Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Arizona: Muslim claims Islamic law gives him right to kill wife

Apr 29, 2014 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

Ansar MuhammadThis is awkward. Where did Ansar Muhammad get the crazy idea that Islam allows him to kill his wife if he so chooses? Has he been fooled by the venomous writings of greasy Islamophobes? Or has he extrapolated from the idea that a Muslim should beat a woman from whom he “fears disobedience” (Qur’an 4:34) and from the general culture of the Qur’an and Sunnah, that treats women as commodities of men, to be disposed of as men please? Will moderate Muslim leaders in Arizona and elsewhere in the U.S. denounce this and explain exactly how Ansar Muhammad has become a misunderstander of Islam?

“Man allegedly claims Islamic Law gives him to right to kill wife,” by Kim Schriner, Fox 10 News, April 28, 2014:

AVONDALE, Ariz. – Police say a valley man threatened to kill his wife, telling his victim “Islamic Law” gave him the right to kill her.

Ansar Muhammad, 43, is facing several charges, including assault and imprisonment.

According to the police report, on April 26, Muhammad sexually assaulted the victim, held her against her will while threatening to kill her, punched and strangulated her, causing physical injuries at their home near 112th Avenue and Encanto Boulevard.

Police say the victim fled to a neighbor’s home to call them after the suspect fell asleep.

Muhammad was detained outside his residence upon police arrival and refused to make any statements.

In the report, police say their investigation determined that Muhammad and the victim were arguing about her having an affair when “Ansar picked the victim up, carrying her like a baby and put her in their vehicle against her will.” He then proceeded to drive to the rear of a nearby Walgreens store where “Ansar began to assault the victim by punching her multiple times, leaving physical injuries on her face, neck, back, chest and legs.”

When the victim continued to try to get away and told him to stop, police say he told the victim he was going to kill her because he had the right due to his “Islamic Belief.”

The victim told police Muhammad then drove back to their home and threatened to throw her in a lake because she can’t swim. When they arrived at the residence, Muhammad told the victim to remain quiet and not wake their three children before taking her phone, per the police report.

Muhammad was arrested and booked into the Avondale city jail and later transported to the Maricopa County jail. He faces aggravated assault domestic violence-impede breathing, assault-intent/reckless/injury, unlawful imprisonment, threatening-intimidation with injury and sexual assault charges.

He’s being held without bond.

    “When the victim continued to try to get away and told him to stop, police say he told the victim he was going to kill her because he had the right due to his “Islamic Belief.””

    Let’s see how that holds up in court.

      its sharia law he will get off because of the fear from the left

      His defense will hold up quite well in court because Westerners are so PC that they dare not insult the “Religion of Peace”. No Imams will speak ill of this man or denounce what he did. The stupid Americans will keep sticking their heads in the sand as the savage Muslims keep raping their women. I suspect he will get off with a slap on the wrist or 30 days in jail

        You should stick to cutting sugar cane and avoid
        running your Cubano mouth.
        Currently it seems there are “Rape gangs” running
        around in the UK commiting rape and claiming
        some specious authority from the Quran-Hadith
        to do so. The Men of the UK seem to allow this.
        This individual will not be able to Shariah his
        way out of this and walk. “Rape-gangs” will
        find a lynch rope or bullet waiting for them in America.
        And Cubano, ALL of your Hate the USA is really
        simple envy.

      If he gets a lefty judge he will get off due or a very light sentence due to freedom of religion.

      Poor guy he has a right to practice his religion just ask Uncle Doogie Hooper of CAIR.

        All he has to say is the magic word islamophia, an he may be able to walk free.

      @Angemon

      It all depends if the gets a muslime judge hearing his case.

      After all, in the Zombie Muhammad case in Pennsylvania, the muslime
      perpetrator had all charges dismissed against him for lack of evidence by
      a fellow scuzzlum judge — this despite the fact there were witnesses (the
      assault and choking happened at a parade) and the muslime perp admitted to
      the police he had assaulted the atheist who dared mock the prophet
      mohammud.

      Nothing to do with Islam, must be a cultural thing. No, wait, that would be racist.

      No, but hey, we have a nice comment from the famous Muslim scholar al-Qurtubi!!!

      “A woman may be likened to a sheep (even) a cow or a camel for all are ridden.”

    Yes of course Islamic law gives him that right. However, it appears he’s failed to take notice of where he’s living. Simply return him to his Islamic Utopia. He may then murder as many Wives he feels the need to. But NOT here!

    Wow.
    Sharia law, as confined to the Muslim community . . . don’t you think it’s vibrant?
    Vibrant as Benghazi?
    Even when confined to the Muslim community, Sharia is abhorrent.

    In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

    Don’t we all just love a horror movie that lulls us into a false sense of security.
    But of course the technique gets very old and becomes a cheap gimmick when used too often in the same script.

      Whenever I read that line about allah being merciful, I think of ‘Ming the Merciless’

    If a woman has an affair she has committed adultery and according to Islam should be stoned. So he didn’t just get the idea from the permission Islam gives husbands to beat his wife.

    • dlbrand says

      May 1, 2014 at 3:57 am

      Exactly. He has “Book of Allah” sanctioning behind his efforts to kill her.

    First Nephi chapter one through second Nephi chapter 33:1-15 does talk about the church of the devil and how fast it’s getting built and a lot of the stuff going on but it also talks about the children of God standing up and fighting the devil and his followers
