Exactly at 5 o'clock I stopped my car and parked it just near the hospital gate. I got out of it and entered the hospital. I was there to visit my sister who has been admitted there this afternoon. I had many things in my mind, washing my car, paying the bills and other normal things.
My sister was there lying on her bed, she had a flu and throat inflamation.
I was about to sit down when suddenly I saw one of my relatives coming towards us, between her hands a very beautiful baby. she was a girl, as I later knew from her. I love children in general, so i had the baby in my hands, feeling happy to touch her little head which was covered with black soft hair. She was so pretty, and so sweet, that i couldnt stop myself from looking at her.
"What's her name?" I exclaimed.
I was astonished to hear the answer from sister saying " S......."..."Her name is S.......".
"What a nice name she's got"
My sister exchanged a suspicious look with my relative, the one who brought the girl.
"What? What's the matter?" I asked them with a smile on my face.
"Well, this girl has no parents", my sister said.
"No parents, how come?"
"She was found in one of the Masjids in our town in a small box. Somebody put her there and left. Some people found her while they were going for Fajar prayer."
"Hmmmm"
" Then she was brought to the hospital and now nobody knows who she is and who her parents are. She will stay here for some time and then she will be taken to Muscat where they will take care of her."
"Offfff"
" Leave her away". "Take her back, otherwise you might be in trouble"
Some commented.
In a few seconds, she was taken back.
Since then, i couldnt stop mysef thinking about that innocent girl.

NOW.
Is this girl guilty?
What's her guilt?
Her mother left her like a piece of cloth. Her mother who, of course, must have made love with her boyfrind, became pregnant, felt ashamed to keep her, so she decided to throw her away like a dead goat.
What is the guilt of this poor girl?
Strange, quite strange.
I feel sick when i remember her mother. The result of the sexual ecstacy she had, is a poor unguilty girl.
I wish I could catch her mother and I will show her someting very impotant that she forgot to take when she left her child.
Boss!

oh man this problem is becoming more common. our hosiptals are full with kids who 's been dumped there. some women even do the unthinkable and KILL (murder) their kids. i actually found a little baby (must've been 1 or 2 days old according to the police) in the garbage outside my house about a year ago. so cruel but who is to be blamed? is it society who put so much pressure on these women to abandon their babies? it's really a case of abandon your child or be abandoned by society.
i know the easy answer is to say let's stick to Islam but we all know not everybody will and we all know these kind cases will happen all the time.

My freind, Big Mo, unfortunately our hospitals are not that modernized. Otherwise they can know these children's parents by studying their DNA, which is never the same with two people.
By then, girls will think a hundred times before going out with a boy, and before throwing their babies on the roads. They think that it's over. hh. no it aint over, there's a judgement day where all secrets and deeds are to shown and judged by Allah.

Boss, I dont think we should put the blame on the hospitals .. I am sure they can check the DNA .. if not in towns in main hospitals in muscat.

There are many unhumane reason other than unmarried womans children. Some of the thrown kids are thrown because pof physical disabilities or because the patents wanted a boy while the baby is a girl!!!

Yes! it is a problem .. and it should be solved. I dont know how can a mother who carried her child for 9 months do that!! cant they think that there are millions of mothers in the world who wish to have a baby and they cant!! If she is not ready to be a mother why she puts herself in such a situation. Why did she commit that sin?? (in case it was with her boyfriend). Its unbeleivable !!

Now, the kids will live in the orphanage waiting for a caring hand to come and take care of them!!!

How do you know she feels unguilty?? Like you said above, judged by Allah - Not humans

U guys would be talking trash about her whether she kept the baby or not. If she kept the baby, there would be a thread here titled "Girl gives birth out of wedlock"

This is WRONG by all means, but that is between her and God.

Does it still happen now adays :confused: Icant believe that

some throw their kids cause they are very poor .. can't take care of them .. I dono who's more guilty.. a mother who throws her infant in a mousque, hospital, or a garbage can .. or a mother who gives birth to kids whom their fathers aren't known.. or a mother who dumps her kids anywhere in the street cause she can't feed them.. or or or .... people don't know how big such issues are.. they are so ignarant about their responsibilities to such matters.. therefore I don't call them mothers.. even animals love their kids & have mercy on them.. shame on them..

I would adopt her.

She'd get my family name too.

Too bad that it wouldn't be allowed, as she'd grow up just fine here in my house - learning to play soccer, jump rope, eating meals with family, going to a nice school, feeling wanted and loved.

Hey there Boss its good to meet you i am Neena .. you probably already heard about me :) anyway going back to ur topic!!

For sure its so very sad seeing what is happening in our country not only Oman but in so many other Islamic countries. for sure such things happen a lot in Europe ..but this is not what we tend to expect in Islamic countries as for the religion and culture!!

However - you can never blame the child.. as the child is innocent as nothing else. Its a pure angle.. who was just brought into this life with out any thought or even any explanation. Its so sad to see how we as Muslims and human being could have such a very low act.

If one knows that what they are doing could bring this why on the first place do such an act!!!

All I can say to those mothers out there who tend to bring angles into this life and than just a banded them because they can not take care of the their child.. or because of many other issue which is to do with religion, culture, families.. etc.... THEY ARE FOOLS!!!

Only fools could do such things... completely heartless!! There is no way in hell I would leave my baby even if "god forbid" I brought the child while I am single!!! How could someone live with them selves!!

Very sad!! :(

Well, do we know the story behind it? If we don't really know what actualy happened, why is most people convinced that the mother is guilty for a reason or another? I can give you another senario, may be its less likley to happen, but it could happen. What if the mother died while giving birth to the girl, and then the girl ended up with people who couldnt take care of her. I mean, everyone assumes that a mother could give her child away, then isnt it more likley for any other person to give away the child?I tis more likley to happen from someone else, because simply the person is not her mother!
My point is, do we have to blame the mother if we didn't really know if the mother was actualy involved or not?!
Thanks

Navi... I have visited seven kids living alone.. mother is married & have her own life & father is in the street all the time.. kids are alone cause their parents have nothing to give them.. so they have been dumped cause they are poor nobody to take care of them!

I once opend a big topic about this here ...any ways
YES it happens alot and thats on the rise! unfourtionatly

babies thrown in Hospitals, Masjids, Sooq,,,near gurbage if not within!!!!! and I wonder who does that if she or he has a single Piece of heart in Them.....!

Agree there is problem about those kids .. but do any one know after she go to Muscat where she will end …
I just want to know are there any KIDS home or house for those kids .. and did the government allowed some families .. who don't have children to take her or his …


Do we need to have a Law in such cases like this …


just comments

How many here would be in support of MoonChild and I adopting one or 2 of these poor abondoned children ?

They would get their own rooms and take on my family name - but keep their previous family name as a middle name.

Sulo,

there are orphanages houses.

The Government does allow a person to adopt a child.. but yes there are rules to follow and the government will start to do some investigations on you.. long process... but inthe end it is for the child's security..
