Alleged attempt by the Egyptian People’s
Assembly, EPA, to enact a law which will make
it possible for husbands to have sex with their
dead wives for up to six hours after their death
has sparked an uproar in the country with
female activists describing the idea as undermining the status of women. Known as ‘’farewell intercourse law,’’ it would
also lower the minimum age of marriage for
women to 14, and rid women’s rights of
getting education and employment, according
to the local media. The controversial new law is claimed to be part
of a raft of measures being introduced by the
Islamist-dominated parliament. Egypt’s National Council for Women, NCW, is
reportedly campaigning against the changes,
pointing out that ‘’marginalising and
undermining the status of women would
negatively affect the country’s human
development.’’ The Egyptian al-Ahram newspaper quoted the
Head of the NCW, Dr Mervat al-Talawi, as stating
in her letter to the EPA’s Speaker, Dr Saad al-
Katatni, that the proposed new law had
negative ‘’religious interpretations.’’ The subject of a husband having sex with his
dead wife reportedly arose in May 2011, when
a Moroccan cleric, Zamzami Abdul Bari said
marriage remains valid even after death,
adding that women have the right to have sex
with their dead husbands. TV anchor Jaber al-Qarmouty slammed the
notion of letting a husband have sex with his
wife after her death under the so-called
‘Farewell Intercourse’ draft law.
