Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
But was it an attempted murder 
He didnāt beat her hence no punishment for him. The solution to their problem was divorce or separation but apprantely the woman didnāt want that because of citizenship or money so she thought just get rid of him altogether.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
Its not ez for women to take a stand like divorce or sepration, rem still in pak parents told daughter kay abb uss ghar say tumharaa janazaa hii niklay???if she is been here for only 5 months, she doesnt know how to survive, drive, hav friends?it wud be difficult for her, i can say all this b/c i had a second cousin gone quite a similar bit in her life. I know attempt to murder is a extreme action but ppl go psychotic when they had to live wid mental torture 24/7, she may hav tought kay main tu divorce lay loon gee but yeh bandaa kissi aur ki zindagii kharab karay gaa, anything cud be her reason.
yeah she mustāve thought apnay shohar ka jinaza kyon na nikal doonā¦and so she became vigilante, how cute.
Reason is she didnāt wanna take divorce and go back to pak. you need to have a lot of guts to slit someoneās throat, seriously.
so u think he only deserves punishment for physical violence? ru missing the fact that he force fed her pork? and how do u know tht she is only staying for money? didnāt u read the part tht sheās alone in the country and her family is back home? its easy for us to sit here in our cosy homes and automatically say divorce/separation but its not that easy when ur alone in a foreign country married to a beast.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
oh godā¦ 
So youāre saying itās much more easy for an adult woman to slit someoneās throat than dialing 911 and thus every single pakistani woman out of her country and sick of her husband should do that?
Fact is that she said āher husband didnāt force her on a gunpoint and she was happy outside but inside her heart a war was going onāā¦What does this mean?
Youāre right, itās easy for us to sit here in our cosy homes and support a person charged with attempted murder.
Thatās just it. We donāt know what it means. By her own account, there was no physical violence, but it appears there was emotional and verbal abuse Does this justify what she did? I have no idea. But I know heās not justified either in the way he treated herā¦physical abuse or no.
Ultimately, only Allah knows because only He saw what really took place and only He knows whatās in peopleās hearts.
For me, this story is a reminder that people in our Indian/Pakistani communities need a serious re-haul in how they think about marriage. Itās not ok to encourage your wife to do haraam things - whether or not you use physical force - and itās not ok to threaten to sue her or harm her family. It boggles my mind that anybody needs to be even told that, but thatās the state of things in many of our households. And itās not ok to break out the knives eitherā¦I totally sympathize that she may have felt threatened and just snapped one day because she couldnāt take it anymore, but sheās potentially messed up her life with this, now that sheās facing the possibility of jail time. People need some serious education about marriage in Islam and women especially need to learn about their options when things go southā¦especially here in the States. There are SO many optionsā¦there are shelters, there are the police, there are social servicesā¦our women shouldnāt be ashamed of going to these places for help. Thereās no shame in asking for help when youāre in over your head, but weāve made it a massive stigma in our community. That needs to change if for nothing else that something like this doesnāt happen again.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
Two sides to every story and without the husbandās version, we canāt make any conclusions.
For all we know, the woman has mental issues.
Totally agree with you. :k:
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
it doesnāt matter that he didnāt force her at gun point. according to the article she is a devout muslim woman who has been emotionally abused to the point of depression and forced to eat pork and drink alcohol. no one can justify the fact that she tried to kill him but itās obvious to see that she was driven to this level by her husband. no sane person would want to cut their husbands throat.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
^Inaya and HNK are right. Mental issues are a definite possibility. Iām not saying I donāt sympathize with her or that I think that her husband is a saint. I completely feel for her and Iām really not feeling bad for the guy. Iām just looking at this from a very practical perspective. Using mental issues/insanity as a defense is not an easy thing to do. Even if she gets off lightly, sheās going to have this on her record for the rest of her life which will have a massive and largely negative impact on her future. I just wish that she felt that she could have reached out to somebody or some organizationā¦I feel really bad for her that she was driven to the point where she felt this was her only option. And it makes my blood boil that there are people out there (i.e. her husband) who feel itās ok to say this stuff to their wives so long as theyāre ānot holding a gun to her head.ā Again, I would like to emphasize that the men in our community need some serious education on how to treat their wivesā¦just because you donāt use your fists doesnāt make you husband of the year. The Prophet (SAW) also emphasized ānarmiā and kindness in terms of how one should treat oneās spouse. Threatening to sue her and hurting her family doesnāt fall under the definition of gentleness and kindness. Additionally, the Prophet (SAW) also counseled Muslims that they should always encourage other Muslims to do the correct and Islamic thing. Encouraging oneās wife to expose her body and consume haraam substances completely goes against that teaching.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
i just dont get how you FORCE someone to eat pork and drink alcohol??? i mean literallyā¦if u trick them once ro twice the person should know by then to not let it happenā¦unless he deliberately held her down or something and forced it down her throatā¦then i can see her defense of being forcedā¦
i think sheā just has mental issues.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
sister Hareem makes some good points.
There does seem to be a lot missing from this story. The guy comes across a class A jerk but doesnāt deserve to have his throat slit unless he truly an apostate.
The woman seems to definitely have mental issues. I still donāt see how this guy can compel her to do all of these unIslamic things, particularly since I assume they were done outside the house.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
I am not buying her story. Something just isnāt right!
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
Theres always a better way to end things than cutting somones throatā¦
And i canāt believe people are sypmathizing with this monster! She could have left him, seek advice of someone from the local mosque, get divorced and seek legal help like a normal human. She was a total monster, I really hope she does some serious time in prison.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
I heard about this from my co-worker. I was shocked, but I wasnāt all ready to fully believe her like my co-worker was defending her. Iām sure weāll see more evidence or info. coming out of this story. Itās so sad.
You would be surprised at just how many people are not aware of this option. Especially in the UK where you have a significantly higher number of uneducated and socially handicapped import spouses.
My thoughts exactly.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
Itās 999 in the UK in case anyone wanna dial it.
Re: Muslim woman: Husband made me eat pork
^ Everyone please take heed of this advice asap if u r currently entertaining throat slitting tendenciesā¦ DIAL NOW, IT COULD HELP YOUR DEFENCE CASE LATER!
