Subhan Zaib repeatedly attacked women. This may have had to do with his cultural milieu. One of them he stabbed in the neck, which is reminiscent of “When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks” (Qur’an 47:4). As for the others, there is, of course, domestic violence in all cultures. So to note that Zaib is from a Muslim background 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
Meanwhile, why did authorities repeatedly release Zaib? Are they just too overwhelmed to deal with crimes of this nature? Or were they afraid of being charged with “Islamophobia”?
“Man, 26, who ‘slashed teen at subway station, choked woman in hotel and attacked volunteer in church’ was arrested and released FIVE TIMES in NYC before being detained on rape charge in Baltimore,” by Alyssa Guzman, DailyMail.com, June 19, 2022:
A Queens man, 26, who allegedly slashed a 19-year-old woman in New York City’s Lower East Side and beat another in a Brooklyn hotel, before raping a woman in Baltimore, was finally held without bail in Maryland – despite being arrested and released five times in the Big Apple during his 11-day crime spree.
Subhan Zaib, 26, reportedly began his spree of crimes, which were mostly against women, on May 30 when he threatened his ex-girlfriend in Queens and ended with a brutal rape in Baltimore on June 14.
They included allegedly knifing a 19-year-old woman inside the Delancey Street/Essex Street station in the Lower East Side on June 10.
Zaib first started his reign of terror on May 30 between 3am and 4am, his ex-girlfriend, who asked to remain anonymous, told the New York Daily News (NYDN). He reportedly called her, only to reach her father, and threatened to kill her and her family if she did not give back the $500 he said he owed her.
‘I’m coming over to get the money and if you don’t give it to me, I’m going to kill her and your family,’ he told the father, the complaint – viewed by the NYDN – read.
The couple split up seven years ago and she said he was ‘always so violent when I was around him.’
However, she said she was surprised to [sic] he ‘could harm a random person,’ but not shocked the slashing happened, she told the NYDN.
‘When I was associated with him he would make death threats, and would stalk people he believed had done him wrong,’ she told the NYDN.
He was arrested after the threats and released on ‘non-monetary conditions,’ the Queen’s District Attorney’s Office said.
Two days later, he would allegedly terrorize his Richmond Hill neighbor, Johann Poveda, by cutting the wires to his surveillance cameras and ripping his Ring doorbell off.
Poveda lived on the floor below Zaib’s family in the house and said he and his wife ‘called the cops on him multiple times.’
Poveda told the NYDN that Zaib caused him constant anxiety and that the man’s father told him he was ‘mentally ill but he would not take his medicine.’
‘His father was afraid of his son,’ Poveda told the New York Daily News. ‘We lived next to them for about five years and it wasn’t a pleasant experience at all.
‘He was very problematic. He threatened us multiple times.’
Only mere minutes later, Zaib reportedly pulled a knife on a man on 108th Street and Atlantic Avenue. The man called authorities and he was arrested for criminal mischief. menacing, criminal possession of a weapon, trespassing, and harassment.
He was once again released without bail.
By June 4, his crimes escalated significantly and became more violent and extended into another borough.
He reportedly punched, choked, and hit a woman with a belt and threatened her with a knife inside a room at 369 Hotel on Glenmore Avenue in Brooklyn, prosecutors alleged.
Zaib was once again released without bail, despite the fact that second-degree assault is eligible for such, the NYDN reported….
Three days later, Zaib would hide inside the women’s bathroom at the Rock Church in Maspeth, Queens around 9.30pm. When an unidentified woman entered the bathroom and found him, she allegedly told him: ‘You can’t be in here.’
He then turned off the lights and pinned her against the wall, the NYDN reported. She was able to break free and get help and told another churchgoer: ‘He tried to rape me.’
The man then followed Zaib. The criminal then threatened the man, telling him: ‘I can f**king kill you. I can f**king shoot you,’ the complaint read.
He was arrested and charged with second-degree assault, but was released without bail again.
On June 10, he attacked the 19-year-old, who was taken to Lenox Hill hospital in stable condition.
The slashing happened around 5am and he reportedly put her in a chokehold and slash her neck and back several times. Her injuries were non-life-threatening.
Four days later he would end up in Charm City, where he would met his next victim outside of a Walgreens. He reported asked the woman for a lighter before ordering her into a wooded area near the store at knifepoint, a criminal complaint read.
The woman told police she was walking to the bus stop after shopping in Family Dollar when Zaib approached her, WMAR 2 News reported.
He then put a knife to her back and ordered her to walk behind a building and strip for him before going to the wooded area, where he raped her and cut a piece of her hair off and forced her to call him ‘pimp.’
Zaib then reportedly took her money and ran away from the scene. He was arrested the next day after entering a business near where the assault happened and told authorities he had just moved to Baltimore.
The business owner told authorities Zaib had purchased the knife the day of the rape, WMAR 2 News reported….
