Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. The Palestinian Authority gives pardons or suspended sentences for honor murders. Iraqi women have asked for tougher sentences for Islamic honor murderers, who get off lightly now. Syria in 2009 scrapped a law limiting the length of sentences for honor killings, but “the new law says a man can still benefit from extenuating circumstances in crimes of passion or honour ‘provided he serves a prison term of no less than two years in the case of killing.’” And in 2003 the Jordanian Parliament voted down on Islamic grounds a provision designed to stiffen penalties for honor killings. Al-Jazeera reported that “Islamists and conservatives said the laws violated religious traditions and would destroy families and values.”
Until the encouragement Islamic law gives to honor killing is acknowledged and confronted, more women will suffer.
“Honor killing in Sindh: Woman stoned to death, confirms post-mortem report,” Global Village Space, July 7, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
A post-mortem report on the body of a woman allegedly stoned to death in Jamshoro district has confirmed that severe torture was inflicted on her, which led to her death. According to the report, the alleged stoning victim had a fractured skull with her neck and facial bones broken, which severely affected her brain. This is another brutal case of honor killing in Sindh.
Moreover, there were severe injuries all over the woman’s body, according to the autopsy which was conducted 12 hours after her death. It concluded that head injuries resulted in her death.
According to the police, on June 27, the Motorway Police found a mutilated body of an unknown woman with severe head injuries from the Indus Highway in the limits of Police Station Chachaar.
The Motorway Police referred the matter to the Police Station Chachaar, where the deceased was identified as Waziran Chachaar, a resident of nearby Wadda Chachaar village….
Surprisingly, the relatives of the deceased woman, including her father and husband, initially avoided the police investigation and registration of case and wanted that a road accident be declared the cause of death. Later, both the father and husband alleged each other of killing the woman.
Sources claim that this murder is a case of Karo-Kari which is premeditated honor killing widely practiced in rural and tribal areas of Sindh. Any men or women involved in pre-marital or extra-marital relation is considered the enemy of the collective conscience and the concerned family is expected to take the life of the person in order to restore the honor or reputation.
Official statistics reveal that from January to June 2019, there have been 78 cases of honor killing. Some cases have been registered but in many cases, investigations are pending due to cultural as well as structural challenges….
However, police generally find it difficult to investigate such cases due to cultural reasons. “Honor killing is a social problem and has its roots in the tribal culture and a mindset where women are seen as subservient to men,” said DIG-Headquarters Abdul Khaliq Shaikh….
DH says
Wow, an extramarital affair. She was probably the first Muslim to ever have one. Honor killings may not have originated with Islam but it gave them Allah’s seal of approval.
gravenimage says
She may not even have had an affair, DH. And if she was in a forced marriage–*very* common in Islam, then there was no “sanctity of marriage” in the first place. All of this makes these “Honor Killings” even more sickening.

No. Honor killing is Islam-approved. A parent who kills his offspring is exempt from Islam’s penalty – retaliation – in sharia law.

Walter Sieruk says
As for the brutal ,cruel vicious and murderous actions of Islamic misogyny which is so inappropriately called “honor killing.” This heinously wicked misogynists Islamic tradition reaches such n demonic extent of evil and madness that in number of Muslim nations ,as Afghanistan and Pakistan, if a girl or woman is raped she then might undergo being murdered in an “honor killing.”
This is worse that a terrible miscarriage it’s an outright outrageous affront to all that is decent, good right as well as sane. To actual punish the victim of raped and not the rapists is most hideous, vile and wrong. very wrong. The Bible teaches in Proverbs 17:15. “The Lord hates two things, punishing the innocent and letting the guilty go free.” [E.R.V.]

