Post subject: violence against women forbidden in islam
And among His Signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell in tranquility with them, and He has put love and mercy between your (hearts): verily in that are Signs for those who reflect. [30:21]
In the event of a family dispute, the Qur?????????????????????¢??an exhorts the husband to treat his wife kindly and not to overlook her positive aspects:
O ye who believe! Ye are forbidden to inherit women against their will. Nor should ye treat them with harshness, that ye may Take away part of the dower ye have given them,-except where they have been guilty of open lewdness; on the contrary live with them on a footing of kindness and equity. If ye take a dislike to them it may be that ye dislike a something that Allah brings about through it a great deal of good. [04:19]
Prophet Muhammad always was against violence over women.
????????????????????????????«He never hit any female, and he used to say that the best of men are those who do not hit their wives. In one hadith he expressed his extreme repulsion from this behavior and said, ?????????????????????¢??How does anyone of you beat his wife as he beats the stallion camel and then embrace (sleep with) her??????????????????????¢?????????????????????? (Al-Bukhari, English Translation, vol. 8, Hadith 68, pp. 42-43)????????????????????????????» by Dr. Muzammil H. Siddiqi
This value of mutual respect amongst humans is a keynote to the Islamic moral code. The Prophet (pbuh) said:
?????????????????????¢??A Muslim would neither abuse nor speak bad words to, nor curse others.?????????????????????¢?? (Sahih Muslim)
Also, he always stressed the fact that men should treat their women in a fair way and never to use violence in dealing with them. He said:
?????????????????????¢??Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should not harm his neighbors. And I command you to take good care of the women.?????????????????????¢?? (Bukhari)
Even when women misbehave, tolerance and not violence is recommended, as a way to solve the problem. The Prophet (pbuh) said:
?????????????????????¢??No believing man should hate a believing woman, if he hates one of her manners, he should be satisfied with another.?????????????????????¢??
The Prophet also said: ?????????????????????¢??The believers who have the best manners are those who have the most perfect faith. The best amongst you are the best towards their wives.?????????????????????¢?? (Tirmidhi)
