I Told My Daughters To Retaliate If Their Husbands Slap Them – Emir Sanusi by Dapromzy333(m): 8:46am On Dec 10
The 16th Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has reiterated his firm stance against domestic violence, declaring that he has instructed his daughters to retaliate if their husbands ever slap them, News360 Nigeria reports.

Speaking on Monday at the National Dialogue Conference on Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Prevention, held at Bayero University Kano, Sanusi underscored the importance of women defending themselves against abuse. The event, themed “Islamic Teachings and Community Collaboration for Ending Gender-Based Violence,” was organized by the Centre for Islamic Civilization and Interfaith Dialogue (CICID) in collaboration with the Development Research and Projects Centre (dRPC), with support from the Ford Foundation.

Sanusi revealed that he consistently advises his daughters before marriage not to report cases of being slapped by their husbands unless they have taken steps to defend themselves.

Highlighting alarming statistics, Sanusi noted that 45% of cases across nine Shariah courts in Kano over the past five years pertain to domestic violence, with women suffering severe injuries such as broken limbs and lost teeth due to spousal abuse. His research into family law further underscores the prevalence of domestic violence in many homes.

He said: “You can interpret certain verses to justify light beating, but in reality, no one adheres to the rules of restraint. What we witness are cases of severe violence where women are beaten, punched, and kicked. My research in Kano’s Shariah courts revealed that not one case involved ‘light beating.’ Instead, women suffered extreme harm, including broken bones and teeth.”

The Emir emphasized that any form of domestic violence, including beating, is explicitly prohibited in Isla.

“Beating your wife, daughter, or any woman is haram (forbidden). Violence against another human being violates their basic dignity. We must teach our daughters not to tolerate it and educate our sons that it is unacceptable.”

He added, “If my daughters are ever slapped by their husbands, they know I expect them to slap back. I did not send my daughters to be abused. If you dislike her, send her back to me, but do not raise your hand against her.”

Earlier, Dr. Hassan Karofi, Director of Partnerships and Strategic Communications, outlined the goals of the conference. The event aimed to use Islamic teachings to advocate for the prevention of GBV in Northern Nigeria through the Muslim Opinion Leaders for Gender-Based Violence Prevention Project (MOLS4GBV).

Karofi explained: “This initiative leverages the influence of religious leaders to challenge harmful cultural norms and promote justice and protection for women. By aligning Islamic principles with modern GBV prevention strategies, the conference seeks to foster dialogue and actionable solutions among faith-based organizations, youth groups, traditional leaders, and government bodies.”

The event, coinciding with the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, emphasized justice, dignity, and the safeguarding of women as central tenets of Islamic teachings.

I don't think that's the way to go at all. Why not tell them to report the domestic violence to the right authority instead of retaliating and getting beat up more and more🙄🤔

Valvulenze Emir

How do people allow misunderstanding to lead to physical attack. Does that mean so the called caring for each other stopped for that little moment?

Hahah, call me a coward but I won't even allow the argument to reach that level before I will excuse myself

Lol

But I thougt Islam supports women docility
You should bow to your husband all the time, you should never resist any abuse by your husband.

I am sure northern Islamic clerics are already warming up to castigate him.

That Sarki guy on twitter would have condemned this but he won't be able to say sh*t be he supports Sanusi against Bayero.

Good. But, what if they retaliate and get killed? Moreover, it's time we also start emphasizing certain misdemeanors of women that may lead to them getting beaten. Provocation has a place in law.

Finally, if we have 'International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women', it's only fair to also create a similar day to talk about violence against men. Many men are dying in silence and shame, not being able to talk about certain forms of violence from their women. Just the way a recent report has it that many Nigerians are dying in silence and shame.

Don't forget to work on their characters.







If your daughters were well trained not to frustrate their husband, there won't arise issues of slapping.

you tend to look up to someone as an intellectual,

The person will just suddenly fall your hand with one school of thought.

Look up to God alone for Wisdom.

Why will you ask a lady to retalliate when a Man lays His hands on Her, Does that make any sense?

Firstly, 2 wrongs dont make a right.
Secondly, The Woman likely wouldnt be as strong as the Man
Also, Doesnt it seem right for a Woman to try to quench a fire of anger rather than fanning it ?

In the name of equality, Women are exponentially loosing it.

Men are also becoming more and more weak

No matter how strong the lady is, a man will be stronger, except the man is a peaceful and calm guy. One punch from a man will end the fight in seconds

Women can't withstand a man's strength, forget all this talk bro. Men are far more stronger than women. Just one good punch from the man and the fight will be over.
