The [[Qur'an]] clearly lays down the steps to be taken by a husband dealing with a rebellious wife: first he is to admonish her verbally, then he is refuse to sleep with her, and finally if she continues he is to beat her. This three-part plan forms the core of Islamic norms of authority in the marriage. The prophet Muhammad, both by his example and his instruction, enjoined the believers to beat their rebellious wives as he had. As a core principle of Islamic law, the condoning of wife-beating lives on today in the [[fatwa|futuwa]] of modern Islamic scholars, and [[Islamic Law]] does not recognize the beating of wives by their husbands as a crime unless grievous bodily injury results to the wife. | |||
