Only in America can you have a case where a Muslim wife tries to cut the neck of her husband while he slept, because of the abuse she faced.
This bizarre case appears to involve the husband disgracefully forcing his wife to eat pork, drink alcohol and generally behave in a non Islamic manner yet ironically its the wife who the Police seem to believe was suffering from depression.
Clearly Rabia Sarwar went way over the top and one can only sympathise with her for the sort of suffering and abuse she must have faced. However, has she not heard of divorce which tends to be a more clean cut approach.
"slow burn syndrome" as it is known in Law - the woman's anger-collecting effect - the female gets angrier and angrier and then "loses her mind" for a prolonged period. This is actually very common in the Muslim world
ReplyDeleteSorry but Ms Jasmine do you think ratio of loosing mind by women in abuse is higher in Muslim world than the West? I don't think so. Women do not suffer quietly MORE in Muslim world but may be in some areas of the backward culture ( not Islamic as it gives freedom to every one within limits) including India, Bangladesh, Afghanistan etc. Women do not stay quiet in West for the same reason (obedience) but of course they do for other reasons. Crime and abuse rate (at least reported) is also higher in the West.
ReplyDeleteThe case in question has to be evaluated considering other aspects as it is not a normal attitude as she had a recourse to other ways out of this mess which she didn't take probably by choice.
