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."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 IS 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."
Take that, Match.com!

Ok... if it is not to be on the face and must be light and not while he is angry... Hmmm sounds more like a spanking... lol... Just kidding. this is not a new thing coming from the east.

I know his name Hawaiigirl... tell ya all one thing I will not put up with a man(or he claims to be)who can dish it out and rag and wig out, but when I shut him down, he whimpered away... so been sitting on sidelines and back on tonight after 2 weeks....

Different cultures see things in different lights and some are more advanced and others less.... just like evolution of man.... vs a woman...

willy has no sense at all

Life is just too short to be SO angry! remember-- What Goes Around Comes Around! 3X3 so mote it be!

dang rights I am glad that I posted tonite... ...raised a reaction, didn't it? was looking for comments form all, not a fight from one. Sorry if it hit you at a bad time briana...but go ahead and vent on me...all men are jerks aren't we?

If you're implying that it is acceptable to hit woman in ANY manner, I strongly disagree. Humans are NOT animals. If you want to act like a dog and attack your wife, then I'll pretend I'm Michael vick, and beat your ***** ass.

Thank You Totage!

No....Willy....

Anyone who really knows me...knows I will BS and have fun...

Domestic violence runs rampant in the US and especially in the good ole state of Indiana and here it is who you know and who you blow...but seen men walk away with doing just this.... and it is BS!

I think the US would be more interested in matters in our own backyards than overseas....

Not all men are jerks Willy, there are some decent ones, course most of them live in other countries ROFL

Kai67 hey appreciate the meditation oohmmmm and ahhhs.... LOL and what goes around comes around, sheeeeeet gurl you sound like my sista now....

HaHaHaHa!!! funny part is... I moved away from Indiana and an abusive spouse. Well, Its only funny now...

What does this have to with anything?? Men beating women happens here in the states all the time, soooooo what is the point??

It is true... even the bible says "and God said let vengance be mine" and BOY can he do it!!

The man that puts his hands on me better kill me, cuz I will mess his a$$ up when he goes ta sleep.
