Pakistan: Muslim cleric says law protecting women from violence is un-Islamic

Feb 24, 2016 11:44 pm By Robert Spencer

“Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them.” — Qur’an 4:34

Muhammad “struck me on the chest which caused me pain, and then said: Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you?” — Aisha (Sahih Muslim 2127)

Mufti Muhammad Naeem

“PA Passes Women Protection Bill; Cleric Terms It Contrary To Islamic Sharia,” Geo.TV, February 24, 2016 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

KARACHI/LAHORE: A prominent cleric in Pakistan termed the “Protection of Women against violence Bill 2015”, passed by the Punjab Assembly on Wednesday, in contradiction to the Islamic Sharia and criticized the Sharif brothers for allegedly pushing the country towards ‘secularism’.

The bill was adopted by the provincial assembly on Wednesday, making all crimes against the women an offence including domestic violence, emotional, psychological and economic abuse, verbal abuse, stalking, abetment of an offence, and cyber crimes.

According to the new law, a toll-free number (UAN) will also be introduced to receive complaints while a district protection committee will be setup to investigate women’s complaints in this regard.

Reacting to the development, Chief of Jamia Binoria International Mufti Muhammad Naeem said in a statement that the bill was contrary to teachings of Holy Quran and Sunnah.

Terming the bill a bid to suppress men at the hands of women, he said violence against women can be controlled by giving them rights allocated for them in the Sharia.

Mufti Naeem strongly opposed the bill and expressed his concerns over it calling it a ‘tragedy’.

“Rulers under their mental slavery of the West are forgetting their social values also,” he remarked in the statement….

Violence against women has been criminalized in Pakistan Penal Code (PPC) which is a federal law. Acts of domestic violence are also an offence under various sections of PPC, and punishments for these have been prescribed in this federal law too.

    Dear feminist let’s be inclusive and understanding bringing more of the”scholars” in our midst might help overcoming the ”cultural” barrier, giving the animals freedom of oppression whilst on our knees until forever shall shape our society for the beast…the best (my bad small keyboards), under protection of burqa, and islamic justice system. the beating of a refractory wife was interpreted by early jurists as a (symbolic) and to be conducted by a miswak (length of miswatk to be specified by scholars in the future, as today length vary from 3 inches to 7 feet, ) but with scholars enlighten by the virtue of Profit muhamMad the brighter days are ahead, as well as the wisdom of auntie allah burqa is for your benefit duo depletion of ozone layer.

    Laws are not worth the paper they are printed on, unless they are enforced.
    Any woman complaining of abuse in Muslim ” countries ” is likely to get her throat cut, by relatives, for bringing shame on the family.

    I was under the impression that “takfir” was some sort of taboo in islam, so why is it that muslims aren’t shy of declaring a lot of stuff “un-islamic”?

    • gravenimage says

      Feb 25, 2016 at 2:07 pm

      Angemon, there’s nothing taboo about pious Muslims declaring things–and each other–Takfir. The only taboo thing about Takfir is the things declared Takfir. Takfir itself is a core concept of Islam, and is the reason Muslims are so busy slaughtering each other.

      at a church Bible study recently, to show how absolutely and utterly evil islam is, a pastor referred to islam’s allowance for men to have sex with their dead wive’s corpse and muhammed marrying 6 year old Aisha and penetrating her when she was 9!

      we must get the message out from the roof tops if necessary that islam is demonic evil and a threat to all western democracies

        John, good for you for finding a church that is not riven with suicidal “political correctness”! Kudos to this pastor.

    Violence against women/wives is evil/ungodly. These women who had to undergo genital mutilation n sacrificed so much to marry these evil men who wanted to beat them just to show their manhood as following their religious doctrines. The women have to bear children n do so much of work in the house day n night. Really bad karma to be born a woman in these barbaric countries.

    CRIMES AGAINST WOMEN MUST STAY in an Islamic state.

    CRIMES AGAINST WOMEN are NORMATIVE ISLAM, rather than aberrations.

    Thus says the authority on Islam, Chief of Jamia Binoria International Mufti Muhammad Naeem.

    A mufti is somewhat equivalent to a high-ranking church official, such as a bishop or moderator. His words are based on a lifetime of study of Islam and are not easily dismissed. Naeem speaks from solid knowledge of Islam’s normative abuse of women.

    Does “women” include Christian women who might be sitting on death row on made up charges of blasphemy against Islam, or who are kidnapped and raped and forced into marriage to a Muslim man?
    Didn’t think so.

    “making all crimes against the women an offence including domestic violence, emotional, psychological and economic abuse, verbal abuse, stalking, abetment of an offence, and cyber crimes.” What a wet blanket on Muslim mating rituals and domestic bliss, in fact, it would land most Pakistani Muslim men in jail. Now there’s a progressive idea.

    • Karen says

      Feb 25, 2016 at 5:43 pm

      “Does “women” include Christian women….” Or other religious minorities…..a very good question. They still have the blasphemy law, which could trump anything and everything.

      Interesting reaction from one of the officials who apparently feels a bit prickly about Pakistan’s image, and who regurgitates some Islamophobia rhetoric:

      “Law Minister Rana Sanaullah said violence against women was a global concern. “Attempts to portray a picture of Pakistan not based on reality must be countered through legislative efforts,” he said. ”

      Which of course makes very little sense.

    Pakistan: Muslim cleric says law protecting women from violence is un-Islamic
    ……………………….

    Well, Mufti Muhammad Naeem is right–what is more Islamic than violence against women? It is very much a part of the teachings of Qur’an and Sunnah

    Note that he characterizes any move against such violence as “a bid to suppress men at the hands of women”. In other words, preventing men from mutilating women, from engaging in pedophilia, from forced marriage, from marital rape, from polygamy, from wife beating, and from “Honor Killing” is taking away *theri* “rights” under this foul creed.

    God, I hate Islam.

    There are thousands of women, girls and boys across the planet who wish muslim men would ‘guard’ THEIR unseen parts.

    All heterosexual muslim men with their islamic belief that they are the master race with unlimited powers of use and abuse owing to have been born with male genitalia, therefore preferred and endorsed by allahwally, should be forcibly deported from civilised countries to islamic countries. From there, they can send money back to maintain wives and kids. Naturally, any women who can’t bear to be separated from their menfolk should deserve to accompany them. All mosques in the Western world can be demolished or converted into useful buildings

    This will go a long way to ensuring the health and safety of women, children, gay men and women, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs and members of other non-muslim religions as well as ex-muslim ‘apostates’

    Most important of all, it will remove the most aggressive source of religious fanaticism, violence, cruelty, irrationality, delusional self-entitlement, and stupidity from countries unfortunate enough to have been infested with islam in recent times. The practice of islam and books associated with it should be banned as a threat to Western security and in the interest of sanity.

    The quoted 4:34 in the first paragraph is not correct. Abdel Haleem translated as, “Husbands should take good care of their wives, with [the bounties] God has given to some more than others and with what they spend out of their own money”. The Study Quran translated as, “Men are the upholders and maintainers of women by virtue of that in which God has favored some of them above others and by virtue of their spending from their wealth.”
    These two translations, generally accepted as more accurate then prior translations convey a different meaning than the translation in the first paragraph which says, “Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them.”
