This thread isn't exactly about I/P issues but I wouldn't doubt that Israel gets dragged into the conversation somewhere along the lines. To that end I'm putting it here as a safe guard against violating I/P subjects in other parts of the forum.

I know that there are many peaceful Muslims in this world that wouldn't hurt a fly. But this is the kind of thing that gives Islam a bad name and really should be rejected by all regardless no matter what.
Edit: Forgot the link, sorry: Islamic men can ‘lightly beat’ wives
Council of Islamic Ideology chairman Maulana Muhammad Khan Sherani says men should be allowed to ‘lightly beat’ their wives. Picture: AFP/Farooq Naeem
MUSLIM men should be allowed to “lightly beat” their wives if they refuse to have sex, fail to wear a hijab or don’t bathe, according to an Islamic constitutional body.
