#1 This kind of law is common, if sadly recent, in the west. Why isn't it common in the Muslim world?

The critics of the proposal say it is against Islam

Oh, that's why.

If the wife refuses, the rule of nusyus (recalcitrance) can be applied and the husband will no longer be responsible to provide for his wife.â

AKA "put out or get out". Never mind if she's feeling ill, or spent the day chasing the rug rats and doesn't have the energy...

âIntroducing the term ârapeâ in a marriage contradicts syariah laws because one of the objectives of marriage is to legitimise sex between a couple.â

There's that shariah, again. Funny how often it justifies bigotry, violence, and cruelty.

âHusbands have the right to have sex with their wives, but we want to remove the protection given to husbands who physically and sexually abuse their wives,â she said.

Protection that comes from... SHARIAH!!!
