"Does the Quran Tell Men to Beat Their Wives?"
Special Update: NO - IT DOESN'T
- The Quran orders men to "Protect and Defend - ALL WOMEN" the word often mistranslated as "beat lightly" is better understood as the English term "percuss" (an action doctors use while examining patients upper torso - light tapping while listening to their backs or chests).
(ref: explanation of surah An-Nisa, verse 34)
We receive many questions concerning the treatment of women in Islam in general and what Muslim men do with their wives in particular.
This article written by former Christian convert to Islam, Chaplain (Imam) Yusuf Estes helps to bring light on this most important subject.

UK Arch Bishop Calls for Islamic Law? (Shari'ah)
"Not Exactly"
Why the uproar? - Did he convert to Islam? Has he lost his mind?
No - Not really. In fact, the archbishop of Canterbury, the Angelican Church's highest priest, really said -

Archbishop applauds
Islamic & Jewish Law

| "subject to the agreement of all parties and the strict requirement of protecting equal rights for women, it might be a good idea to consider allowing Islamic and Orthodox Jewish courts to handle marriage and divorce." |
"For many, the word Shariah (Ar. = The Law of God Almighty) conjures horrors - cutting off hands of criminals - whipping adulterers - oppressing women . . . |
|
But in fact, all through history - the Islamic Shari'ah - has offered the most liberal and humane legal principles available anywhere in the world."

What Did Bush Really See in the Pope's Eyes? Was it "God" or "Allah?"
Remember when Bush said, "Christians and Muslims worship the same God?" Does that mean he saw "Allah" in the Pope's eyes?
Keep in mind, Bush also said he saw the "soul" of Mr. Putin in his eyes. What did that mean?
Does Bush really think he can see people's souls - does he think he can see "Allah"?
Question: "What do you see when you look into Mr. Bush's eyes?" (read my editorial comment at the end of the article)
