Anni Cyrus Shares Her Experience with Sharia Law in Iran
Iranian born Anni Cyrus came to the United States for freedom, she says. Back in Iran, she had been declared an adult at age 9, and a few years later was sold for fifty American dollars by her father to a man to be his wife. That, she said, is permitted by Sharia Law, since the prophet Mohammad married girls as young as 6 and consummated the marriages when they were 9. Every day, an average of 5-7 little girls are sold in Iran.
Cyrus was abused and imprisoned as a teen, and then escaped to America. She now advocates for women and girls suffering under Sharia. Her mission is to bring hope and healing to women and girls who have been unfortunate enough to be exposed to the plague of Islamic ideology. She experienced, first hand, the horrors of living under Islamic theocracy in Iran.
