User @Ajebodanny stirred controversy on X by posting, “If you misbehave as a Muslim wife, your husband stops sleeping with you and is allowed to beat some sense into you. Quran 4:34,” attaching an image as supposed proof.
This statement misinterprets Quran 4:34, a verse widely debated and often misunderstood. Many scholars clarify that the verse does not encourage violence but suggests patience and reconciliation. Islamic teachings fundamentally discourage abuse, aiming instead to protect and honor marital relationships.
Posts like these spread harmful stereotypes, fostering misunderstanding about Islam. Addressing religious texts requires accuracy and respect to avoid misrepresentation and promote better interfaith understanding.
