Re: Marital Rape…
That’s the hadith certain males misuse. My ex-mother in law kept repeating that one. Well, Islam also says that a husband should treat his wife with respect and honesty and make her happy too, just as she has to do for him. Which means amongst other things that she is not his sex slave. I think what they meant with this hadith was that certain nasty females use sex to harrass their husbands for one reason or another and that is not allowed and rightly so. Both the husband and the wife should treat each other with respect and I haven’t seen many couples sincerely do that.
True, but even then a person doesn’t always want to have sex. Even a loving wife can be ill or very very tired (especially after giving birth and having smaller children or having to look after his huge family all day long which also requires a lot of work and tires the wife since she is not a robot . . . ) or she just wants to spend time together for once not having to have sex.
I am not sure if this mentality is willing to treat women as human beings frankly, they are treating women worse than animals, here if you kick a dog you go to Jail, there are shelters for dogs where they get safety and caring. What happens to a man who abuses his wife in Pakistan..NOTHING
