This has often resulted in the abuse of children by Muslim parents, guardians and teachers for not praying/reciting the Qur'an. For example, in Muslim-majority countries like [[Saudi Arabia]] and [[Bangladesh]], and even in non-Muslim countries like the [[United Kingdom]], [[Italy]] and [[Canada]] where a 13-year-old girl was killed by her father for not praying. | |||
