You grab lists, but you don't understand what's behind them. I'll take a few hits on the marriage ones:

A Muslim man is allowed to beat his wife or wives

Subject to interpretation. Others say it means he will not have sex with her until she straightens up.

A Muslim man is allowed to have four wives at one time

Cultural thing, practiced around the world. Mormons had it too, some still have it.

A Muslim man can divorce his wife or wives instantaneously.

That is not considered proper. In order to prevent capricious divorce, they must live together for three menstrual cycles (three months if menopausal) after the announcement. Any intimacy between them breaks the pending divorce.

A Muslim woman must pay money to the husband by court orders to have the marriage dissolved.

In this case she is considered to be the contract breaker and must give back some or all of the money she got from the husband. The judgement of amount (if any) will be based on whether she's just divorcing for the hell of it, or if she has sound reason.

BTW, here you just admitted women can initiate divorce in Islam.

If a divorced couple wants to remarry each other, the wife must marry another person, must have complete sex with him and must be divorced by him willingly.

This only applies after a third divorce between the same two people. It was invented to stop the then-current practices of constant divorce and remarry. We both believe this is not a good thing, and it isn't because it's supposed to act as a deterrent.

Rich men from the Middle East travel to Southern India to take advantage of this law on financially poor women

Abuse of a loophole. Sickening.
