Of course. 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
Muhammad’s child bride, Aisha, says in a hadith that 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?’” — Sahih Muslim 2127
“Palestinian Islamic scholars reject Family Protection Bill,” by Khaled Abu Toameh, Jerusalem Post, June 7, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Palestinian Islamic scholars have expressed opposition to a family protection bill on the pretext it “contradicts Islamic Sharia laws and the values of society.”
The Palestinian Authority Ministry of Women’s Affairs is drafting the new law, which seeks to impose harsher penalties on abusers and provide protection systems for women from gender-based violence. The law also will require all PA ministries and institutions to participate in the effort to reduce domestic violence.
Twenty-nine percent of Palestinian women, or nearly one in three, reported psychological, physical, sexual, social or economic violence by their husbands at least once during the preceding 12 months, according to a survey carried out by the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics in the second quarter of 2019.
Eleven Palestinian women have been killed as a result of domestic violence since the beginning of this year, the Palestinian feminist movement Tal’at reported.
Palestinian Islamic scholars have rejected the proposed bill, claiming it would “destroy and weaken Palestinian families,” Hamas-affiliated websites reported Sunday.
The new law would “destroy family relationships, which are based on compassion, affection and reform, and subject them to external and public court proceedings,” the scholars warned in a statement.
“The law constitutes a violation of family privacy and the special relations between a husband and his wife and the father and his children,” they said…..

Islamic values include the man’s right to beat his wife to pulp if he so desires. He owns her after all. We cannot change that without putting the prophet Muhammad in a bad light. He had no sympathy for the woman whose skin was beaten greener than the colour of her gown according to his child bride Aisha. Shari’a is completely incompatible with human rights and normal decency.

“The new law would “destroy family relationships, which are based on compassion, affection and reform..”- says Muslim clerics in Palestine.
“I am reforming you with the compassion of this stick; have no fear of my affection.”, may say a Muslim man, justified by the Quran and Muslim clerics. “I love you, dear cousin, as fitting the couples of all arranged marriages. I am putting you on the road to eternal happiness as a sex object in Jannah. Feel my affection as the switch cuts into your flesh”
Nothing would stop BDS faster than for Western women to experience living as Muslim wives in, “Palestine”.
How about a TV “Muslim-Western Wife Swap” show? Any Western Leftist, BDS-promoting, volunteers?

“Palestinian” Islamic scholars say new law imposing harsh penalties for domestic abuse is un-Islamic

Grimly, this is true. What is more Islamic than wife beating–save for “Honor Killing”?

What’s more “compassionate” and “affectionate” than beating your wife? Ah, see above…
OLD GUY says
Goes to show the low level of education it takes in muslim land to be called a scholar. What a great family plan, wife beating, honor killing, child marriages and rape approved and blessed by your religious leaders and Allah. What can possibly be wrong with their thinking?
