The Islamic center in Illinois is rocked by sexual allegations against the Imam. The article describes the crisis against a background that is all too prevalent in islamic centers around the USA.

Mirza Ashraf
Neither religion nor any other philosophy or science of life is a warranty of virtuosity. Man and only man must suppress his natural desires and conform to rules to create a moral life or a society.

Very well stated by Mirza Sahib. I may add that it is incumbent upon the society to safeguard the vulnerable from predators who cannot suppress their natural/un-natural impulses to harm the innocents.
