‘I don’t know what the Quran is reading’: Eric Adams kills Zoharan Mamdani on the stance of prostitution; Question on religious values

Mayor Eric Edams targeted his main rival at the upcoming New York City, Zoharan Mamdani, criticized Democrat’s record to support the disintegration of prostitution and questioned how to align such stance with his religious faith.Talking to reporters on Sunday, Adams said, “I can’t be more clear. I am a man of God, as Mamdani says that he is a Muslim. I don’t know in his Quran that it is said in his Quran that it is okay for a woman to be on the roads selling her body. What I am reading.The religion of Mamdani is Islam, which prevents prostitution under the laws of morality.Reporting exposed the history of changing the history of Mammadani after reporting, so that selling sex would no longer be considered as a crime. According to the New York Post, Adams argued that such a policy promotes smuggling and crime, saying, “I think he is lost on the fact that sex trafficking is very part of prostitution. We are trying to reduce crime and he is talking about legalizing sex work.”He said, “You are not doing any service for a woman who is on the road which is forced to sell his body for any reason. No one should be on the roads selling our body. No one.”

Mamdani’s record on sex work

According to the New York Post, Mammadani has been a frequent lawyer for the Dikminalization since his first run for the State Assembly in 2020, when he announced: “Not only we should reduce sex work, we need a comprehensive platform of justice for all.”Since then, the 33 -year -old Socialist has sponsored several bills in Albani that will remove criminal punishment for sex work in the state of New York. In 2021, he told colleagues at an assembly meeting, “I would like to register my support [decriminalising sex work] Legislation, my curiosity for that debate and my fundamental belief that sex work is ”, according to the New York Post.Despite that record, Mamdani has said little about the issue since entering the mayorl race, raising concerns among critics that he can try to pursue such measures from the city hall if he is elected. As the mayor, he will not be able to change the state law on his own, but he will organize a powerful platform to campaign for reforms and can also remove prostitution enforcement by NYPD.

Supporter versus critic

Supporters of the decrystation argue that legitimizing sex work makes those people in the industry at least weak for violence with pimps, clients and police. However, research at places such as Nevada and parts of Europe has shown that smuggling often increases when prostitution is valid, as organized crime expands to meet demand.Sonia Osorio, Executive Director of National Organization for Women NYC, warned that Mamdani’s plans may turn the city into a “sex tourism destination” compared to the Red Light District of Amsterdam. The post to Rosa Sanchhez of the Rouzvelt Avenue alliance said that his Queens community is already struggling with prostitution and gang activity, and it was predicted that the cases would deteriorate under the case.Republican candidate Curtis Sliva also warned that if Mamdani wins, the “all 350 neighborhoods” were converted into red-light districts and put the city at risk.Mamdani’s campaign returned on Sunday, although it stopped confirming whether he still supports the decimalization. A spokesperson said, “In the careless budget of Mayor Adams, Safe Horizon has cut more than $ 3 million in funding, causing damage to thousands of victims of crimes related to sex trafficking and prostitution. As the mayor, Zoharan would prioritize real public safety for all, including investing $ 40M through their Community Safety Department towards the services of the victims. ,Former Governor Andrew Kuoomo stressed that he had opposed prolonged efforts by Mamdani and other progressives to reduce prostitution during his time in Albani.Adams, running as an independent for re -election, implicated the debate as a question of protecting weak women and ensuring public safety. “Our city needs to be a safe city. It should not be a city where women are standing at corners, or boys stand at the corners, or young people are standing at the corners selling their bodies,” he said. “If it is his faith, it is a threat to our city.”
