In the Qur’an, a mysterious figure, known as Khidr in Islamic tradition, kills a boy in an apparently random and gratuitous attack. He then explains: “And as for the boy, his parents were believers, and we feared that he would overburden them by transgression and disbelief. So we intended that their Lord should substitute for them one better than him in purity and nearer to mercy.” (18:80-81)
And according to Islamic law, “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.” However, “not subject to retaliation” is “a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring’s offspring.” (Reliance of the Traveller o1.1-2).
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.”
“Italian authorities identify remains of teenage victim in ‘honour killing’ case,” Reuters, January 4, 2023:
Italian authorities have found the body of an 18-year-old woman who went missing more than a year ago after refusing to travel to Pakistan for an arranged marriage, a lawyer for a rights group said on Wednesday.
Saman Abbas has been identified by dental records after human remains were found near to her family home in the town of Novellara in November 2022, Ansa news agency quoted lawyer Barbara Iannucelli as saying.
Abbas had not been seen since April 2021. Five members of her family including her father and uncle are due to go on trial next month over a so-called “honour killing” that shocked Italy….
Prosecutors believe that the family was angered when they found out that Abbas had a boyfriend in Italy.

mozlums are taught that when anyone *fights* them…as in, disagrees with them, tells the Truth about them, and/or won’t go along with their demonic demands, they get to murder that one.
Hopefully, the Italian jury will send these ghouls to a place where they can no longer murder anyone.
the poor young woman deserved better than she got…in family and life.

There is no love in islam none whatsoever. When a father can plan with another four members of his family to murder his own daughter, this should tell you everything what islam is all about. It’s the most evil, hateful, death cult, the world has ever known. And the more evil and hateful you are, the better the muslim you are.

Islamic “culture” is not actually a real culture but cruel savage primitive murderous system of brutal religious vicious violence. As seen in that malicious murder “custom” called “honor killing” which is permitted under Sharia law.
Be that vicious murderous action take place in Afghanistan and Pakistan, in any other Islamic country and now even some Western nations, as in this incident of murder in Italy.
About the topic of Islamic violence which, something, takes the form of the brutal cruel vicious and murderous action that is so inappropriately y called “honor killing.” This malicious misogyny is so heinous callous and malice- filled that it’s an affront to all that is good, decent and right. In addition, the author, Brigitte Gabriel in her book which is entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED on pages 171,172 , that “The shocking reality is that most Muslim men ,including those educated in the West ,have no objection to the degradation of women in their countries .Across the Muslim world, even in moderate Islamic countries, women’s’ rights are almost nonexistent…Women is Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.” In this just cited book it explains on page 176 that “Honor killings have also come to the West thanks to the rise of Islamic immigration. “
Indeed, they must be stopped !
Walter Sieruk says
The brutal, cruel, malice-filled and murderous Islamic tradition that so very inappropriately called “honor killing” by many Muslims in one of the many malicious and vicious deadly fruits of Islam.
Jesus taught, “By their fruits you will know them.” Matthew 7:20. [N.K.J.V.]
Walter Sieruk says
This may serve as an example of Islamic family “values.”
