And so does the source article:
Dr. Andrew Bostom, M.D., an academic internist specializing in general internal medicine who has also authored several books about the history of Islam, said Muslim communities often prove difficult to convince that vaccinations are appropriate for their children.

“The case against vaccinations is first an Islamic one,” he said, citing a 2011 article by Dr. Majid Katme, spokesman for the Islamic Medical Association in the United Kingdom.

“We are giving our innocent children haram [forbidden] substances and harmful chemicals that destroy their natural immune systems, causing disease, suffering and death,” Dr. Katme wrote.

Now, I don't normal take what WND says, but when it is backed up by the International Medical Council on Vaccinations, I would say it makes his statement seem a bit more true.

However, as i said...perhaps you two know more about this than the medical professionals and the Muslims. (Muslims are quoted in the International Medical Council on Vaccinations article.

Mind sharing your sources that they have absolutely no problem with vaccinations, so we can make an informed decision?
