That “news alert for feminists” bit was just a joke, friends. Feminists don’t care about Muslim women who are brutalized or killed according to Sharia provisions and Islamic mores. The narrative is that Muslims are always victims. The widespread tolerance for honor killing in many majority-Muslim areas doesn’t fit the narrative. So no one will either say or remember Jutti Bibi’s name.
In the Qur’an, a mysterious figure, known as Khidr in Islamic tradition, kills a boy in an apparently random and gratuitous attack. He then explains: “And as for the boy, his parents were believers, and we feared that he would overburden them by transgression and disbelief. So we intended that their Lord should substitute for them one better than him in purity and nearer to mercy.” (18:80-81)
And according to Islamic law, “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.” However, “not subject to retaliation” is “a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring’s offspring.” (Reliance of the Traveller o1.1-2).
Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. The Palestinian Authority gives pardons or suspended sentences for honor murders. Iraqi women have asked for tougher sentences for Islamic honor murderers, who get off lightly now. Syria in 2009 scrapped a law limiting the length of sentences for honor killings, but “the new law says a man can still benefit from extenuating circumstances in crimes of passion or honour ‘provided he serves a prison term of no less than two years in the case of killing.’” And in 2003 the Jordanian Parliament voted down on Islamic grounds a provision designed to stiffen penalties for honor killings. Al-Jazeera reported that “Islamists and conservatives said the laws violated religious traditions and would destroy families and values.”
Until the encouragement Islamic law gives to honor killing is acknowledged and confronted, more women will suffer.

Wow — thank you, Michael. RotT is probably the most important Islamic document almost totally unknown by most of the non-Muslim world. Having a copy readily available is priceless.
Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
What a crummy, information-free report! Let’s go through the five Ws of journalism…
(1) Who? Is “Liaquat” a surname? a forename? a stage name? (2) What? A strangulation murder. (3) When? There’s no date. (4) Why? Honor killing. (5) Where? Faisalabad(??).

U have to keep in mind that in pakistan, journalism – *real* journalism – can be fatal. the article appears in the english-language version of a pakistani website, so the writers must be careful not to attract too much attention from the pious ummah. if too much information is provided, the perp could be identified, and the family would probably accuse the writer of blasphemy (death penalty).
we should be grateful that the writer *and* the website have the cojones to publish this much.
James Lincoln says
b.a. freeman,
And *real* journalism in the United States can get you canceled…
Eleanor says
Yep James – and it’s so bad, that I’m certain they’d dispose of ‘real’ journalists if they could get away with it; so cancellation is the next best thing, in the hope that the ‘cancelled’ might dispose of themselves, which I’m sure will happen if it hasn’t already.

