Honor killings, which occur in the muslim environment, target women whose actions violate the honor of their family, an honor which is thought to depend on the sexual purity of its female members. Victims are always being mercilessly slaughtered by their own family members and is just another ugly element of backwardness and depravity that is islam.
Honor killing is the cruelty committed by the family members, father, brothers, brother-in-laws, and in some cases sisters and mothers, the victim is always the daughter/sister or other blood related young women who gets murdered. Killers are always family members. Family honor is one of the core values of the muslim environment. Anything from speaking with an unrelated man, to rumored premarital loss of virginity, or an extra-marital affair, refusing forced marriages or even victims of rape can stain or destroy the family honor. Therefore, family members kill the victim in order to remove the stain or maintain and protect the honor of the family. The killers mainly defend their act of murder by referring to the quran and islam, they will say that they are merely following the directives set down in their islamic beliefs. These barbaric killings occur only to save the honor of the family, and not for any animosity or for wealth. The victims cry, beg for their life but the family members become merciless (out of their ethical prejudices and also religious burden of fear) and kill the victim. After killing family members usually mourn and cry for the victim but feel solace that they have done the right thing to save their family honor.
This kind of murder to save family honor has happened, is still happening, and will remain to happen only in the muslim family environment. Honor killings happen in muslim nations such as Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Syria, Yemen, Lebanon, Egypt, Sudan, Palestine, Jordan, Pakistan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Nigeria, Somalia, Turkey, Iran and other south and central Asian countries where islam reigns supreme.
Muslim apologists and gullible or ignorant Westerners argue that honor killing is not islamic and it’s a tribal/cultural thing. This statement is utter bullshit and is another feeble attempt at taqiyya. It’s true that in pre-islamic culture this heinous honor killing of women did exist, likewise, many other uncivilized practices like stoning, flogging, beheading, slavery etc. also existed in the pre-islamic society. But islam has incorporate these inhumane/uncivilized practices which muslims now call allah’s laws. Had it been the tribal/cultural practice, honor killing would only exist amongst the Arabs. But honor killing does happen amongst the non-Arab muslims. Fact of the matter is, no Arab Christians, Jews or Bahai etc. practice this uncivilized act at all. Only muslims practice this heinous act with monotonous regularity...
