Click here Monday, 29 July 2024 Embargoed until 23:30 BST on Monday 29th July / 00:30 CEST on Tuesday 30th July NEWS RELEASE Adolescent girls face alarming rates of intimate partner violence 30 July 2024 --- Among adolescent girls who have been in a relationship, nearly a quarter (24%) – close to 19 million - will have experienced physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence by the time they turn 20 years old, as highlighted by a new analysis from the World Health Organization (WHO) published today in The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health. Almost 1 in 6 (16%) experienced such violence in the past year. “Intimate partner violence is starting alarmingly early for millions of young women around the world,” said Dr Pascale Allotey, Director of WHO’s Sexual and Reproductive Health and Research department. “Given that violence during these critical formative years can cause profound and lasting harms, it needs to be taken more seriously as a public health issue – with a focus on prevention and targeted support.” Partner violence can have devastating impacts on young people’s health, educational achievement, future relationships, and lifelong prospects. From a health perspective, it heightens the likelihood of injuries, depression, anxiety disorders, unplanned pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections, and many other physical and psychological conditions. High rates of violence against adolescent girls reflect deeply entrenched inequalities This study draws on existing data to provide, for the first time, a detailed analysis of the prevalence of physical and/or sexual partner violence experienced by 15–19-year-old girls who have been in intimate relationships. It also identifies broader social, economic and cultural factors that increase their risks. While violence against adolescent girls occurs everywhere, the authors highlight significant differences in prevalence. Based on WHO’s estimates, the worst affected regions are Oceania (47%) and central sub-Saharan Africa (40%), for instance, while the lowest rates are in central Europe (10%) and central Asia (11%). Between countries, there is also a substantive range: from an estimated 6% adolescent girls subjected to such violence in the least affected countries, to 49% in those with the highest rates. The new analysis found that intimate partner violence against adolescent girls is most common in lower-income countries and regions, in places where there are fewer girls in secondary school, and where girls have weaker legal property ownership and inheritance rights compared to men. Child marriage (before the age of 18 years) significantly escalates risks, since spousal age differences create power imbalances, economic dependency, and social isolation – all of which increase the likelihood of enduring abuse. Adolescent girls need targeted services and support The study highlights the urgent need to strengthen support services and early prevention measures tailored for adolescents, alongside actions to advance women’s and girls’ agency and rights – from school-based programmes that educate both boys and girls on healthy relationships and violence prevention, to legal protections, and economic empowerment. Since many adolescents lack their own financial resources, they can face particular challenges in leaving abusive relationships. “The study shows that to end gender-based violence, countries need to have policies and programmes in place that increase equality for women and girls,” said study author Dr Lynnmarie Sardinha, Technical Officer for Violence against Women Data and Measurement at WHO. “This means ensuring secondary education for all girls, securing gender-equal property rights and ending harmful practices such as child marriage, which are often underpinned by the same inequitable gender norms that perpetuate violence against women and girls.” Currently, no country is on track to eliminate violence against women and girls by the 2030 Sustainable Development Goal target date. Ending child marriage – which affects 1 in 5 girls globally– and expanding girls’ access to secondary education will be critical factors for reducing partner violence against adolescent girls. WHO supports countries to measure and address violence against women, including efforts to strengthen prevention and response within the health care sector. New WHO guidelines on prevention of child marriage are planned for release by the end of 2024. Notes for editors The study, Intimate partner violence against adolescent girls: regional and national prevalence estimates and associated country-level factors, analyzes both lifetime prevalence and prevalence over the past 12 months of physical and/or sexual partner violence against 15-19 year old girls. Other types of violence, including psychological violence, are not included due to lack of an agreed internationally comparable measure. It uses data from WHO’s Global database on prevalence of violence against women, published in 2018, which draws on data collected between 2000 and 2018 from 161 countries. Bayesian hierarchical modelling methods were used to generate internationally comparable estimates between countries. This study was funded by the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Development Office through the WHO-UN Women Joint Programme on Strengthening Violence Against Women Data, and the United Nations’ Special Programme of Research, Development, and Research Training in Human Reproduction (HRP).

'Tawbah’ refers to asking repentance from Allah for the sins that we commit. It provides us with the opportunity to return our hearts back to Allah and also opens doors of blessings and removes hurdles and obstacles from our lives. Making sincere repentance or Tawbah raises a Muslim’s stature with Allah. But to make proper Tawbah requires three important steps. According to many scholars, if one of these three is missing, then the repentance is not sincere. Read this very interesting article below to learn how proper Tawbah can truly bring a transformation to our lives.

Assalamu alaikum , We are all hurting at the moment at the plight of our brothers and sisters in Palestine and in Gaza in particular. We are also so humbled and inspired by their faith 😢. It's easy in this climate to start feeling helpless and to lose our motivation for everyday things. Our children feel it too. But we must show our children that there are things we can and should do. I wanted to share some things with you that I think we can all do: 1. 🤲 Du'a: It is the weapon of the Believer after all. Our du'as are a powerful means to seeking help and aid from Allah for our brothers and sisters in Palestine. No du'a is wasted. Gather your children together and make du'a sincerely for our brothers and sisters. 2. 📣 Raise your voice: Whether it be through attending peaceful protests, complaining to media regulators about bias or innacurate reporting, writing to your MP or local politicians, or choosing to avoid spending your money on products and businesses that take advantage of occupied land, there are things we can all do to put pressure on those who oppress our brothers and sisters or those who aid and abet oppression. Decide as a family to buy Palestinian products like olive oil and dates from Palestinian farmers. 3. 🗣️ Spread awareness: Many people are ignorant regarding the oppression, occupation and colonisation of Palestine. They are ignorant of the international treaties and law that the occupying forces ignore and break. They are ignorant about the siege of Gaza. Increase you own knowledge and awareness of this issue and share what you know with those in your circles of influence. 4. 🕌 Teach your children the significance of Masjid al-Aqsa: It is essential that we teach our children love for Masjid al-Aqsa. Tell them the story of the Isra and Mi'raj and how the Muslims entered Jerusalem peacefully and how Jews, Muslims and Christians lived side by side in that region for centuries. Each generation must keep the love for Masjid al-Aqsa alive. 5. ⚖️ Help your children understand that this life is a test and that the ultimate victory is for the Believers: Our brothers and sisters in Palestine are being tested. And we too are being tested in a different way. Teach your children the stories of the Prophets and the Seerah of our Prophet ﷺ so that they understand how Believers in the past have been tested and what has brought about their success and victory. Remind them that on the Day of Judgement, our martyred brothers and sisters will be high in status and will feel that they never suffered. And the oppressors will be horrified at their punishment on the Day of Justice. On a separate note, I believe it's also more important than ever that we connect our children to the Qur'an. So I wanted to invite you to this FREE live webinar: “Alif to Ya and Beyond: A Parent's Roadmap to Teaching Kids Qur'an” on Thursday 2nd November. In this webinar I will share my method for teaching children to read and go on to memorise the Qur'an. I'll talk about how to connect your child with the Qur'an so that they love it and begin to read it fluently and go on to read the Qur'an from cover to cover and begin to understand it too. Whether you are just beginning your child's Qur'anic education or looking to enhance their existing learning experience, this webinar is for you. Date: Thursday 2nd November Time: 7pm London [GMT] (2pm New York [EST]) Duration: Approximately 90 minutes Reserve your spot today by registering for the webinar here. Let's inspire our children with the greatest gift of all - the gift of the Qur'an. I look forward to having you with me on Thursday for what I hope will be an enlightening webinar. May Allah bless you and may Allah have mercy upon and grant victory to our brothers and sisters in Gaza. Ameen.
