UK-based dating site for Muslim men sparks outrage after advertising for 'virgin brides' and polygamy: 'What have we become?!'

NikkahGram, a UK-registered Muslim matchmaking service, has been operating since 2023 and advertises virgin brides under 35-years-old and polygamous marriages.

The site declares it was founded "facilitate marriage for Muslims who stick to core Islamic values of modesty and submission to Allah without modern excuses".

Delivering his verdict on GB News, Brooks fumed: "Religion means nothing to me, and I respect your right to whatever these communities believe in, but when it it goes against our fundamentals and our morals in this country, there's a problem.

"When I speak out about about the church, I'm never called Christianophobic. If now I'm going to call this out, there will be people that say you're Islamophobic, and that is the problem, people are scared to speak out."

Highlighting the link to the migration crisis and cultural differences in Britain, Brooks added: "I've got a good friend from the boxing community that is a practicing Muslim and really believes in his faith, and he says to me there are people coming from other countries, Afghanistan, Pakistan where they never see women or girls, especially not dressed like they are here.

"And he says, these people are coming over and they are interpreting 2000-year-old religious texts like it is today, so they are taking justification and an excuse from what they read in the Koran to go and do these heinous crimes."

Calling on more Muslim community leaders to speak out on such issues, Brooks told GB News: "He says Adam, we do not want that in our community, these people are extremists. But again, more people like my friend need to speak out and say, you can't come here and you can't do that.

"The police have pleaded with asylum seekers not to sexually assault our women and children. What have we become in this country? I've got two daughters, if I was to tackle one of those asylum seekers, I'd end up in prison.They are coming here and targeting our women and children."

Agreeing with Brooks, former Labour MP Bill Rammell criticised the operations of the "hateful" website: "We do need Muslim community leaders to speak up on these issues, but the vast majority of Muslims do not sign up to this kind of abhorrent extremism.

"When we talk about polygamy, which is one element of this hateful website, the figures globally are less than one per cent of Muslims practice polygamy, and I think the figure is even lower within the UK. But we need to mobilise that law abiding, respectful, vast majority against this."

Questioned by host Alex Armstrong if the GB News panel debating the dating site would be deemed "Islamophobic", Rammell stated: "I don't think it would, but I'm not in favour of those Islamophobia laws.

"I think in this country, you have a right to adhere to your religion, but people have a right to criticise. And if they want to ridicule that religion, I think that's one of the tenets of a free society and free and open debate."

Brooks concluded: "The big problem with the Muslim community that I see from from the outside is when these heinous crimes happen, people want to cover it up.

"And even when they are convicted, come out of prison, they are welcomed back with open arms. How is that so?

"If I knew someone that was a paedophile you know, I'd want to do other things to him.

"When they come out of prison, I would never speak to that person again, I would make their life hell. They would be nowhere near my community, and I think most dads are like that."
