Mashallah/Subhanallah/alhamdulillah (Whichever one applies)

A common misconception about Islam. Even if muslim women are happy and testify that the misconception is not true then until the end of time there will always be people trying to cause disunity in Islam and spread lies about Islam to all non-muslims. Even when people do convert to Islam the argument is either they are brainwashed or they are complete loonies :brother::sister:

This one converted to Islam. Subhanallah

if the atheist really wanted to find out whether or not women are oppressed, how come he asked the men? ???

**Ansar Al-'Adl** · 02-21-2005

lol, hash, your story reminded me of another one.

At one khutbah the Imaam was discussing family relations and decided to ask a question. He said "Everyone who is afraid of his wfe, stand up."

They all stood up excpet for one young man. The brothers around him stared at him with disbelief and said "MashAllah brother! you must be a very brave man!"

The young man looked up at them in dismay and said " By Allah! My wife broke my legs! I can't stand!"

jazzakallah khair for this article brother ansar i missed it before, before reading this I thought in the Koran moslems where told to beat there women

Far7an · 02-21-2005

The Quran teaches us that we are allowed to hit our wifes after using all other means possible, but we are not to hit them on there faces, and we should not strike hard.

Surah AN-NISA (WOMEN) Verse 34
Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard in (the husband's) absence what Allah would have them guard. As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them (lightly); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them Means (of annoyance): For Allah is Most High, great (above you all).

you need read it in arabic to understand that verse it does not mean "beat" and the prophet (swh) also explained the meaning to this verse where it means to only tap, prohet (swh) was so kind to his wives never once did he mistreat or hit any of them an excellent example, anyone who beats a women is just coward

**Ansar Al-'Adl** · 02-22-2005

The word is idribuhunna.

One meaning is to "leave them" as a last resort. The other is to "use light force on them" as a last resort. You decide which interpretation you agree with.

interesting .. we all know its DISALLOWED in Islam .. and for sUm Reason if it DOEs cum to that Extent .. then the husbands shud only Tap them Slightly ... the only reason why they wud beat their wives is coz they are Quik Tempered .. n cant control their Anger .. n those who Beat their Wives arent Called MEN at all ..

However if the husband keeps beating the Wife continuously.. then the Wife shud take some STRONG actions n not just Sit there geting beaten up for it can AFFECT the CHILDREN as well..
