Yes, because his culture is informed by his religion. The Qur’an teaches that men are superior to women and should beat those from whom they “fear disobedience”: “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

“Mr Arif said that a disagreement between the couple ensued and the victim struck his client first.”
This blaming of the victim is quite common. Houston doctor Shafeeq Sheikh was convicted of raping a hospital patient. He “testified that he went to the woman’s room to do a medical check but that she ‘came on to him’ by grabbing his crotch, Andrews said. Sheikh left, came back to the room, and she came on to him again, Andrews said.” Lisa Andrews is “one of Sheikh’s attorneys.” Andrews also disparaged the victim in lurid terms: “Here we have this Latina woman with her fake boobs that came on to that little nerdy middle-aged guy and he lost his mind.”
In the UK last month, a Muslim migrant who was charged with sexually assaulting a boy in a McDonald’s men’s room claimed, according to his defense attorney, that “the boy had been watching him.” And in July, also in the UK, a Muslim cop on trial for the sexual assault of a teenage girl claimed she repeatedly asked him to have sex with her.
In a similar vein, Muzzammil Hassan, the Buffalo, New York moderate Muslim leader who beheaded his wife, claimed she beat him, and he was just defending himself. Turkan Lowmani, who stabbed his wife 21 times, claimed that his wife “had grabbed the knife first and he had taken it from her before a struggle ensued.” 68-old-year Komar Uddin, accused of raping a teenage girl, claimed she made all the advances upon him. Mohamed Noor, the Minneapolis cop who shot dead an unarmed woman, is also claiming that he acted in self-defense.
“BRUTAL ATTACK Man punches his partner in the face and tells cops ‘it’s part of my culture to hit women,’” by Harvey Sullivan, The Sun, December 5, 2018:
A MAN punched his new partner in the face and then told cops it’s part of his “culture” to hit women, a court heard.
Chaudry Mahmood, 51, and the victim, who is his former sister-in-law, were arguing at a fair in Wellholme Park, Brighouse, West Yorkshire.
Tensions within their families were high after they had started seeing each other before Mahmood hit struck his wife.
A Good Samaritan stopped his car when he saw the incident and took photos of Mahmood before calling the police.
The assailant pleaded guilty to assault by beating when he appeared in Kirklees Magistrates’ Court.
Prosecutor Natalie Chapman said the witnesses’ attention was drawn to the victim sitting on a bench in the park.
She told magistrates: “A male was stood up close by and with his right hand he punched her to the side of her face, causing her to move….
Mahmood, of Bradbury Street in Ravensthorpe, was arrested and initially told police that he’d only pushed his partner.
Miss Chapman told magistrates: “He said it was Asian culture, an open hand to the back to the head to shut them up.
“When asked if he’d do anything differently he said ‘no’.”…
Mohammed Arif, mitigating, said that the couple had been together for five months….
Mr Arif said that a disagreement between the couple ensued and the victim struck his client first….

Just a glance at the titles and intros to Jihad Watch articles over the last week is truly dismaying. That a creed could show its vicious, illogical, hypocritical stripes so blatantly to the world and nonetheless retain an enormous fan base really reflects badly on the human race. Even Indonesians – who seem to be of intelligent stock – have somehow latched onto this ‘religious’ defilement and thus can be the source of a headline such as this:

Off-topic comment: to the person who attempted to insult me by describing a cryptic comment I had made several days ago as a “word salad” – you failed to insult me – by the way, I make great salads.
Ayurveda, Hoemopathy, Naturopathy and Sikhpathy are superior to “rooted in vivisection” ‘allopathic’ medicine.
Message to all: please do not ever take the risk of having a Muslim as your medical doctor – Make sure you trust your doctor – MohaMADans are fundamentally unworthy of trust. Never trust a Muslim professional in any field, be it medicine, law, or coaching of children in athletics, football, swimming, gymnastics etc.

If all those “opathys” you cite are superior, why is the lifespan in India so low? Nonsense. You can’t quote any scientific studies that would prove your statement. Do you drink your urine every morning?
Prabh says
I’ve responded to you before – you are the least of my concerns – parts of India do have people living well into their 90’s – even in colonial era people were long lived – if people choose to be Tamasic that is their choice – by the way, the true Hindu population of India is only about 20 percent.
These systems I discussed work on people whose life is 1000 percent spiritual. Their genetics are different. Sharp jawlines are indicative of eating animals (cows in particular) for millions of years – aeons of nonveg diet change genetics.
People are different. What works for one person won’t work for another person – main point is do not risk trusting a Moslem medical practitioner or a Moslem lawyer or coach etc. because it is risky – Carolyne these people (islamojihadists) would like to see me and my peoples Extinct – that’s why I don’t trust them. My peoples and corelgionists will not end up in a museum of extinct humanoids – in case you travel to India note that in India “museum” is slang for “adult shop” – excuse the euphamisms but yes, I am a prude – I’m a proud prude.

