DAR AL HARB / ISLAM: THE RELIGION OF WIFE BASHING

A faith in wife bashing
By Andrew Bolt

A German judge who ruled that the Koran permitted a man to beat his wife - and so turned down a Muslim woman’s request for a divorce - has been told she got the religion all wrong:



Muslim leaders agreed that Muslims living here must be judged by the German
legal code. But they were just as offended by what they characterized as the
judge’s misinterpretation of a much- debated passage in the Koran governing
relations between husbands and wives. While the verse cited by the judge does
say husbands may beat their wives for being disobedient — an interpretation
embraced by Wahhabi and some other fundamentalist Islamic groups —
mainstream Muslims have long rejected wife-beating as a relic of
the medieval era
.

I do hope and trust that is true.
