No woman deserve such treatment in any situation.This man must be delt with accordingly. This is insane, this is inhuman and unacceptable. This is the 21st century, Not the era of “Jaahiliya” for God’s sake! Think about your mother, your sisters, your daughters , if another man should do the same to any of them.
Young Man, you need help you look smarter than this heartless act. And in the presence of your 1 & 4 yrs old toddlers, son, you have SOWN an Unforgettable Seed in the heart of your 4 yrs old girl. She’s going to be seeing daddy as a monster from now.
Remember, What Goes around Comes around. One day you would feel this Pain too, the PAIN you inflicted in her Parents and family.
It’s very bad to do such a thing to a stranger not alone to your wife. He doesn’t need to assault her, if he thinks the love has evaporated or finish he should rather divorce her and take her back home safely. She is the lady he claimed he loved and now whats wrong. May Allah forgive him and change him for good.
The lady doesn’t deserve such barbaric act, but if may ask, what happened ? Has the lady did something that triggered all these assaults ?
We need to watch what went wrong behind the seen!!!
May Allah forgive you and i wish the wife speedy recovery.
This is bad, this man should be dealt with, to deter others from doing so..
No matter offence she must have committed, he doesn’t have the right. She is his wife and not slave nor daughter