No, Vitamin C does not cure polio. Luckily, polio was wiped out by vaccine in much of the world in the mid 1950s. You have not had to worry about polio because all of the sensible people around you have gotten vaccinated.

It is their “culture” also to murder….their wives, children, neighbors, Jews, Christians, any other non moslim having a belief system or without.
If the “culture” argument is successful for mutilating children, beating their family members, daily rape of infants and children not old enough to “marry,’ and rape of women and children not clothed as they demand, how long before they claim the defence of “culture” for murder and mass murder in terror attacks?
J D S says
but…but…but…it’s not murder…according to their book of hate.
somehistory says
Some of the account is confusing. ” Tensions within their families were high after they had started seeing each other before Mahmood hit struck his wife.”
Did the victim know that he hit/beat his former wife when she began to keep company with him? Did they begin to date *before* he divorced his former wife, or after? Why would she agree to date him if she knew he was violent? Is she also moslim, so that she would be aware of the “culture” of islam includes beating women?
Just to clarify: I’m not blaming the victim for the abuse. Just questioning the circumstances of their relationship and the woman’s knowledge of the creep and his “culture.”
Carol the 1st says
The wording isn’t crystal clear but I took it to mean he’d taken as his wife his former sister-in-law and that was who he struck.

Postmodern liberals say all cultures are equal and tied to race. Thus liberals regard anybody who’d condemn Moslem culture to legitimizing and validating violence toward women as guilty of hate, intolerance, bigotry, xenophobia, Islamophobia and racism.

Of course it is wrong for him to hit his wife and it cannot be justified by religion, culture, temporary insanity, loss of temper, etc. He should be prosecuted and punished without any consideration for his “cultural” habits.
We should remember, however, that the treatment of women under Canadian Law has been similarly unjust until relatively recently.(and presumably under U.S. law as well).
For example, it’s only been about 100 years since women in the West began getting equal voting rights.
Example #2.- Until approximately 50 years ago it was not a crime to rape one’s wife. This is a violent act. Also, it was not even a ground for divorce.
Example #3. Violence against women in our society today is at epidemic levels WITHOUT including stats for muslims.
Example #4. Statistics indicate that as many as 25% of our pre-twentyish females were abused physically (not always sexually) while growing up.
Example #5. Our society is only now addressing the issue of spanking children. Remember the strap that was used for discipline in public schools until the 1970s? Heck, some places (UK, for example) used the cane in schools.
Remember that the original Women’s Lib movement was at its height in the 1970s and drove the removal of Laws which denigrated women.
IN NO WAY am I trying to justify his actions or legitimize them under any circumstances. However, we should be aware that Western culture also allowed that abuse until relatively recently. Are we surprised that a new immigrant from a third world country would consider his actions normal? That islam promotes such behavior may or may not be relevant in individual cases.

Spousal abuse was not taken very seriously unless there was significant damage but, yes it was illegal. (Difficult to prove, though, unless you were stupid enough to do it in public). However, RAPE of one’s wife was NOT illegal. To commit a rape force, either physical or emotional, must be present. So, by innuendo, a husband could use force on his wife.
My point is that many of the actions we criticize muslims for as having come out of their religion are not as foreign to the non-muslim society as OUR outrage might assume.

The “spirit” of Western law and culture has never sprung from the Islamic wellspring of arrogant dominance. No malice, oppression, or sense of superiority and ownership held “pride of place”. Instead potential laws that would fully protect the dignity of women were insufficiently appreciated in favour of religious ideals of protecting a ‘holy union’ and allowing a man and wife to come to their own terms without questionable outside interference that could threaten the couple and their family unit as a whole. Women were also less welcome in the workforce and being a good housewife and mother were more stressed in a near-equal “partnership” with the “breadwinner”.
These similiarities never encompassed the mean-spirited usury and threat to the other gender in the way that Islam does. Sometimes you actually have to live through things in order to more properly understand them and in my opinion your statement greatly misses the mark and is thus as good as a lie.

The antebellum South had a stupid, ridiculous, and racist honor system. The courts in the South often looked the other way when matters of “honor” were addressed. The upper class dueled. The lower classes were quick to physically fight often valuing poking out the eye of their opponent. Blacks were not generally perceived to be capable of having “honor.”
As stupid, ridiculous, and racist as it was, it was actually culturally enlightened when compared to Islam. Islam is a blight upon the world in its foundation of barbarity compared to the Northern and Southern antebellum United States, but compared to morality perceived in the East and West in the modern era as well.
What can you say good about Islam? You generally can say that they don’t eat each other I guess. Unless the purpose of cannibalism is to terrorize the infidel, cannibalism does not seem to be pursued.

Muslims are authorised to eat their enemies.

