Nikah halala — a temporary marriage allowing a woman to return to her previous husband after a divorce. This is based on the Qur’an. Allah’s regulations for divorce emphasize regarding women that “men have a degree over them” (Qur’an 2:228). This may be why men can divorce their wives simply by saying, “Talaq” — You are divorced — but women may not do this. Such an easy procedure leads to divorces in a fit of pique, followed by reconciliation — and the Qur’an anticipates this and attempts to head it off by stipulating that a husband who divorces his wife three times cannot reconcile with her until she marries another man and is in turn divorced by him: “And if he has divorced her [for the third time], then she is not lawful to him afterward until she marries a husband other than him” (Qur’an 2:230).
“Woman Forced to Sleep With Father-in-law Under Nikah Halala, Faces Death Threats for Speaking Out,” by Qazi Faraz Ahmad, News18, July 16, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Lucknow: Just when the Supreme Court is gearing up to hear arguments on Nikah Halala, another victim has come forward saying she was given divorce multiple times and was forced to consummate marriages with several men.
Shabina, who lives in Bareilly, said she received threats that she would be declared an outcast and also threats to her life from “members of her community” after she revolted against the practice.
Narrating her ordeal, she said that her husband had first given her instant talaq. Thereafter, she was forced to marry her father-in-law and consummate the marriage as part of Nikah Halala as she had to marry her first husband again after getting a divorce from her father-in-law.
However, her ordeal did not end there. After marrying her first husband again, Shabina was again given divorce and this time she was being forced to marry her brother-in-law. But this time, she decided enough is enough.
She approached Nida Khan, who had married into the influential Dargah Aala Hazrat family, and the two went to the media to highlight their plight. Nida Khan had also met the same fate as that of Shabina. She was also a victim of triple talaq and has been fighting against it for quite some time.
Both Nida and Shabina have now lodged a case in the local police station against five individuals after receiving death threats.
The two alleged that the local clerics have said that “people who do not follow Shariat are automatically considered out of the Islam” and those who raise their voice against Shariat will face ““dire [sic] consequences”….

What crap from Mohammad yunus. No, most Jews and Christians do not believe that the horrors of Islam were revealed by God to Muhammed.

Eeyewwwww!!!!! Islam doesn’t allow for the eeyewwww factor. How horrid it must be to be raped all the time!! …… and rape excused for so many reasons.The female gender is not allowed normal human emotions and responses, nor any rights to reject those barbaric practices. It’s going to be a long, long time before any woman in Islam can celebrate the phrase, “You’ve come a long way, baby!!”
Kay says
It seems Mohammeden practices and law are designed to convince women that they are no more than things.
Will they ever hear that they were created in the image of God?

Dear Brother and sister, Your knowledge about Islam is very less… This is shameful incident and its not islam

What *absolute crap*.
If a Muslim woman is divorced three times by her husband, then he cannot remarry her unless she has married, slept with, and divorced another man. This is mainstream Islam.

The islam is horrible ugly, so when a muslim start talking he has to lie. Always. Don’t trust a muslim and his quran about a pedophile talking about a guy in the sky, talking about the sun sets in mud, taling a people living by the sun. Totally grazy.
DHazard says
Islam is so stacked against women I can’t understand why they keep on believing in it. But women who were raised in families where fathers abused their wives tend to seek out mates who will abuse them.
If there is a dispute between men and women, men always win in Islam. The Muslim World is full of loveless marriages built on the “acting out” of suppressed childhood memories of their fathers beating their mothers. Outcomes of witnessing your father beat your mother include:
-the male child may grow up to become an abuser himself.
-the female child may think abuse is normal and find herself in an abusive relationship.
-psychological problems may develop.
But Allah doesn’t really care about women so, using Muslims who are following “his” Shariah, he ends up just piling injury on injury (like being forced to marry your rapist). He doesn’t care or know anything about child psychology. He is equally ignorant of adolescent psychology and forces them to suppress their natural urges. Just holding hands in public is haram.
Among Muslims who follow Islam in it’s most literal sense you will find, at the very least, deeply angry men and women.

All Allah cares about is Jihad. Males grow up to fight Jihad. Women grow up to make more Jihadis. Jihad is the priority, not families or individuals. People don’t matter to Allah.

