- Men are in charge of women by [right of] what Allah has given one over the other and what they spend [for maintenance] from their wealth. So righteous women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband's] absence what Allah would have them guard. But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance - [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them. But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them. Indeed, Allah is ever Exalted and Grand. [4:34]

This man is one of the truly great spiritual teachers and leaders of our day. His words are always on time.
Absolutely agree
True 💯
With all due respect to my Muslim brothers and sisters, I'm Muslim revert, don't belong to any sects, so I learnt Quran myself. Quran warns to beware of deviant translations, the word 'beat' is not even there. Also bear in mind Quran has mostly been translated by men as throughout history men have assumed the leadership of all faiths and injected their own chauvinistic views, a human flaw.
only recently we've had women translate it. Humans are not infallible. Quran read in its entirety: As a team, you keep each other in check. Unlike bible that says submit to husband, Quran denote obedience to God not human beings (verse has been misunderstood or misinterpreted), all have a moral duty to guide & discipline each other toward obedience to God.
4:34 root word daraba - It's an idiom/metaphor/analogy which was translated literally "to strike". The idiomatic meaning is like "to go on strike/protest". To use an analogous example in English,"strike a balance" or "strike a pose" or "didnt it strike you as strange" are other idiomatic uses for the verb "to strike". It can also mean "kiss and make up"(analogy)
I've never been more grateful to be female because females have an elevated status in Quran: Allah in His infinite wisdom instructs the stronger sex to look out for the weaker sex.
Adapted from translations by Ahmed Ali (Princeton edition) and Laleh Bakhtiar: 4:34
Men are to take care of women (qawwamuna 'ala an-nisa: support, watch over, protect, caretaker, guardian, maintainers/overseers of affairs, attend to, look after, be in charge of) as God has given them greater strength (provisioned by Allah), and because they support them from their means (tasked with supporting them financially). Virtuous women are obedient (when it's in line with obeying God's commandments) and guard the secrets of their husbands with Allah's protection. As for those on whose part you fear disobedience(nushooz- does not refer to a simple disagreement, to rise up against someone for the purpose of contention or altercation, describes a situation in which the wife is far from being a partner and companion to the husband, disloyal, rebellion, desertion, acting badly, acting with hate, evil companion to him; the Quran deals with a crisis in which the wife has compromised the very security of a family and it's structure) -
(1) talk to them persuasively (admonish)
(2) separate beds (cooling off period which allows both separately to reflect on the problem at hand, during which time both are expected to reform themselves and seek reconciliation, also to calm himself down and control his anger; the time elapsed during these two steps cools tempers and the urge to resort to violence is diminished)
(3) and "kiss and make up" (analogy) - go to bed with them when they are willing; adribuhunna can equally mean "go on strike/protest, step back, moving away from, avoid, shun, to go away, further separation", "go along with them", "deep searching for a solution", remarkably even "have consensual intercourse"
Divine wisdom is in the Quran (Bible has God's words twisted by 😈). Man is still team lead (with position of authority comes greater responsibility to provide for and protect household), because both have distinct roles that form a team - submit to leadership authority only if it's in accordance to God ie. Do not submit to tyrannical authority. If the husband abuses the children, is it still right for the wife to 'submit to husband' as per the Christian teaching, therefore allowing the children to be continually abused by the husband? In fact, Quran advises husband and wife to consult on differences, collaborative approach to decision making, and it starts between spouses 2:233. Watch Ertugul on Netflix it portrays this Islamic principle IRL
Far from promoting domestic abuse, that Quran verse describes an anger management process that endeavors to prevent domestic abuse before it happens. The verse imposes a restriction on men rather than providing them with permission to hit their wives. Here in NZ, there are laws that punish domestic violence but this only comes after the fact and strict laws have not curbed the rate of domestic abuse which remains rampant. Instead of dealing with the matter of domestic abuse after the fact, the wisdom of God in Quran is to address the anger that leads men to abuse their wives. AND that Quran verse also prescribes a process towards reconciliation between spouses!
