Saudi Marriage 'Expert' Advises Men

[Capper]

While jokingly I'm sure we're all like "I want that channel", and "Great advice"......this shows you how backwards these people really are.

Move over, Dr. Phil, there's a new relationship expert in town.
He's Saudi author and cleric, "Dr." Muhammad Al-'Arifi, who in a remarkable segment broadcast on Saudi and Kuwaiti television in September, counseled young Muslim men on how to treat their wives.


"Admonish them – once, twice, three times, four times, ten times," he advised. "If this doesn't help, refuse to share their beds."
And if that doesn't work?


"Beat them," one of his three young advisees responded.
"That's right," Al-'Arifi said.

He goes on to calmly explain to the young men that hitting their future wives in the face is a no-no.


"Beating in the face is forbidden, even when it comes to animals," he explained. "Even if you want your camel or donkey to start walking, you are not allowed to beat it in the face. If this is true for animals, it is all the more true when it comes to humans. So beatings should be light and not in the face."



His final words of wisdom?


"Woman, it has gone too far. I can't bear it anymore," he tells the men to tell their wives. "If he beats her, the beatings must be light and must not make her face ugly.


"He must beat her where it will not leave marks. He should not beat her on the hand... He should beat her in some places where it will not cause any damage. He should not beat her like he would beat an animal or a child -- slapping them right and left.


"Unfortunately, many husbands beat their wives only when they get mad, and when they start beating, it as if they are punching a wall – they beat with their hands, right and left, and sometimes use their feet. Brother, it is a human being you are beating. This is forbidden. He must not do this."


Take that, Match.com!

What do you tell a woman with 2 black eyes?















Nothing, you've already told her twice.

I don't get it. I thought everyone knew how to beat a women. This is a sad world :P

We saw a guy beating his wife in Tikrit, Iraq. Other men were egging him on. I'd like to of known what the other women around thought about it, I can read facial expressions as well, if not better, than the next guy. But you can't see their faces in the "country" areas. They all wear veils. In the cities, quite a few women show their faces, but they still have the veil to cover up real quick if the situation warrants. Like when a Shaman walks out into the street or any male tells them to cover their face. They just do it.

Those people are, by and large, barbaric in their treatment of women and non-Muslims.

We need to get back to basics like that.
