Wife beating

Mustafa a 15-month suspended sentence and fine for inciting violence against women.

Mustafa's attorney argued his client was not expressing his personal opinion, but simply reiterating Islamic writings from the 13th and 19th centuries.

"The beating must never be in exaggerated, blind anger, in order to avoid serious harm [to the woman]."

He adds, "It is forbidden to beat her on the sensitive parts of her body, such as the face, breast, abdomen, and head. Instead, she should be beaten on the arms and legs," using a "rod that must not be stiff, but slim and lightweight so that no wounds, scars, or bruises are caused."

The sheikh said the aim of the beating is to cause the woman to feel some emotional pain, without humiliating her or harming her physically. Wife-beating, he said, must be the last resort to which the husband turns in punishing his wife. The husband's third step when the wife is rebellious.

First, he must reprimand her, without anger. Next, he must distance her from the conjugal bed. Only if these two methods fail should the husband turn to beating.

The majority of the women portrayed in the television episodes were housewives.

The people were questioned about their reactions to violence in television dramas.

"Women deserve to be beaten," responded one viewer.

"A husband should beat his wife if she does something wrong," said another.

One woman said "men are so cruel to women. They should be merciful."

A young man commented beating a woman makes her "more stubborn."

Have a nice day !

I am not married because my ex wife wanted me to beat her so that she can call the police. I do not like to see a woman hurt. But, my EX can not stop her meanness with her current husband. She drives him crazy. I feel sorry for him. I am free from shame, from wars, from frustration. Pangasinan is a very wonderful place to live.

I grew up to the words said in front of GOD and family. I will honor, obey and respect. Those are words I still carry with me until this day.