The verse states that it is a man's responsibility and obligation to provide for and protect the family and thus appoints him the guardian of his wife and family. This authority implies that the man must be noble, as guardian must behave in a manner that is worthy of this responsibility. This authority does not give any man the right to resort to violence to resolve family disputes. So the man's responsibilities as a guardian do not give him licence to mistreat his wife. By guarding, loving and providing for his wife, he can earn her love affection and willingness to follow his lead (the saying:respect has to be earned). That is what it means when the verse tells the wife to be obedient and protect her husband by co-operating with and listening to him in all good things (when it's in line with obeying God's commandments).
Like at work you obey your boss's orders. but if your boss orders you to do something illegal/unethical you don't just obey blindly. Same concept.
Arabic that was chosen by God to reveal his divine Words is an exceptionally rich language (linguistics experts will attest to its difference with other kinds of languages) - each word has multiple meanings applicable to the context (as demonstrated earlier). God gives us free will in how we understand the Words. I guess that's how God separates the Good ppl from them Evil ones! Like the so called wife beating verse for example. If a man truly loves his wife he would not think that God would command him to beat his wife!
thank you jazakAllahukhayr for this analysis zahara
Jazakallah for the clear and concise explanation!
So you translated the verse from 'to strike' to 'kiss and make up'? The previous recommendation was already to that effect, it wouldn't make sense the third, escalated, point would be the the exact same, 'to step back', as the second lesser point.
Also, if the interpretation of God's words can vary so wildly from 'to beat your wife', which was agreed upon for over a thousand years, to 'kiss and make up' then what use is the Quran? We're only retroactively changing the interpretation to accommodate our updated belief and morality systems. The purpose of the Quran, which was to guide our behaviour, is now void in that context if there are unlimited translation/interpretation possibilities and we just pick and choose according to our preferences at the time.
Jazakallah
Thank you Sheikh for making this verse clear for Muslim and non Muslim alike! Allah's words have been distorted as you said by people who don't have master of the language!! May Allah bless you 🙏🙏

The major problem is not only with the ill knowledge of the word “daraba” in Quranic Arabic but also with lots of modern day scholars who say that the meaning of it is physical hitting.
Beautiful speech
Salaaam salaam, does anyone know which series this bit was sourced from? Thank you sister n brothers!
honestly the issues come from favoring interpretation tied to preislamic cultural norms of the arabs.
i call for my fellow muslims to implement a three basic category system of soft, medium, and hard interpretation of words and verses in the quran. so often we oversimplify the meaning we derive from the quran that it gets misconstrude by translators or becomes a means for shouting takfir to those whom interpret it differently. an example of the threefold system of soft, medium, and hard to this verse would be that the lightest form is daraba meaning being arrogant towards them or what we would coloqually call, roasting them. the mild form of daraba could be interpreted as a firm tap, and the hard form of daraba could mean a light strike. all of these forms of daraba can be found in the quran itself so to limit a multifaceted word like daraba to only mean the hard form is to limit God's message that is preserved and completed by God himself so be careful.
14'04 : some men become pharao with her spouse : they try to be equal of God in Jabarout (dominion)
pharao also called Majazi Khuda (Hindi: मजाज़ी ख़ुदा, Urdu: مجازی خدا), is a concept in South Asia that teaches that the husband is akin to a deity, being next (''equal'') to God !
we remember to muslim that nushuz targeted is to disobey to Allah = try to do Zina (or to do Zina) !!!
I struggle to reconcile the belief that the Quran is a universal book of guidance with the idea that in order to correctly understand it I am expected to learn about Arab customs and conventions in the 7th century as well as the beliefs of the Christian/Jewish people of that time. Without understanding all that I can quite easily misunderstand the universal book of guidance that is the Quran. I wish I could solve this paradox.
It is a universal message. It is the people that change it and the people themselves change. So to know the truth and the authenticity you must adhere to its true teachings. The message is universal and never changes. Alhamdulilah
Seek more knowledge. Speak to Imams. Go to mosques.
