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

Turkish marriage guide: Beating wives reminds them husband rules house, “which is like medicine”

Jan 9, 2017 4:13 pm By Robert Spencer

No surprise here. Nothing to be all shocked and indignant about, Ms. Frodsham. This is just Islam:

“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)

And as for making women into sexual slaves:

A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “If a husband calls his wife to his bed [i.e. to have sexual relation] and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning” (Bukhari 4.54.460).

And: “By him in Whose Hand lies my life, a woman can not carry out the right of her Lord, till she carries out the right of her husband. And if he asks her to surrender herself [to him for sexual intercourse] she should not refuse him even if she is on a camel’s saddle” (Ibn Majah 1854).

“Beating wives reminds women who rules the house and encourages them to wear sexy outfits during ‘make-up sex’ to make amends, declares Turkish marriage guide,” by Isobel Frodsham, Mailonline, January 9, 2017:

A shocking book that says husbands can beat their wives and women should wear sexy outfits to make amends with their spouses is being handed out in parts of Turkey.

The book, called ‘Marriage and Family Life’ by Hasan Çalışkan, a former employee of the Office of Religious Affairs called Diyanet, has been slammed by Turkish politicians for the controversial ‘advice’ it offers to couples.

Some of the appalling statements that were written in the book include:

‘A woman who does not beautify herself for her husband, and who does not obey the headmanship of the man can be beaten; this would remind her of the ruler of the house, which is like medicine’
‘Polygamy is beneficial. Would it not be better if, instead of divorcing his bad-tempered wife and making her a trouble for another man, the man took a second wife, prompting her feelings of competition, and eventually bringing her down?’

Other shocking statements made in the ‘education manual’ include children as young as 10 can get married, women should not work as it ‘badly influences’ the woman’s ‘sexual duties’ to her spouse and women should not speak during sex as it could lead to a child being born with a speech impediment.

The 394 page publication was reportedly handed out to people in the city of Kütahya, about 200 miles south of Istanbul, by Kutahya council.

A similar version of the manuscript, called ‘Marriage and Privacy’ was also issued by Pamukkale city council in south west Turkey.

Members of the main opposition, CHP Republican People’s Party, have called the book ‘irrational’, ‘unconscionable’ and ‘depicts woman as second-class citizens and defines them as sexual slaves’.

It was brought to the attention of the Grand Assembly by CHP deputy, Fatma Kaplan Hurriyet.

According to Sol International, she said: ‘This is an irrational, unconscionable book that considers women as sheep, by saying the “the man is the shepherd of the family”. My hairs stood on end as I continued to read it.’

The leader of the party, Zeliha Aksaz Sahbaz, added the book ‘depicts women as second-class citizens and defines them as sexual slaves’….

    Turkish marriage guide: Beating wives reminds them husband rules house, “which is like medicine”
    ……………………………….

    More like poison–along with polygamy and pedophilia–and the unspoken threat of “Honor Killing”.

    I am glad to see some in Turkey alarmed by this–but they don’t really have a leg to stand on, since this is all mainstream Islam. *Ugh*.

    I guess Turkish women are most appealing to their pious husbands in Black and Blue.

    No end to the pathologies that exist in Islam. In fact, it could be argued, and I would argue such, that Islam is one gigantic pathology in toto.

      I don’t know how they get off classifying Islam as a religion. The APA should categorize it as another serious mental illness.

      • Wellington says

        Well, where is it written that a religion has to be good or at least innocuous? Satanism is a religion too and it’s full of pathologies and loons who adhere to it. The key is not to say what is and what is not a religion but rather identify religions that are effed-up as the giant negatives they are. Then you go from there while still protecting freedom.

        I don’t want the government deciding what religions can exist and which ones can’t. That’s a huge problem in its own right. Remember, even during WWII and the Cold War respectively, Nazism and Communism were legal in the US but the vast majority of people understood these secular belief systems to be for losers, the confused and malevolent people. This is how Islam should be treated.

    Islam feeds and sacralises and is intended to permit the satisfaction of all the basest desires of the most evil of human males.

    • dumbledoresarmy says

      Jan 9, 2017 at 5:39 pm

      It programs human males to become the equivalent of what biologists dub “killer roosters”.

    This whole concept on those who are stronger and larger having more rights is interesting. Does that mean that any man weaker than another is considered mentally inferior and of fewer rights? So basically bodybuilders should rule the world, because they are bigger and stronger?

    • gravenimage says

      Jan 11, 2017 at 10:44 pm

      Islam abuses the weak and vulnerable in general–women, children the elderly, the disabled, and any sensitive or non-alpha male. It is a creed of bullies.

    This is about waging war upon outsiders with demography. If women have no rights, no means to escape abuse, no options other than to be available for breeding, and 10 year old girls can be married off, their population is set to skyrocket.

    This reminds me of an interesting discussion that I had, in which my friend said (exasperated) well, we can’t kill our way out of this, there’s a ton of them… when all else fails, isn’t that exactly what war is for??

    I wonder if there is a way to compare the functional power differential between two adults who were carefully parented, as opposed to 9 adults who were spit out and grew up without much guidance and care?

    • DIanne says

      Jan 11, 2017 at 4:35 pm

      As a woman I must say I’m disappointed with women allowing themselves to be used as broodmares. Bottom line, they could commit suicide, but no they’ll just be there to help and reward their abuser.

    “BEATING IS MEDICINE” in Turkey.

    Anyone want Turkey in the EU?

    • Anne Smith says

      Jan 10, 2017 at 10:20 am

      David Cameron desperately wants Turkey in the EU, saying as long ago as 2010 that it made him very angry that Turkey was being denied membership.

      Thank goodness we got rid of him via the EU referendum, but still a way to go before we get rid of all the other idiots in the UK Parliament.

    Let’s buy the English-language publication rights. They will be worth a fortune in 2-5 years in the UK.

    Yes the science is settled. 97% of scientists agree that talking during sex causes speech impediments in children.

      I don’t know about talking during sex causes speech impediments in children.
      I DO know that talking while I was having sex caused me to go blind in one eye.
      I called her Sally —– her name was Jenny, she stabbed me in the eye with a nail file.
      Ouch

    Good old Turkey, always remembering everyone else why we don’t want them in the EU…

    When I lived in Turkey, there was an incident reported about a Turkish man used an axe to cut off both feet of his wife because she went out to shop for food for their children without his permission. He did not get jail time for that act of hatred.

    In my book: EXPERIENCING ISLAM, I write about seeing a Moslem man whipping his wife while she was carying a big burden on her back, like a draft animal.

    I examine and discuss the abuse that Moslem men heap on women in my book MOSLEM MEN FEAR WOMEN, a very revealing account of misogyny
