<blockquote data-quote="TΞΞNSTAR™" data-source="post: 2204192" data-attributes="member: 88129">well... “How&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; does anyone of you beat his wife as he beats the stallion camel and then&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; embrace (sleep with) her?” Considering the rates of domestic violence&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; all over the world, this question, which was asked by the Prophet Muhammad&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; more than 1400 years ago, is applicable today to all people of all faiths&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; and cultures.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Despite&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; the universality of domestic violence, Muslim men involved in wife-abuse&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; have attracted more attention than others. Horrific stories of husbands&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; beating their wives while claiming that the Qur’an gives them the right&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; to do so are highlighted in the media. At the same time, Muslims assert&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; that Islam honors and respects women, giving them rights that promote and&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; preserve their human dignity.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; The&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; crux of the matter lies in the need for the distinction between Islam and&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; the behavior of some Muslims. Each and every Muslim has rather unfairly&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; been caste as a representative of his or her faith, and his or her&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; behavior is immediately a reflection of Islam, not of the Muslim as a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; human individual.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; This&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; special file aims at clarifying the position Islam takes regarding&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; wife-beating. Although the material presented, which is compiled from&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; various IslamOnline.net pages, concentrates on the very specific issue of&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; wife-beating, it is essential to point out that Islam has extensively&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; elaborated on the rights of women at all times and in totality.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;
