A local bookstore has “sold out” of a controversial marriage guide that advises Muslim men on how to beat their wives.

The 160-page book, published by Idara Impex in New Delhi, India, is written by Hazrat Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi, who’s described in the book’s foreword as a “prolific writer on almost every topic of Islamic learning.”

The store’s manager, who didn’t give his name, said the book had been sold out for some time, and the store’s owner, whom the manager identified as Shamim Ahmad, refused to comment for the story.It wasn’t clear whether the shop has ordered more copies of the book, but it’s available at online Islamic bookstores and even through eBay.

In the book’s opening pages, it is written that “it might be necessary to restrain her with strength or even to threaten her.”

Later, its author advises that “the husband should treat the wife with kindness and love, even if she tends to be stupid and slow sometimes.”

Page 45 contains the rights of the husband, which include his wife’s inability to leave “his house without his permission,” and that his wife must “fulfil his desires” and “not allow herself to be untidy  but should beautify herself for him … ”

In terms of physical punishment, the book advises that a husband may scold her, “beat by hand or stick,” withhold money from her or “pull (her) by the ears,” but should “refrain from beating her excessively.”

Comment by Jim Campbell

In the spirit of forgiveness both organizations must be banned from operating within the United States, both desire to subvert the U.S. Constitution. 

Today the HRC passed the 19th session’s equivalent to 16/18 without significant changes to the text.  There was no vote, our delegation lifted Satan’s tail and inserted their tongue.

I view the passage of these resolutions as an occasion for redoubling exposure of the damnable doctrines & practices of Islam.  Once I send this email, I will utter and publish to the venues available to me, but Bloggersbase, which gave me the largest potential audience, is down for the count. Very few eyeballs will see this unless it gets cross posted on more popular blogs.
