Qur'an Verse 4:34 - 'Beat the Wife'? quranverse434
-
It does not make sense contextually if we use beat. I have <a href="https//free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=9609716.0">outlined just several questions</a> which arise in case we use it. Leave or how someone suggested here 'cite' (which I too believe it is not) makes more sense contextually.
I also believe it is one of the most important verses in the Quran because the way we translate it forms our understanding on society as a whole. As someone who despises authority I believe that patriarchal mindset which allows to keep wives as slaves and beat them automatically creates a mindset which allows to control others and keep them as slaves or labour workers. That is how governments, states and wars and everything shitty we have is created. It all comes from the family and instincts.

I read your 434 explanation on your website and the way you presented evidences from the Quran was amazing. Sorry for my little understanding of English. What do you mean by "CITE THEM". Do you mean refer them to the court? or tell someone about their misbehavior?. Your argument is that (which i understood from your article) how would authority know that there is a rift in relation between husband and wife. The only way is if someone tell them. Husband or wife or any other close family member would inform the court. Am i correct?
Also, in your view "NUSHOOZ" mean cheating with husband?.
I know it is a very stupid question but to understand fully i need to ask you those type of questions.
Peace.

Nushooz cannot mean cheating. Zina means "cuckolding" and is when a wife cheats with another man. Nushuz LITERALLY means uprising. Essentially it is recalcitrance, mistreatment, going against the husband, etc.

I have just added two further translations which support this view of 'shun/turn away them' to the list of translations on the website
Mohammad Shafi - 'Turn away from them'
Safi Kaskas - 'Depart away from them'

And as for those wives are concerned about whom you (respective husbands) remain afraid of their discordant conduct, the following course of action is hereby prescribed
Thereat, politely and lovingly advise them ?
And you husbands move them to separate bed within the bedrooms ?
And you the husbands strike transit them (such wives) out of the bedrooms open in house rendering the suspended matrimonial relation apparent to entire family.
In response to any of aforesaid options given to you if they accepted your word; thereby, you should not pursue to find excuses against them.
This Baab has the particularity that its verbs can both be Stative and Dynamic. Here it is stative and is an instance.

Good to see your view on this subject has changed since the beginning of this thread. Being able to change one's opinion is a sign of sincerity.

What happened to the website, it's no longer that same domain.
-
Domain registration probably lapsed so someone else took it.
There is always www.Quran434.com (which has been tested by posting it on here and on Islamophobia websites offering money for disproving it but no-one so far able to).
