Islamic Violence Against Women
Ethics Forum ^ | December 8, 2015 | Alice C. Linsley

Posted on 12/08/2015 9:38:54 AM PST by Jandy on Genesis

According her testimony in the Hadith, Muhammad physically struck his favorite wife Aisha for leaving the house without his permission. His less-favored wives would have fared no better. Aisha narrates, "He struck me on the chest which caused me pain."

Muhammad's wife complained of the abuse that Muslim women suffered relative to other women. "Aisha said, 'I have not seen any woman suffering as much as the believing women.'" (Bukhari (72:715) Of course, she did not live to see the abuse of Christian and Yazidi women at the hands of ISIS.

Sheikh Yousef al-Qaradhawi, a famous Sunni cleric, said here that "It is forbidden to beat the woman, unless it is necessary." He went on to say that "one may beat only to safeguard Islamic behavior," leaving no doubt that wife-beating is a matter of religious sanction.

Nearly half Saudi women are beaten up by their husbands or other family members at home and many of them are hit by sticks and head cover, according to a university study.

"It is forbidden to beat the woman, unless it is necessary."

If “feminism” really had anything to do with what is good for women, “feminists” would be at the forefront in supporting Trump’s call to shut down Muslim migration into the US. But, since “feminism” is really only about supporting all extreme left-wing causes, they will join in the whining about how Muslims should be allowed free and easy access to the US in ever increasing numbers.

How about this.
Keep all muslims out of this country because their culture promotes mutilating women.

'I have not seen any woman suffering as much as the believing women.'

Well, Aisha, you knew he was a murdering, misogynistic pedophile when you married him. You deserve all the suffering you get.

Stupid is as stupid does.

"Well, Aisha, you knew he was a murdering, misogynistic pedophile when you married him. You deserve all the suffering you get."

She was six years old when her father, warlord Abu Bakr, gave her to Muhammad in marriage. Do you really think she chose this? Do you really think she had the power to resist?

Do you always blame pedophilia on the victims?