These were probably very reasonable rules in the 7th century among wandering nomadic desert tribes — just like toilet etiquette – there are no trees in the desert and hence no leaves and therefore you had to use a hand. For purpose of hygiene you use one hand only and, if everyone uses the same hand, you know the other guy’s “clean” hand. Very practical. Disgusting but very practical.
They just haven’t picked up on the fact that times change. Today they can drop in at 7/11 and buy toilet paper — using the designated hand to pay for it, of course.

boakai ngombu says
especially in marriage, graven.
the ignoble koran causes the adherent to totally disregards the Creation account in the Bible(Gen2:23,244/Beck: “Now this is bone from my bones,” the man said, “and flesh from my flesh. She will be called woman because she was taken from man.” / This is why a man leaves his father and his mother and lives with his wife, and they become one flesh….”
the notion “one flesh” was important to Jesus. According to Matthew’s Gospel, some of the Hebrew teachers asked Him (Matthew 19: 3/Beck) Is it right for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?” to which Jesus taught (vv4-6): “Haven’t you read,” He asked them. “He who created them from the beginning made them a male and a female?”/ And He taught: “That is why a man will leave his father and mother and live with his wife, and the tow will be one flesh./ And so they are no more two but one flesh. Now, what God has joined together man must not separate.”
But the teachers asked another question (v7): Why, then, did Moses order a man to make out a divorce paper and divorce his wife?”
Jesus answered (v8): ” Because your hearts are hard, Moses let you divorce your wives, but originally there was no such thing. / He then admonishes them (v8): I tell you, if anyone divorces his wife, except for adultery, and marries another, he’s living in adultery.”
The New Testament perspective put simply: go back to the original condition. Live purely (Ephesians 5: 8b-9): “Live as children of light, since light produces everything good and righteous and true…” and then there is the ideal marriage described vv21-33.
NIKAH HALALA is an abomination as is TALAQ. the slaves of the allah god are encouraged to live in adultery and endure the corruption that it brings. participants have hard hearts, indeed polluted hearts having nothing righteous in them.
and in high places of our lands, some would hope that such (that which the SHARIA allows) would replace the Biblical model? that would lead to utter putridity regarding marriage in the land and would destroy family, or reduce its sublime importance, as is seen in islam (SUBJUGATION).

Dear brother, just do some Google and you will come to know that Islam generally improved the status of women compared to earlier Arab cultures and others, prohibiting female infanticide and recognizing women’s full personhood. And talking about this incident, this is completely unislamic. They should be punished. Don’t define Islam based on what some Muslim named people are doing.For that, there is Koran – the book of Islam.So, do read the Koran before commenting on it.
gravenimage says
More lies from the Muslim troll.
Barring female infanticide was the *only* decent thing Islam did–and this was, of course, already barred under Judaism and Christianity.
As for women’s status being improved, nothing could be further from the truth. Khadija was a businesswoman in pre-Islamic Arabia–no woman after this gained such status.

Another example of how barbaric and mysoginist is Islam and the Koran. The Left defends Islam because the Left is anti-Christian…and Islam is anti-Christian.

Dear brother, if Christianity means to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ (pbuh), then truly Muslims are more Christians than Christians themselves. Just look at the beard of Jesus and hijab of mother Mary. And you call Muslims Anti- christian.

No, Islam did not invent beards–how ludicrous! Jews during Jesus’ period typically wore beards.
And no–Mary is not wearing a Hijab. What ahistorical claptrap.
And none of the savagery of Islam is the least bit Christian.

Jahangeer says
The Quranic verses only mandate marrying someone else if one has married the same man too many times. Surah 2:230 “Divorce is twice. Then, either keep [her] in an acceptable manner or release [her] with good treatment. And it is not lawful for you to take anything of what you have given them unless both fear that they will not be able to keep [within] the limits of Allah . But if you fear that they will not keep [within] the limits of Allah, then there is no blame upon either of them concerning that by which she ransoms herself. These are the limits of Allah, so do not transgress them. And whoever transgresses the limits of Allah – it is those who are the wrongdoers. And if he has divorced her (the third time), then she is not lawful unto him thereafter until she has married another husband.” Marrying again and again is pointless.
