LONDON: An Islamic marriage guide advising men on ‘the best ways’ to beat their wives has sparked outrage in Britain, especially among moderate Muslims who say that it encourages domestic violence.
The book – ‘A Gift For Muslim Couple’ – tells husbands that they should beat their wives with “hand or stick or pull her by the ears”, the Daily Mail reported.
Authored by Maulavi Ashraf Ali Thanvi, who is understood to be a prominent Islamic scholar, the 160-page book claims to be a “presentation for newlyweds” or couples who have been together for some years.
“The book… deals with the subject of marriage and after marriage relationship, as well as the various pitfalls of marriage, causes of breakdown and their causes,” reads the book’s blurb.

Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi is so-called Deobandi scholar. About him, here is one Fatwa.
Islamic scholar Ahmad Raza Khan issued a fatwa of kufr against Thanwi for his alleged disrespect to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) Khan gave his fatwa on the basis of Thanwi’s belief that the “knowledge of unseen” possessed by Muhammad could be attained by the epileptics and the insane, the animals and the beasts as well.[3] Khan’s fatwa has been confirmed by 35 Islamic scholars of Mecca and Medina as well as by 250 scholars from the Indian sub-continent.
When one analyses such Fatwas, then can you tell who will Muslim on this planet?
