JUSTICE!
I love the quranic flowchart of conflict resolution within a committed relationship. Shame her, withhold the peener, and then slap her around.
I really would like to know if you're ignoring posts on intention.
My OP says:
Quote:Sura 5, The Quran:
Abul Ala Maududi(With tafsir)
https://quran.com/5/45?translations=
(5:45) And therein We had ordained for them: 'A life for a life, and an eye for an eye, and a nose for a nose, and an ear for an ear, and a tooth for a tooth, and for all wounds, like for like.4 But whosoever forgoes it by way of charity, it will be for him an expiation.5 Those who do not judge by what Allah has revealed are indeed the wrong-doers.
We must apply this verse upon ourselves too. We can't take a part of the Quran and neglect the other part.
So this should make the "wife beating" urban legend clear: it is a very fair sentence in a religion that teaches justice, an eye for an eye, but also teaches that forgoing and forgiving is a very noble thing.
Thank you.
