Every individual has right to live life as per their choice of profession, of partner..If brother or any other family member feels that the guy, sis is involved with, is not right, he should try to convince her . But killing own sister(for that matter anyone), is unpardonable. And I agree Nadia, we should never get used to these incidents/crimes.tabassumnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9088783565849701867.post-26157189044478933892010-04-21T11:16:20.970+04:002010-04-21T11:16:20.970+04:00May she rest in peace ...
Honestly, I can see the...May she rest in peace ...<br /><br />Honestly, I can see the point both Alice and Anon are making, but I think it would not solve anything ... only make things worse ... we already have too much, waaaaaay too much, killing going on ... if we were to take the 'eye for an eye, and tooth for a tooth' seriously it would not discourage anything - but actually make everything worse - and we'd all end up both blind and toothless!<br /><br />It's bad enough that women are being killed for 'honour' - if we were to turn around and start executing men in turn, what on earth would we have left? ... instead, we should focus on getting rid of 'honour' killing or any kind of killing at all ...<br /><br />I have one question - Nadia, you say that the motives of this man, this brother, for killing his sister, his own flesh and blood, are not yet clear, but you are "pretty sure it involved another man/lover". What does this mean? 'another' man/lover? Do you mean that she might have had a lover in secret and he found out about it and killed her for the sake of his family's 'honour'? It is not clear because you say 'another' ... Surely you do not mean that this brother was his sister's lover, and that he killed her because he thought she was seeing someone else 'behind his back'? <br /><br />If so, this is potentially more twisted even than his murder of her ... which, by the by, does not sound like a killing for honour, but like a murder inspired in horrific passionate rage ... I mean, he stabs her to death, THEN he shoots her, in the face?!<br /><br />Uff, what a tangled web we weave ... please elaborate on motives if you get the chance.<br /><br />Peace.One Womannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9088783565849701867.post-68889777164333183582010-04-21T08:26:15.858+04:002010-04-21T08:26:15.858+04:00Allah yer7amha :(Allah yer7amha :(Salima Al Masrourihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01504192166558072281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9088783565849701867.post-67772140685079595902010-04-19T07:40:08.876+04:002010-04-19T07:40:08.876+04:00Honor killing ...

How many men raped women! What can be more dishonourable than that for the relatives of that rapist man! But did his sisters or even his brother or father murdered him for brining such a disgrace on the family? Maybe WE as women should start doing that (murdering every man amongst our relatives who has relationships outside wedlock), then men would be scared and would not dare to spoil our reputation with their shameful behaviour.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9088783565849701867.post-9042470535769725822010-04-18T16:00:31.624+04:002010-04-18T16:00:31.624+04:00:-S Thank you for updating us.

Men need to stop correlating their "priceless honour-ego" with women (female chastity). I can understand it in a way.. would be ok if BOTH men and women had to comply to the same requirements. But in this culture the woman is always responsible and to be blamed for the honour of the entire family. While men can do lots of horrible things and not care about their OWN "honour" or honour of those women with whom they do the haraam things. I can hardly believe the world is so wrong, maybe it's me and not the world... :-SAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
