No kid deserves to be beaten like that. What kind of message is that giving to the child? That it's ok to hit others? I'm disgusted.
No wonder children who are taught to read the Quran, don't know much about Islam. How about teaching them good behavior and manners with it. That is part of Islam too!

But how do you know he was being hit for something Quran related? How do you know that he didn't do something more serious.
Though I doubt that he could have done anything so serious as to deserve that... perhaps if he bashed another kid to the point of hospitalization... them maybe...

i think the media is affecting our own muslims...if u see a guy wearing that red and white checkerred thingy on his head and if hes hitting a kid, its gotta be religion based...

It's the parents who have to teach good manners to their children in the first place.
physical abuse Iz not good, it can cause traumas too...

umm lol I just assumed cuz the brother said he was hit like that for memorising the Quran wrongly (or summat).
I agree with ur second sentence though. But that's how kids get beaten in mosques anyway. My nephew, then 7, was hit on his arm so badly, his elbow was swollen and he was crying in pain for hours afterwards. And that was going for a drink of water. I guess that's what was in my head when I posted.

There is a fine line between disciplining and an a$$-whooping/beating. The former is required in certain cases, the latter is not (unless you're defending yourself).
Someone said to the Prophet, "Pray to God against the idolaters and curse them." The Prophet replied, "I have been sent to show mercy and have not been sent to curse." (Muslim)

i dnt believ that discipline is necessary in certain cases...i think it is just an ongoing process through a child or adolescents life...it is something which should be consisitent in all cases and situations in life...not implemented in some and discarded in others...

Re: School Kid Breaks The Rules And Gets Whipped For It
No child should be wooopd like there's no tomorrow.
As for the issues on getting hit when reciting wrong and so forth, I for one think it should not be done, why? Simple reason, you want them to get a connection with their religion when reading the words of God, building love and respect with their teachers and religion...But after you get a few how should i put it, 'shots' to put you back in your place ,you lose a bit of the love and affection that you had for learning. After a few times the child loses faith in his/her teacher 'how badly will they get hit today?'...Therefore this results to some trying to avoid going to 'learn'....
Can lead to various different things from 'chav life' to just sheeeeer ignorance of learning... All in all im against it
peace
I had a wrestle with an alligator, i had a tussle with a whale, I handcuffed lightning, thrown thunder in jail! Only last week i murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalised a brick, im so mean i make medicine sick

I remember when I went to Pakistan at the age of five. We used to get caned if we were late, which I often was. Not my fault as I couldn't jump over the irrigation canals in the fields. One day, late again, I couldn't face more caning so I played truant (lol at 5!). My mum found out and gave me the beating of my life - so much for avoiding the cane. I thought my mum had been really unfair, so a few days later I wagged school again. Lol! Just shows beating doesn't work.

My son has respect. He knows that he has to follow the rules. And I didn't have to beat the crap out of him for him to learn that!!!

So it is just me that belives that the teacher was a racist that hit a black child? You never heard "nobody hates blacks more than arabs", im not saying all arabs are racists, im saying that teacher was.

There is no way of us knowing why the teacher did that, why it was video taped, or if other children were treated that way. Lets not turn this into something we know nothing of.