Mark, I think this was rather poorly translated into English–sounds like it, certainly. Often in Dar-al-Islam you have to take what you can find–just getting this story at all is better than nothing.
J. Morgan says
Horrible and gruesome and too common in Muslim households. Women aren’t even safe in their family’s home. It should be the shame of Islam, but alas because it is so acceptable under Sharia law, the brother will probably hardly pay a price for this murder. It’s hard to believe the parents would approve of what the brother did.
Kagman says
Sorry… all such complaints will find ‘Feminists’ tone-deaf. They’re inextricably tied into the obscenity that is global progressivism. Any independent thought will result in hazing and, eventually, excommunication. Just look at how the Feminists are responding to ‘transsexuals’ (read: men) competing in female sports – even at high school level. Teenage boys dresses as girls are, by Biden’s executive order, allowed into girl’s locker rooms and bathrooms. They are have effectively silenced themselves to this dangerous, ridiculous and obscene betrayal of common sense.
Expect no less with Muslim pedophile rape gangs.
Walter Sieruk says
Islamic “culture” is not actually a real culture but cruel savage primitive murderous system of brutal religious vicious violence. As seen in that malicious murder “custom” called “honor killing.”
Be that vicious murderous action take place in Afghanistan and Pakistan, in any other Islamic country and now even some Western nations, as in America ,NYC
About the topic of Islamic violence which, something, takes the form of the brutal cruel vicious and murderous action that is so inappropriately y called “honor killing.” This malicious misogyny is so heinous callous and malice- filled that it’s an affront to all that is good, decent and right. In addition, the author, Brigitte Gabriel in her book which is entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED on pages 171,172 , that “The shocking reality is that most Muslim men ,including those educated in the West ,have no objection to the degradation of women in their countries .Across the Muslim world, even in moderate Islamic countries, women’s’ rights are almost nonexistent…Women is Islam are considered unclean ,deemed inferior even to dirt.” In this just cited book it explains on page 176 that “Honor killings have also come to the West thanks to the rise of Islamic immigration. “
Indeed, they must be stopped !
rooare says
Islam cannot be ‘reformed’ for it’s adherents believe they are divinely commanded to subjugate the entire world under the brutal sharia, and anyone that will not submit is to be killed. Pillaging, enslaving, raping, murdering kaffirs, honor killing those that disgrace Islam, lying to further the Islamic agenda, and much more evil all come under this ‘divine’ rubric.
Walter Sieruk says
To rooare , that is right when you keyboarded “Islam cannot be ‘reformed…’ ” For Islam is ,in essence , and brutal violent and murderous religion. So the Qu ‘ran reveals ,as in 2:191. 4:48. 5:33. 9:5,111,123. 47:4.
The very best that might be hoped for, as in a some type of “reformed Islam” would be watered -down “Islam” that isn’t entirely based on the Qu ‘ran.
DavidR says
All Muslim men need a true brother in law who is also a brother in the true law. Or not.
Rufluc says
Muslim women should flee to the West and claim asylum, whilst all Muslim men should be totally barred, no exceptions. With that scenario the men will only have goats to shag and thankfully Islam will eventually die out. Oh happy days!
gravenimage says
Islam does victimize women, Rufluc.
Unfortunately, many Muslim women are also true believers in their vicious creed, and also present a threat to Infidels. I wish this was not so–but it sadly is. You cannot assume that all or even most Muslim women actually reject Islam.
Simon says
I used to know a Muslima who was quite happy with the practise of FGM…living in Birmingham UK….when pushed on it she dug her heels in and said it improved “matters”!!!!….some special kind of brainwashing going on there…..

News alert for feminists: Muslim murders his sister in honor killing after she has quarrel with her husband
………………….
The religion of blood and death–even of those who should be loved ones.
God, I hate Islam.
And yes–shamefully, most feniminsts in the West *are* silent about these atrocities.
James Lincoln says
A normal brother would say something like this:
“Jutti, I’m sorry to hear about your marital problems. Hopefully you can regroup your thoughts after spending a little time with mom and dad. If you want to talk, I’m here for you.”
Instead, he chokes his sister to death and buries her in a nearby cemetery – in order to preserve *his* honor.
If that isn’t evil, sick behavior I don’t know what is…
Uma Maheswar Nakka says
Very sad to read this news, though such type of news is not new.
And these Muslim ladies will never realize their suppressed position in Islam.
The day these respectable ladies revolt against these fanatics(even if they have to sacrifice their lives) such type of atrocities never end.
Apologies if I am wrong.

Walter Sieruk says
As for the brutal ,cruel vicious and murderous actions of Islamic misogyny which is so inappropriately called “honor killing.” This heinously wicked misogynists Islamic tradition reaches such n demonic extent of evil and madness that in number of Muslim nations ,as Iran Afghanistan and Pakistan and worse in America NYC if a girl or woman is raped she then might undergo being murdered in an “honor killing.”
This is worse that a terrible miscarriage it’s an outright outrageous affront to all that is decent, good right as well as sane. To actual punish the victim of raped and not the rapists is most hideous, vile and wrong. very wrong. The Bible teaches in Proverbs 17:15. “The Lord hates two things, punishing the innocent and letting the guilty go free.” [E.R.V.]
OLD GUY says
Different time different place same old story, islamic violence against women. Thank you Joe Biden for opening this countries borders to these animals. Nothing gained by allowing muslims/islamic men into our neighborhoods.
Shane Mann says
Today’s Feminists are mostly Leftists who don’t give a damn about women or girls. They are pro-Islam and are for allowing biological males to compete with girls and women.
