:salam2:
I personally know some women who went through abuse from their husbands, and yes i believe that the majority of the sisters/brothers who are making their points of domestic violence on this thread are speaking of their experiences.
There are many reverts on tti so they may not really know what its like since they only point out what Islam says how men are supposed to treat their wives. Of course, we all know that, even the men who ill-treat their wives know themselves that its against Islam, but they don't care.
My point is that yes, Islam tells men how to treat their wives but some Muslim men these days don't practice it, do they? no,they don't. And even if they have to beat their wives lightly, how likely is that? they most likely transgress the limits set by Allaah.
So there is no point of offending other muslims and calling them 'Modern Muslim' wallaah if someone said that to me, then I would of been so offended. At the end of the day, brother sheerpak is talking from experience while some of you have no experinece but are quick to make judgements.
Hope I didn't upset anyone, :shymuslima1: its just that i feel really hurt because of what close people around me are going through. And the way some men treat their wives is just wrong.
Like I saw a video in the past of the taliban beating women just because she showed some of her hand. Erm..why are they staring at her then, so what if she's covered they should still lower their gaze. I felt so sorry for that sister. And then they make Islam look bad. But of course not all men are like that.
