I'm also a Muslim (girl)\nAnd I believe the equallity between men and women.\nThere shouldn't be any discrimination between other sexes.

Sure it's possible to love both women in different ways. But a husband should remember that when he got married, these verses apply to his life now.\n\nTherefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.  Genesis 2:24 \n\nIn other words, his wife should be the primary focus of his love and he should...\n\nIn the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church,  Ephesians 5:28-29

Well, being a young woman waiting on the husband that God has for me, I can see precisely what you are saying. I am a confident young lady and yes I have had the upper hand with most of the men that I have dated. But I do not believe that it is because I am pushy. I believe that men have lost their rightful place in the household, men need to grow some backbone and stop letting women run all over them. I am not saying that a man should be violent to hold his place. He shold be firm yet gentle. Women also need to stop jumping into marriages that God didn't have favor over so then they would not have to show thier witts so much because the man that God has for them will respect them for what God has made them to be (by then, they woman will have already found herself). I am tired of my female friends who always have the same man problem when they need to find God and find who he made them to be. No man wants an annoying woman andthat is stated in the Bible because Solomen said it is is better to live on the corner of a rooftop than in a house with a quarrelsome wife.

why does it teach in Islam that a man can beat his wife\n\nTabari IX:113 “Allah permits you to shut them in separate rooms and to beat them, but not severely. If they abstain, they have the right to food and clothing. Treat women well for they are like domestic animals and they possess nothing themselves. Allah has made the enjoyment of their bodies lawful in his Qur’an.” \n\nWhy does it say in Islam that women are stupid\n\nTabari I:280 “Allah said, ‘It is My obligation to make Eve bleed once every month as she made this tree bleed. I must also make Eve stupid, although I created her intelligent.’ Because Allah afflicted Eve, all of the women of this world menstruate and are stupid.” \n\nBukhari:V3B48N826 “The Prophet said, ‘Isn’t the witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?’ The women said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘This is because of the deficiency of a woman’s mind.’” \n\nIshaq:584 “Tell the men with you who have wives: never trust a woman.” \n\nWhy does it say in islam that most people in hell are women\n\nBukhari:V1B22N28 “The Prophet said: ‘I was shown the Hell Fire and the majority of its dwellers were women who are disbelievers or ungrateful.’ When asked what they were ungrateful for, the Prophet answered, ‘All the favors done for them by their husbands.’” \n\nIshaq:185 “In hell I saw women hanging by their breasts. They had fathered bastards.” \n\nWhy does it say in islam that women should die by starvation\n\nQur’an 4:15 “If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, take the evidence of four witnesses from amongst you against them; if they testify, confine them to houses until death [by starvation] claims them.”\n\nWhy does it say in islam that you can force a woman \n\nQur’an 24:34 “Force not your slave-girls to whoredom (prostitution) if they desire chastity, that you may seek enjoyment of this life. [And here’s the freedom-to-pimp card:] But if anyone forces them, then after such compulsion, Allah is oft-forgiving.”

It's interesting how Muslims deny or lack knowledge  about their own faith!!! if you trust the translations of any Quran, then you must accept for a fact that God has given permission to the husband as the last "option" to hit his wife!!! \nNow,  because I am a woman  and Muslim who like to use logic, I refused to accept that, because I know for a fact, God does not use force to get things done! In Islam Divorce is an acceptable option given by God. I found a verse in the same chapter that uses the same root word (zha-ra-ba), translated as hit, as a totally different meaning, Moving out! so the last option would be a divorce not hitting your wife!!!! there are many verses that has been mis-translated in the Quran and Muslims are stupid and ignorant to realize that! another example is chopping off the hands of a thief, taken literally and it has been practiced for years!!! Muslims are in big trouble facing their creator!