Honor killing.What an oxymoron. There is no honor in the butchery of defenseless people and the killing of a woman is particularly disgusting and cowardly.
Those that do this are not men, no even human.
revereridesagain says
It doesn’t exclusively own the sentiment that women should be made to “pay for their fun”, but Islam is vile and vicious in its attitude towards women across the board — for all its egregious posturing about “protecting” them — and exposes itself in its mouth-foaming hysterical hostility to victims of rape. Violation of a defenseless female doesn’t work well with Islam’s attitude that women are “temptresses” of poor pure widdle Muslim males.
tim gallagher says
More of the endless, completely inhuman behaviour that Islam condones and praises. I was going to say more of the ape-like behaviour, but, of course, apes never stoop as low as these followers of Islam do. Honour killings, marrying off young girls to much older Muslims men, Muslims following the Koran’s clear instructions to murder non-Muslims when the chance arises, that’s totally inhumane and evil Islam. And this foul ideology, we are constantly told, deserves to be treated with respect. How any of the clowns who tell us this come to that conclusion is beyond my comprehension. And Pakistan, what a hellish area of darkness that disgusting country is. It has to be one of the worst among Islam’s long line up of appalling countries.
peter says
Please do not insult apes comparing them to muslims or mohamed. They are noble when compared to muslims!
jimjfox says
Quite so, Peter. Whilst uncomfortable to some people, humans are the most advanced members of the family Of great apes…
FYI says
“And ye know of those of you who broke the Sabbath,be ye APES,despised and hated”
Koran 2 :65
So the Jews are to be turned into apes AND hated and despised.
It looks like allah doesn’t like apes.Or Pigs.
Notice how allah’s{= the MSP,Muhhammed’s Sock Puppet}antisemitism comes out.
What is wrong with Apes?Nothing.
Apes,Chimpanzees,Orangutans etc are actually highly intelligent creatures…unlike most islamic ‘scholars’.
Look up….
Tal the Orangutan,he plays the recorder..
{isn’t if funny an orangutan can play a musical instrument but in islam allah views musical instruments as haram?islamic ‘scholars’ won’t get it.Honestly,I would rather spend an afternoon learning from an orangutan than having to listen to the lunacy of the islamic ‘scholar’}
FYI says
BTW
It seems that an Orangutan has more freedom than a muslim as he is free …to play any musical instrument and derive enjoyment from it.
What is the difference between an Orangutan and an islamic scholar?
1]An orangutan is free to play a musical instrument and is not subject to an idiot of a god who has problems with music and musical instruments.
2]An orangutan is not hampered by any nonsense that musical instruments are Haram.Only islamic ‘scholars’ think like that:An orangutan doesn’t need to be bothered by such lunacy.
So an Orangutan has MORE freedom than an islamic scholar does to play music.
I’d love to see Chimpanzees on drums…
tim gallagher says
You are all right, of course. But as I said up above, I know that apes would never stoop this low. No, only human beings, such as followers of the diabolical evil and sadism of Islam, along with some other evil human beings, can stoop as low as the scum in this report. I am a great lover of animals and am very often feeding and caring for starving stray cats that show up at my house because they have such terrible lives. I do believe that we can go on using turns of phrase, such as , say, describing people, who live in dirty and untidy conditions, as “living like pigs”, or a violent mob as behaving like a “pack of wild animals”. I know I will continue to us such analogies. But you are right about apes behaving better than these Pakistani Muslim scumbags.

Pakistan: Muslims stone woman to death in honor killing
Surprisingly, the relatives of the deceased woman, including her father and husband, initially avoided the police investigation and registration of case and wanted that a road accident be declared the cause of death. Later, both the father and husband alleged each other of killing the woman.
…………………………
Nothing surprising here–the whole family was probably in on murdering this poor woman.
And I would not assume that she had had an affair–just speaking to an unrelated male is often enough to warrant murder by Muslims.
Will the Pakistani authorities do anything about this? I would not hold my breath…
melek-ric says
Proud and brave Muslim men, defending their honor by butchering a helpless woman. Yet the moment they’re apprehended it’s “please please say it was a car accident”, followed by “he did it… NO NO NO HE did it!” I wouldn’t be surprised if their next defense was to claim she stoned herself to death.

And Pakistan Islam claims to have Jesus?
Arrest them. Charge with conspiracy to commit murder, and first degree murder. Set trial date. Ask for life in prison.
Or is Pakistan going to practice Islam morals?
Unless known to be made by Christians, Hindus, Jains or other minority religions, buy nothing made in Pakistan.

Yes, honor killing is Islamic product. Because, Islam is enemy of Civililzed Life.
John Kisaka says
There I’d absolutely no “Honor” in brutally killing a fellow human without the due process of the law. These are just stone age mindsets that have chosen to remain pre-civilization.
