Re: Marital Rape…
You should go back and read my own view on this issue. I am not saying that Islam wants this or even allows this. I am saying that some men abuse their power given to them by Allah and use certain religious laws for their advantage. It is also not that they will not be punished but that in a lot of situations the punishment either does not get carried out or a punishment does not exist.
I am good to my wife and want the same for my daughter and sister. There is a saying in Islam that if you do good then good things will happen to you and if you do bad then bad things. They have a religious right to say no in certain situations. I defend their right to say no in those. We Muslims are not allowed to change the laws of our religion nor do as we please. In situations where they have no right to say no then I do not defend them. Abuse can be grounds for divorce. If my daughter and sister wants it and they can get it then I will help them to.
My allegiance is to my creator.
