Iran: Muslim hunts down and beheads his 19-year-old bride after she fled two days into their forced marriage

Iran: Muslim hunts down and beheads his 19-year-old bride after she fled two days into their forced marriage JUN 16, 2020 4:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER

It is noteworthy that “according to Iranian law,” which is based on Islamic law, “a man can kill his wife without punishment if he catches her with another man.” And also that “the victims’ family does not normally demand the punishment of the murderer.”

That, too, is in accord with Islamic law. According to Islamic law, “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.” However, “not subject to retaliation” is “a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring’s offspring.” (Reliance of the Traveller o1.1-2). In other words, someone who kills his child incurs no legal penalty under Islamic law. In this case the victim was the murderer’s daughter, a victim to the culture of violence and intimidation that such laws help create.

Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. The Palestinian Authority gives pardons or suspended sentences for honor murders. Iraqi women have asked for tougher sentences for Islamic honor murderers, who get off lightly now. Syria in 2009 scrapped a law limiting the length of sentences for honor killings, but “the new law says a man can still benefit from extenuating circumstances in crimes of passion or honour ‘provided he serves a prison term of no less than two years in the case of killing.’” And in 2003 the Jordanian Parliament voted down on Islamic grounds a provision designed to stiffen penalties for honor killings. Al-Jazeera reported that “Islamists and conservatives said the laws violated religious traditions and would destroy families and values.”

Until the encouragement Islamic law gives to honor killing is acknowledged and confronted, more women will suffer.

“Iranian teen bride who fled ‘with another man’ days after her wedding to her cousin is beheaded when jilted husband tracks her down a year later,” by Milly Vincent, Mailonline, June 15, 2020 (thanks to the Geller Report):

A 19-year-old woman has been beheaded by her husband after running away just two days into their forced marriage.

The 23-year-old man, who is also his wife’s cousin, handed himself into the Valiasr police station in Abadan, southwestern Iran, at around 10.30pm on Sunday, while holding a bloody knife.

He told officers that he had beheaded his wife due to her ‘infidelity’ and had left her decapitated body by the Bahar 56 area next to the Bahmanshir River, reports Iran International TV….

According to Iranian law a man can kill his wife without punishment if he catches her with another man, but the young woman’s attempt to leave her husband has led to local media reports citing her as the ‘runaway bride’.

The so-called honour killing took place in the Khuzestan province of Iran, which is known to have a problem with honour killings.

According to social pathologists, many men who commit honour killings suffer from physical and mental illnesses and consider their wives and daughters to be part of their property.

Abbas Jafari Dolatabadi, the former Chief Justice of Khuzestan Province, considers the occurrence of honour killings to be a serious problem in the province.

He stated that the roots of honour killings in Khuzestan have been ‘institutionalised’ and said: ‘Local custom allows these killings to take place, and the perpetrators of these killings are by no means fugitives.

‘Also, unfortunately, honour killings take place in this province in a very tragic way, and the victims’ family does not normally demand the punishment of the murderer.’

The news comes as the Iranian Guardian Council approved a bill to protect minors, after the law’s delay was blamed for the murder of Romina Ashrafi, who was killed last month by her father.

Following initial outcry over Romina’s death, the Iranian top body responded by denying negligence and implying that honour killings would not be prevented by the law.

The spokesman for the Guardian Council, Abassali Kadkhodaei said: ‘A single law cannot solve problems of this kind, which has cultural, social and sometimes economic roots,’.

Editor of Iran International Sadeq Saba said: ‘The latest murder of the 19-year-old woman in Khuzestan, demonstrates that there are not enough protections in place for women across Iran.’

She won’t do that again.

In the article, it says that 91% of worldwide honor killings are done by Muslims. I think that is an arbitrary distinction. Many frustrated lover killings in the US are done, but called something else.

It’s called a whole bunch of years in prison here. That’s the big difference.

Big difference between an “honor killing” and a murder perpetrated by a “frustrated lover”.

Are you saying we don't prosecute honor killings?

I was thinking of motive and psychological mindset, not local tolerance.

Cooking and cleaning is important.

I was, at the time, deeply in love with my first wife, and I asked her to guess what three words I was thinking of (I Love You, of course). She thought for a moment, and replied, “Sex, food, maid.”

My long-term second wife loves that story.

And these interesting cultural customs:

“according to Iranian law,” which is based on Islamic law, “a man can kill his wife without punishment if he catches her with another man.” And also that “the victims’ family does not normally demand the punishment of the murderer.”

That, too, is in accord with Islamic law. According to Islamic law, “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.” However, “not subject to retaliation” is “a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring’s offspring.” (Reliance of the Traveller o1.1-2).

A friend of mine heard a story that Nicole had been passed around to some OJ friend(s), particularly great running back Marcus Allen. (Don't dump on me if it isn't true, the point here is the next remark).

My friend's comment was that OJ had killed Nicole out of insecurity. It was OK for her to date one of his friends, but let her think about going out with a mild-mannered Jewish accountant, and... off with her head. (No substantiation for the second assertion either, but maybe OJ thought there was more between Ron Goldman and Nicole than dropping off her sunglasses.)

A 18 year old girl forced into a cousin marriage runs away and a year later her abandoned spouse finds her a decapitates her. Hell must be being a poor woman or girl in an Islamic state. Here is how families view this approach to settling marital issues:

Abbas Jafari Dolatabadi, the former Chief Justice of Khuzestan Province, considers the occurrence of honour killings to be a serious problem in the province.

He stated that the roots of honour killings in Khuzestan have been ‘institutionalised’ and said: ‘Local custom allows these killings to take place, and the perpetrators of these killings are by no means fugitives.

‘Also, unfortunately, honour killings take place in this province in a very tragic way, and the victims’ family does not normally demand the punishment of the murderer.’
