Muslim Men! Be Sure You Aren't Beating Your Wife Incorrectly
Terry Davidson reports for the Toronto Sun on a book that instructs Muslim men in the proper way to beat their wives ("by hand or stick." Can also "pull [her] by the ears"):
The 160-page book, published by Idara Impex in New Delhi, India, is written by Hazrat Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi, who's described in the book's foreword as a "prolific writer on almost every topic of Islamic learning."







And people want Sharia Law why?

I remember once where Hilary Clinton called George W. Bush something like "the greatest threat to women's rights on the planet."
While I certainly do not think Bush was a good president, anyone, especially a feminist leader, who would say something like that has obviously never experienced or witnessed real oppression.
After all, you can count how many Muslim* countries are pleasant places for women on your own fingers--provided you haven't had any chopped off for suspected petty shoplifting.
*Yes in know not all muslims are that way, and i personally know many kind muslims, yada yada yada. Completely accurate, and completely irrelevant, to the problem.

I wonder what it will take for Muslims to start questioning their religion and god.

There's a political angle to this story that's not covered in the article. The Islamic Books & Souvenirs store is in the Toronto Centre riding, which is represented in Parliament by Bob Rae, leader of the federal Liberal Party & would-be Prime Minister. When Eric Brazau (the guy in the picture) brought this book to the attention of Bob Rae's office, he was dismissed by a spokesman and told that it's just a religious text, the Bible's just as bad, etc. So there you go - beating your wife with a stick and pulling her by the ears is all just part of the rich tapestry of multiculturalism up here!
