Becoming a Christian is a death sentence in Somalia.
The al-Qaeda-linked jihadist army al-Shabaab is waging a violent campaign to exterminate Christians. Christian men and boys are beaten, abducted, and executed. Under the guise of enforcing Sharia law, Christian women and girls are publicly humiliated, raped, forcibly married as children, and slaughtered to erase their faith forever. Even the government brutally persecutes Christians.
It’s one of the absolute worst places in the world to be a Christian. Believers are disowned by family members and even executed. One Somali believer recounts his father’s warning: “If you become a Christian, I will be the one to kill you.”
Christians hide in fear of execution. The underground church barely exists, hanging on by threads of whispered prayers and memorized scriptures. Even the slightest suspicion of Christianity – a missed mosque prayer, a different beard, a careless word – can trigger a public execution.
This is genocide.
We are demanding urgent action from the United Nations, the United States, and world leaders to confront Al-Shabaab’s genocidal campaign. Our global legal team is mobilizing – filing advocacy letters and legal submissions to the U.N.
Silence enables the genocide. Together, we must fight for Christians in Somalia.