I do not understand what Hindus and Indians generally have to boast about their culture, this happens only for the tragic fables sorted by the Nazis on the Aryan race. then the women treat them the same as the Muslims, they rape them in groups, they set them on fire, they beat them, they burn their faces with the same acid as the Muslims of Bangladesh and Pakistan. and equal the Hindus do not tolerate other religions beyond theirs, so they treat Christians the same as Muslims.
over a billion people, someone living up to 90 years old is normal, but not for the European peoples of whom they live up to a hundred and more years thanks to food and not to medicines, if we then want to talk about salad as we have taught it we have nothing to the Anglo-Saxon peoples to learn from those who still today have a billion poor people, beggars, dirt roads, huge shantytowns with cows across the streets, roofs and physical ugliness similar to the Pakistanis, and I stop here because I would have things to say, the fact is that the Indians still come here to brag about their culture even trying to offend us when they use tools and science made in the west world

Marcus D.Wardle says
Yet again this site reports an item while abusing the facts. The couple were in a relationship which was strongly disapproved of by both of their families. The couple had reported their families to the police for harassing them which led to tensions between them. Most like an Evangelical Christian families, very right wing and conservative.In court he claimed it was ‘acceptable’ in Asian culture, not part of his culture. One is tacit the other the norm. The witness stated that he punched the side of the woman. He claimed in court he slapped her on the side of the face after she had hit him first. As the victim would not provide a statement neither can be corroborated. His defence then told magistrates: ‘He’s then retaliated and accepts he’s gone beyond any kind of self-defence.
He was charged with aggravated assault as it took place in a public place. Both of them have waited for the trial in order to get it over with and that they could move away from their respective families who were the cause of the problem to begin with! The fact that they were living together will tell you something as to how stupid this reporting of this incident is. If their surnames had been Smith or Jones it would be reported as a domestic dispute which occurred in a public place, or not reported at all! Just because the surname is of Arabic sounding it is BIG NEWS!!!!!
Do some honest reporting, if you can Please?

Indoor “domestic disputes” are NOT acceptable in Western culture. The Police will press charges if the wife does not dare to do so. This is one of the ways in which our culture keeps BULLIES FROM BECOMING TOO FULL OF THEMSELVES. The ROP could learn from this if they had the heart for it.
gravenimage says
What a lot of tripe from Marcus D.Wardle–a poster I have never seen here before.
The idea that this Muslim had to punch a woman because of pressure from imagined Evangelical Christians is just grotesque. Firstly, there is no indication that anyone involved were Evangelical Christians, then–even more to the point–Marcus D.Wardle is mistaken in believing that it is acceptable to beat women if they are Evangelical Christians, or are related to them by blood or marriage.
Islamic texts don’t teach that men can beat women only if they are Evangelical Christians–instead this abuse of women is rife in Islam, regardless of the faith of the victim or the victim’s realtives.
More from Marcus D.Wardle:
In court he claimed it was ‘acceptable’ in Asian culture, not part of his culture.
……………………
“Asian” in Britain just means Muslim–clearly, the perp has a Muslim name. And the idea that this was just an idle observation and had no bearing on the case is obviously ridiculous–Chaudry Mahmood used this reference as a defense for his beating women. This would not make sense unless this was his culture.
And the idea that a wife-beater can use annoying in-laws as an excuse for assault is just grotesque. Lots of people have stresses with in-laws, and don’t beat their wives as a result.
Notice, also, that Chaudary Mahmood did not use his having annoying in-laws as a defense–that is only used by Marcus D.Wardle himself. Instead, the assailant used Muslim culture of beating women as a his defense.
And the idea that aggravated assault is only a crime if it takes place in public is an utter lie–the only difference is that assault is easier to prove if there are third-party witnesses, as here.
Been There Got the Tee Shirt says
When I read about the amount of abuse women take from terrorists of all kinds, including Islamists, etc. I am shocked. Being in the US and reading this, I can only wonder where their men are. For millennia men defended their women, offspring, families, parents, etc. Hell, look at a wolf pack. That’s an example of a tight family unit standing together. The alpha male has a duty to the pack and does his level best to do it.
Now JW carries dozens of stories monthly of sexual abuse, rape, intimidation, the rape gangs, CS cops in the UK, and other such stories, but there does not seem to be a man left in Europe who will defend the honor of his family and particularly the women in it. Yet we hear about the Muslim population defending the family when a woman violates some misogynistic sharia dictate. She gets killed. Look at Asia Bibi in Pakistan now. What’s up with that? Are they the only race/religion/cult or whatever they are with “family honor” left? That’s a real joke. What’s the ratio of cousins marrying? I guess that’s where all the “mental illness” originates.
What the hell is going on? Has every male in Europe been neutered? And are they fed nothing but diets high in estrogen contents like soy to neuter their masculinity? We know the EU’s population can’t reproduce at what would have been considered a normal replacement rate of about 100 years ago. So I guess that carries over to all the other aspects of being a traditional man and head of a family unit…of being a man and rearing a family. It’s so sad to see what the whole thing has morphed into, and the “solutions” that the EU thinks are wonderful. The clock is ticking.
