Hezbollah: Protecting women from violence is a religious obligation
30-1-2019
The member of Al Wafaa lil Mukawama parliamentary bloc (Hezbollah affliated), MP Nawaf Mussawi, said yesterday that protecting a woman, a wife or mother, is a human and moral duty supported by the Sharia. Mussawi, who was speaking during a meeting with a delegation from Kafa Enough Violence and Exploitation organization, sustained compliance with the above, irrespective of the covert plans by certain sides to sabotage our community’s cultural identity. Mussawi pointed out that during the discussion in the Parliamentarian sub-committee of the domestic violence bill, we stressed our commitment to the moral virtues prescribed in Islamic religious texts, including the founding of marriage and family on the qualities of mercy, love and living together that are essentially contrary to oppression, harm and violence. “Our attitudes and stands are in agreement with regulations issued by spiritual authorities,” Mussawi concluded.