I have the same problems Perhaps it means that it applies to everyone
You don’t need knowledge of Arabic Language or the Arab customs to earn salvation. It’s as simple as believing in the one Creator, believing that Prophet Muhammad is the last Prophet, and obeying them.
You only need knowledge of the Arabic language and old customs if you want to make critical examination of what the Qur’an means. If you hear an argument from someone who tries to attack the meaning of the Qur’an without this knowledge, then you have to be willing to listen to the Arabic explanations and the context if you want an answer.
He truth to his knowledge and we need more advice
We are told that the mercy of God is greater than his rigor. If the Quran allows one to admonish or chastise one's spouse than so be it but i would think it still has to be done in the name of mercy, and not following anger or a passion, or be excessive in it's severity. As a point of comparison, one may "strike" a child but certainly not with the intention of causing harm, so i don't see why it shouldn't be the same with one's spouse.
I'd argue that striking a woman who has already been grossly disobedient and sinful would not bring about any reform in her, but rather, in most cases, make her worse. You'd literally have to beat such a person silly to make them change their ways, and then, only in appearance while she secretly held deep resentment and probably thoughts of revenge.
majority of muslim population does believe daraba to strike as in physically hit, with the clear indication of not leaving a mark or a bruise. As a moderated form of physical consequences such as we fear from Police etc. if done in the beat them up form is clear transgression universally accepted in islam. Thus there are very sensitive boundaries, similar to police's permission to use force or violence is very sensitively handled.
This verse is is specific to the disobedience of infidelity not any gross disobedience"the obedient women guard in her husbands absence what Allah has asked her to guard i.e her chastity.....and strike means 100 lashes if they find proof.Seperate beds because in that time there was no pregnancy tests.
Shaykh Akram Nadwi says that the purpose of marriage is to have children. I've never agreed with that so it is interesting to hear Shaykh Hamza Yusuf disagree with him too.

1. You: Divorce is haram? Did I say that?
2. Divorce has to be avoided! In the first instance why any one marries? I repeat: In the interest of keeping a family intact, the love between parents, children to be preserved, it has to be avoided. Unless it harms those very relationships.
3. Ingrained? Family values is important in a civilised society. You are Arab and espousing pre Islamic attitudes of harem and discarding the female at will!
4. It is not always women who are affected in divorce! In cases where the man is weak, the man is the oppressed!
5. You wrongly interpret we should fear man! We try to preserve family! Its values for a civilised society not the pre Islamic Pagan chaos, disorder and heinous attitude towards family values.

A Muslim shouldn't abuse...
Of women towards men or men towards women? Both are unfortunately commonplace.
What about the Christian rebellion on the "Muslim word" submitter, which supposedly mean muslim? To submit in ground-fighting is to supress the weaker Party (women) as in Domestic Violence like Sheikh Hamza Yousef said.

If the men are infertile then what do women do then what's her rights there?
She can get a divorce...
Or maybe adopt a child if that is really important in a marriage.
Allah knows best.
but i suspect. the simple answer is that in 90% of human society on the planet today and 100% of human society before 20th century, husbands have maintained the social order and the informal judicial system that kept society intact.
what that means is that there were no police, no judges, no courts.
if an adult man did a crime, the village as a society punished that person. if a women did a crime, the husband would punish them. and if a child did a crime the parents would cane them etc.
In the absence of modern technology, administrative abilities and free time. social order was maintained in that hierarchical fashion.
rightfully or wrongfully it was the necessary "evil" similar to allowing restricted slavery. As the alternative was worse.
If men were not allowed to carry out corporaal punishment on people under their authority, just as women aren't allowed to punish children today. society would have fallen apart. Just like children have gone wild today.
also remember islam strictly forbade hitting the face, or striking in a manner that leaves a mark on anyone. and above all islam forbade hitting anyone unjusly.
so the allowance for men to punish women JUSTLY under their authority when women have committed a social crime, is the same as how the police and state are allowed to do it today.