First things first, the wife must get to and remain in a place of safety away from the abuser! No one can serve the Lord here on Earth when they're dead and too many women have trusted or felt sorry for an abusive man and ended up dead or permanently maimed. When someone is an abuser, you should never meet with them in person without the police or in a court supervised setting. The Book of Proverbs warns us to stay away from an ill-tempered man.\nNext, the woman should do whatever it takes to insure that there is a legal separation (abusers can harm legally and financially, too)and get custody of any children that may be involved.\nThe wife should also get into Biblical/Christian counseling. There are so many mental, emotional, physical and spiritual issues to deal with when emerging from an abusive relationship. Considering the "next" relationship should be put on the back-burner for quite some time. \nThe wife needs to continue to grow and nurture her relationship with Christ first. As she walks closely with Him, He will show her what steps to take.\nDivorce is a sin, but it certainly is not unpardonable. When Christ died for our sins, He died for all of them. There is new life and the possibility for a new marriage for Christians, but when leaving a marriage where so much abuse has been involved a lot of healing must take place first!

God doesn't follow his own teachings.  It is lust, and greed.  His first commandment shows that he would be envious if you worshiped anyone else.  He also killed babies in Egypt breaking his thou shall not kill commandment.  He also broke his commandment of not coveting your neighbors wife when he knocked up Mary.  If God went by his own rules, he'd be in hell!

You are exactly right.And that is what the bible teaches.Man is to be the leader of the household and his decisions should stand firm.The wife should be silent in the home and in the church.Of course this view will reap criticism from the new world order,but society changes and not the words of the bible

only if husband allows it

Yes, Rod C has the right answer for you here.\n\nHe totally dishonoured his brother.\nHe used his brother's wife for his own good pleasure and self-satisfaction, but dd not deliver what was required by God and the custom of ancient Israel.\nAs was pointed out, someone else had to carry out the proper responsibility to his brother ... and through that one, more honourable, came the Son of God.\nSo you can only imagine what God's response to this fellow's shallow act must have been!!!!\n\nIt was a case of 'pleasure and use of a vulnerable woman without honour and responsibility towards her'

Are you what... about 5 years old. Oddly enough muslims and christains and jews all worship the same god--the god of Abraham. So essentially you're asking if god can beat himself up for your pleasure.

And just like a battered wife, Christians will insist that it's their fault for being weak and fallible humans, that God is worthy of their love and they are unworthy of his, that anything God chooses to do doesn't have to be explained and we should just shut up and submit. Just like a battered spouse, Christians believe that as God provides everything they have, they have no right to object to his actions or question his rules.\n\nThe idea that Jesus made a sacrifice so that people may live is quite a strange one, but not original. Strange because it says that God sacrificed himself to himself, in order to change a law that he created himself. Not original because there are plenty of other dying, resurrecting man-gods and plenty were around before the Jesus story came about (Attis, Dionysus, Mithras, Osiris... the list goes on). And really, if you knew you were going to come back to life after your death, three days in hell is hardly a "sacrifice" - what of those who allegedly spend eternity there?\n\nAs to why Jesus is portrayed as a "wife-beater" you don't have to look any further than the Christian Bible:\n\n"But these mine enemies, that would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me." (Luke 19:27 - a parable, but very clear.)\n\n"If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned." (John 15:6)\n\n"If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple." (Luke 14:26) (For the record, this DOES say "hate", as the Greek is "miseo" which is the same root word from which we get other words such as "misogynist". It is also the same word that was used in the verse "Blessed are ye when men shall hate you." (Luke 6:22)\n\n"I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household." (Matthew 10:35-36)\n\nWhen speaking to his own mother, Jesus said, "Woman, what have I to do with thee?" (John 2:4)\n\nNot hard to see where Jesus gets his bad reputation. :)

I prayed to God to turn my abusive husband around three years ago. I begged God to do this.  It was never answered.  So, I'm divorcing him and giving up.

O.K., I love to tell this.\n\nWhen I became a Christian, I could no longer tolerate my unsaved, drinking, running around husband.\n\nI prayed, "God, please, give me a Christian husband instead."\n\nI knew God doesn't like divorce, so I didn't have any idea what He would do.\n\nYa ready?\n\nHe saved my husband. God is great all the time.
