Why there are so many acts of violence against women in Muslim Communities when Quran and Hadith strictly forbid any type of violence against them???
1) Is it because muslims mainly are ignorant of the teachings of their own religion?
2) Is it because those muslims misinterprete the teachings of Islam?
3) Or is it just the anger that muslim men can't control?
Or is it something else?
Violence has nothing to do with religion or gender. It is a mental illness of those who commit those crimes.
Does the violence against women does not happen in non Muslim communities , so called civilized societies ?
Do other societies and civilizations not forbid violence against anybody ? There are strict laws against even animals let alone in some societies but that does not stop people committing those crimes.
Were there no crimes during the days of our Holy Prophet(SAW) ?
Was there no spousal abuse during the days of Holy Prophet(SAW) Were there no requests for annulment of marriage by practicing Muslims during the days of our Holy Prophet(SAW) ?
If that was true then he(SAW) would not have to order cutting of hands or stoning to death , or lashing of criminals.
So the issue is not that Islam forbids something and people will stop doing those kind of things.
These things cannot be eliminated completely but reduced to minimum by enforcing laws and educating people.
Even in Saudi Arabia which has strictest sharia law these things happen but rarely, the reason is that the laws are implemented and carried out.