Men simply were the police and simply were the state, and still are in agricultural poor societies that aren't economically developed and unable to afford all the luxuries of an independent judicial system. And men in turn were held to account by those in authority over them, such as the village elders, scholars, sheikhs etc.
And for those men who unjustly beat their wives, domestic abuse etc. They will not follow these 3 steps and would go to beating them straight away anyway.
So by Allah laying down this 3 stage process , domestic abuse is reduced in agriculture economies. As this 3 stage process means anger is dissipated, and the ones who doesn't follow the 3 stage process , can easily be identified by the village and Islamic judge and divorce issued at the women's request. and then the man would be punished for domestic abuse, with a similar level of whipping equivalent to the unjust violence he inflicted on his wife.
Also i would add, islamic shariah law says that the state can lay down restrictions on people and abrograte certain Shariah laws in certain situations. Such as how Omar restricted capital punishment in the time of famine.
Similarly for those Muslims living in a developed state where there exists an independent judicial system sufficient to maintain social order. islam allows the state to force people to use the states judicial system instead of using vigilante justice. And for Muslims living in the west, you have to obey western law.
Again to reiterate, islam does not allow men to beat women unjustly if they have done nothing wrong and if they do that, the wife can demand same punishment on the husband as well as divorce.
Corporal punishment in the home of every human society has always occurred to maintain social order.
Just as if a child commits vandalism, the parent who is the authority figure over the chold will spank them. Similar if a wife commits a crime such as say gossiping, backbiting, lying, flirting, spreading fitna etc, her authority figure in such societies is the husband. Who then has the right to use similar MILD huge emphasis on mild, corporal punishment.
Again i emphasise Islam says such punishment cannot hit the face, or leave a mark, let alone scar or bleed the skin, nor cause extreme pain etc. Hitting the face especially is prohibited in islam, even in war it is prohibited against the enemy. As human dignity shall not be infringed, even on the guilty person in Islam. Human dignity is too valuable to violate ever.
Human dignity must be maintained even when ppeople are punished for their crimes. Even children. That is why islam does not allow hitting children in the face.
So again to reiterate, men were and are the unofficial social system, that kept society in order. They were the police before police existed. They were the prosecution and the defence before such job labels existed etc.
Similarly to how men fulfilled the following roles for women in society, before the state took those duties from them.
it was men and often husbands alone who became a women's firemen, a women's ambulance, a women's paramedic, a women's soldier, a women's search and rescue, a womens coast guards, a wife's body guard, a wife's attorney/solicitor, a wife's land register, the wife's enforcer of rights, the enforcer of the wife's rights (her parents father's will) etc.
before the state came along and stripped men of these duties, and it became the duty of the state. these entire state departments, entire jobs and entire careers were fulfilled by men, before they became outsourced.
it was the man and often the husband who was fulfilling these roles without any recognition by women or society.
Removing these roles from men is only possible in our modern economic system due to technology. It is not possible for 80% of the world still.
And you are seeing the fitna in 3rd world countries due to that.
Places like south America, Africa, where social order collapses due to feminism creating a vacuum. Women freemix, and adultery, prostitution, brothls, divorce, abortions, abandoned children, etc become rampant.
Why? because men are no longer allowed to maintain law and order, due to equal rights leaving a giant vacuum, which is then filled by evil men and evil women taking advantage of the rest of women in society.
So always be careful of what you wish for. The alternative often is worse of the same thing you hated.
I'm just thinking that. The striking of the wife in a mild manner. Was a much softer means to reprimand
In this time men were very harsh towards their wives

Saarim Farooqui did you fully grasp what he spoke about ?
Nah 😐
Saarim Farooqui what didn’t you understand ?
This is an interesting talk but I am confused as to why Allah, in His infinite wisdom chose the word 'darb'. Every word in the Quran is supposed to be perfect, precise and intentional so if the true meaning of the word 'darb' has been forgotten/lost and the verse has been used to justify domestic violence, why did Allah even choose the word in the first place? Arabic is an expansive language and I'm sure the creator could have chosen a different word that would have avoided all this confusion. It seems to completely undermine our faith in the Quran being the word of God.
