The correct way to beat your wife!
Saudi Marriage 'Expert' Advises Men in 'Right Way' to Beat Their Wives

Move over, Dr. Phil, there's a new relationship expert in town.
He's Saudi author and cleric, "Dr." Muhammad Al-'Arifi, who in a remarkable segment broadcast on Saudi and Kuwaiti television in September, counseled young Muslim men on how to treat their wives.
"Admonish them - once, twice, three times, four times, ten times," he advised. "If this doesn't help, refuse to share their beds."
And if that doesn't work?
"Beat them," one of his three young advisees responded.
"That's right," Al-'Arifi said.

He goes on to calmly explain to the young men that hitting their future wives in the face is a no-no.
"Beating in the face is forbidden, even when it comes to animals," he explained. "Even if you want your camel or donkey to start walking, you are not allowed to beat it in the face. If this is true for animals, it is all the more true when it comes to humans. So beatings should be light and not in the face."
His final words of wisdom?
"Woman, it has gone too far. I can't bear it anymore," he tells the men to tell their wives. "If he beats her, the beatings must be light and must not make her face ugly.
"He must beat her where it will not leave marks. He should not beat her on the hand... He should beat her in some places where it will not cause any damage. He should not beat her like he would beat an animal or a child -- slapping them right and left.
"Unfortunately, many husbands beat their wives only when they get mad, and when they start beating, it as if they are punching a wall - they beat with their hands, right and left, and sometimes use their feet. Brother, it is a human being you are beating. This is forbidden. He must not do this."

Under the old common law in America and the UK which was "the law" in most states until the 1920's allowed a husband to use the "rule of law" on his wife!
The rule of law was you could beat your wife with a stick no bigger then your right hand index finger. In the west we did not care about the bi7hes faces[;)]

Not true. What they have in common is being married to an abuser.
Sandy listens to me about 10% of the time. I've never layed a hand on her.0 -
If I recall correctly, Heff, you are sick and disabled.
So am I.
I have never laid a hand on, or yelled at a woman.

Atta girl, Sandy.
No reflection on you Dan. It's just something we girls have to do...
To any man who would think about beating your partner...
You have to sleep sometime.....0 -
I'd hit a woman, but only if they hit me several times and with enough force to draw blood, and only then in self defense.
However, the Muslim's comments would, in general, apply well to the proper way to spank a child. Not in the face, not overly hard, etc.0 -
If I had known you could beat your wife I may not have had to go thru so many divorces. Don 0 -

Ten-thousand battered women in the world, and I've been eating mine plain all this time. 0 -
Greetings all,
I have to ask my friends here to not forget that what this guy is saying about beating his wife is about the same thing most "christian" men did in this country about a hundred years ago.
We as a society underwent a cultural change. They have not went thru a cultural change yet. If we are to be "apalled" or "surprised" or "judgemental" when we hear him speak of this subject. Then we are just admiting that we don't know or we have forgotten our own history.
Don't blame the "Muslim" religion alone for "his" cultural views, no more than we can blame any or all religion in general.0 -

-The muslim cleric is simply repeating a cultural way of life that is as ingrained in him as any western customs are ingrained in us. I do note that he cautions men to be careful in beating their wives, if you can even imagine that as a positive thing. It goes to show the cultural gap between that world and ours and is an open window to the future of the war in Iraq.
Anyway, I think MOST men (American men) who beat women have serious emotional problems. That smaller number of men who beat women enjoy it.
The first group needs help. The second group needs prison.
Either way, the woman involved has to escape the enviornment, but most are trapped emotionally/psychologically in the relationship.0 -
(looks at thumb bemusedly) "eh, ya can't do much damage with that then can ya?"
'Rule of thumb'? They should've called it the 'Rule of Wrist'!

My oldest daughters first husband beat her ONCE.
When he woke up the next morning it was with a cocked 12ga. sXs between his eyes.
The divorce was 4 yrs. later but he was afraid to ever get in her face again.

I can understand and respect that.
However, any man, even a father, who doesn't realize how some women will provoke you just to see how much you take, hasn't done much living.
Because women these days, especially if they want out, or just want something to bludgeon you with, will F with you all they can to see what you'll endure without going off.
