I understand your point of view and I agree with you in many points. The only problem I have -as I mentioned - is the generalization "Muslims are animals". "They" -there is no such thing as "they" - it may be a group of people or the majority - but you can't judge a billion people. Not every msulim is a hardliner. It's like saying that every German was a nazi back in world War II - there were also people who didn't agree with the system.
I am far from wanting to begin an argument here, and as I said, I totally understand your position -I am just no friend of generalizations since we are all individuals
Well, Fussy, check this one out.... here's your "not animals". This is one of their religious leaders. So, now tell me, if a Catholic Priest said the same thing, that it was ok to beat your wife, as long as you don't hit her in the face, do you think that anyone would stand for that? Do you think ONE non-Catholic would say "Oh, its ok, it's their religion".
Egyptian Islamic cleric says 'beating wife okay, as long as it's not on face'
Aug 1, 10:20 am
Washington, August 1 (
ANI): An
Egyptian cleric has said on a religious television show that it's okay for Muslim husbands to beat wives, so long as they didn't hit them on their faces.
The Washington Times reports that cleric Mahmoud Al-Denawy responded to a question from a woman of Norway during a June 17 show on African Iqra TV that asked 'What's the Islamic view on the beating of wives?'
According to the reports the cleric also said that non-believers of Islam often use that issue as a point of criticism.
He further clarified that if a woman disobeys her husband, then the husband should first try to verbally correct her.
If that doesn't work, he should then move to a different bed. And the last resort should be to beat her gently, but not on her face the report added.(
