There is, of course, domestic violence in all cultures. So to post this is just “Islamophobic,” right? Wrong: there is domestic violence in all cultures, but only in one does it have divine sanction. Islam doesn’t teach that man may kill his wife, but once you’ve allowed him to beat her, accidents will happen.
The Qur’an teaches that men are superior to women and should beat those from whom they “fear disobedience”: “Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them.” — Qur’an 4:34
Muhammad’s child bride, Aisha, says in a hadith that Muhammad “struck me on the chest which caused me pain, and then said: ‘Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you?’” — Sahih Muslim 2127
An another hadith states: “Rifa`a divorced his wife whereupon `AbdurRahman bin Az-Zubair Al-Qurazi married her. `Aisha said that the lady (came), wearing a green veil (and complained to her (Aisha) of her husband and showed her a green spot on her skin caused by beating). It was the habit of ladies to support each other, so when Allah’s Messenger came, Aisha said, ‘I have not seen any woman suffering as much as the believing women. Look! Her skin is greener than her clothes!’” — Sahih Bukhari 7.77.5825
“Arrest after knife madness,” translated from “Festnahme nach Messer-Wahnsinn,” by Julian Rabe, Bild, September 9, 2022 (thanks to Medforth):
Verden – Terrible bloody act in the supermarket!
In an Edeka shopping center in Verden, a man (40) stabbed a woman (27) with several knife wounds on Wednesday afternoon.
Particularly cruel: the little daughter (3) of the woman from Eritrea was there and had to watch at close range how her mother was critically injured.
According to BILD information, a brave shop employee (58) prevented worse things from happening and was able to distract the perpetrator for a short time. He was arrested by the police in the market and is now in custody. The man from Afghanistan is being investigated for attempted manslaughter.
The attacked woman is currently in the hospital fighting for her life. The girl was initially handed over to the youth welfare office.
It is still unclear why the attack happened. Possibly a relationship act, victims and perpetrators should have known each other before. At the time of the crime, the woman was with a man in the supermarket.
