What do you say to a woman with two black eyes?
Joe Burling | 2:57 PM on 11.02.2007 36 comments


Muhammad Al-'Arifi, Saudi marriage expert, isn't into video games but he does believe in violence. During a Saudi and Kuwaiti television broadcast in September, he teaches young men how to beat their wives. Some of his suggestions include...

"Admonish them – once, twice, three times, four times, ten times," he advised. "If this doesn't help, refuse to share their beds." And if that doesn't work? "Beat them."

"Beating in the face is forbidden, even when it comes to animals," he explained. "Even if you want your camel or donkey to start walking, you are not allowed to beat it in the face. If this is true for animals, it is all the more true when it comes to humans. So beatings should be light and not in the face."

"Woman, it has gone too far. I can't bear it anymore" he tells the men to tell their wives, "If he beats her, the beatings must be light and must not make her face ugly.

"He must beat her where it will not leave marks. He should not beat her on the hand... He should beat her in some places where it will not cause any damage. He should not beat her like he would beat an animal or a child -- slapping them right and left."

"Unfortunately, many husbands beat their wives only when they get mad, and when they start beating, it as if they are punching a wall – they beat with their hands, right and left, and sometimes use their feet. Brother, it is a human being you are beating. This is forbidden. He must not do this."



Jack Thompson needs to quit wasting his time with video games and start focusing on some of the real causes of violence in the world.

How to beat your wife:


Only use a stick as big around as your thumb.

Good to know that you should use more force to beat children and animals than to beat your wife. Then you can get angry at them for making you do it.

But there's no publicity in causes that matter! People don't want to blame other people, they want to blame faceless corporations and industries.

Well, at least they advise to not "make your woman ugly."

Man, I am a snaileb. I thought the punchline was Muhammad Al-'Arifi, because I didn't understand it.

I should have, as old as that joke is. Good job Grim.

I certainly do not condone this, but the Fox News report is misleading (imagine that!).

You can watch the whole video here. He says that beating is a last resort and should be done with a toothpick (small twig). The point is not to cause pain, but to show exasperation. Still wrong, but not quite as brutal.

The article is serious but that doesn't mean you can't have fun in the comments. That's the power of the innernets, at least until the terrorists steal them all.

Orcist and Grim are one. I have a bruised nutbag to prove it.
