    So prophet Mohammed beat his slaves?
    And you can beat your wife with a toothbrush? How can you beat someone up without causing any pain?

    I don't think he beat slaves, he'd set them free!

      I'm sure he did

      I was referring to this hadith Could any of you beat his
      wife as he would beat a slave, and then lie with her in the evening

        Beating is humiliation, no matter how, from the moment a hand is raised. Try do it to a child, just touching them with one finger. They will burst crying, not because it was painful, but because they know you are angry and are punishing them.

        Moreover, why respond to me with the silly traditionalist justification? Where does it say in the verse (lightly) or with anything? Just as I guessed, they water down their sick explanation by adding mitigating words to the verse such as "lightly", "not painful", "with a handkershief"...his

        With all this, he stipulated in his sermon on the occasion of
        the Farewell Pilgrimage, shortly before his death, that beating should be resorted to only
        if the wife "has become guilty, in an obvious manner, of immoral conduct",

        Does this mean the prophet did know the qur'aan, and could not recollect that the quraan explains what to do in case of the obvious manner of immoral conduct (246)?
        And why are you quoting hadith?

                            Is this supposed to be a response to my question?

                            How does "dharaba" become "punish"? Can you find such a meaning in classical arabic dictionaries?
                            The translator simply couldn't say "strike them/beat them up", because he will have to say which part of the body and with what, and even then, it will no more be "dharaba", but "latama", sakka", rafasa"...many many words. The meaning "strike/beat" does not stand for "dharaba" by itself.

                            Salaam,

                            what do you think about 273 and 3793 in these verses there is no mention of any specific part of body

                            http//www.submission.org/efarsi/arabic/Surat2_files/2_73.gif

                            http//www.submission.org/efarsi/arabic/Surat37_files/37_93.gif

                            I havn't seen any example where darb mean "beat" without mentioning of "with what" so you seem right about that though.

                              That is truly a very interesting observation. This alone would prove that "idribuhunne" in 434 does not say "beat them".

                                Most Christians believe in one God, they just get a little confused with this trinity thing (which, of course was not in the early Christian Church, was put there by the Church of Rome about 900 years ago)

                                Actually, that happened a bit less than 1700 years ago.

                                          You need to mention only "Maf3ool Bihi " after the verb "Dharaba".If you mention "weapon" or not that is immaterial as in the verses I have given you as an example.
                                          Seebavayh in his famous book "alkitab" gives the following example.

                                            • ( 1 / 6)
                                              .