Nobody in the history of al Islam understood that verse to hit their wife’s, END OF.
Something is happening to Hamza Yusuf’s accent :)
❤️❤️❤️
I will save you time : he never actually explains the meaning of the verse.
I generally like Sheikh Hamza Yusuf, but I somewhat agree with your comment. He does intimate the answer though in stating how the Quran uses the word 'daraba'. So I looked it up ...
While the Quran uses the word ‘daraba’ in places to mean literally to strike, it is more frequently used to mean: 'to cast', 'set forth', 'go forth', 'travel', 'put forth'. corpus.quran.com/qurandictionary.jsp?q=Drb#(4:34:29)
With these usages and meanings in mind, it seems clear that the Quran is instructing to send such a disobedient, out of control woman away (in separation or divorce).
Besides the fact that historically Islamic scholars do not intrepret this verse to mean giving license to beat, it doesn't even make practical sense in the context of the verse to think that beating such a terrible wife would be effective. Striking a woman who has already been grossly disobedient and sinful would not bring about any reform in her, but rather, in most cases, make her worse. You'd literally have to beat such a person silly to make them change their ways, and then, only in appearance while she secretly held deep resentment and probably thoughts of revenge.
The Prophet peace and blessings upon him didn't say the "real" jihad is supporting your family. He said supporting your family is a jihad. Which doesn't mean the same. Armed jihad is just as real and the primary meaning of jihad. What is with this trend of downplaying armed jihad's importance nowadays.
The "real" jihad is the inward struggle. The armed jihad is classified as the "little" jihad.
15:02 'if a jew beats his wife, the statistics show that it doesn't happen very often'...... did I hear correctly, is Hamza serious here? Jews are no different than other humans... Here I am loving what Hamza says enjoying hiis speach, and then suddently he utters something so strange....what does he mean, is he believing in biased statistics? It needs explanation. I hope I misunderstood what was actually said.
Agreed - it was very strange,
Sorry I don't disagree with sheikh Hamza Yousuf as it emphasizes real life occurrences based on updated statistics... you should embrace that with the Jews as it is an achievement from them and learn how the Jews really practice such effective practices, and with being said acknowledge the wus wus-a that you're getting from shytan that prevent you from understanding a good thing.

Chill bro
Here he was bringing how unfairly we are treated ,only to degrade ISLAM,so bad things will be made so worse meaning exaggerated, amplified to humiliate the muslims ,while for other religions they use leniency, or passivity.
Its because Allah is a false god, Mohammed is a false prophet and Islam is a false religion. Imagine a god who allows for women to be beaten…doesn’t sound like his to me (sounds more like SATAN)
Cannot enjoy more of this. This lecture must be disseminated to all Muslim men and women. Especially those who want to get married.
20 years to understand Islam? God couldn't have made things clearer? It only takes 8 years to be a doctor.
For you to comment on the quran and give opinion about the quran you have to understand it first...
When God speaks, man does not understand. God's ontological status is so radically different from that of man that his "words" cannot be readily understood until one is close enough to him that he begins to perceive the true meaning of his speech, and that could very well happen over the course of a lifetime.
With that said, there is also a literal meaning to the words of the sacred text that has been studied and analyzed by scholars for centuries, which is also the basis for traditional Islamic jurisprudence, and while interpretations vary, there is a general consensus there but it seems nowadays everybody wants to be their own interpreter and their own doctor of law, damn history, and damn tradition.
I agree with you somewhat. It doesn't take 20 years to understand the Quran for the most part. For the most part, you can understand the Quran with a good primer and tafseer (commentary) on the first read. However, as the Quran itself states, while the vast majority of the verses are clear and concise and are the "basis of the book", there are verses that have deep meanings that only some are blessed to truly understand. These take prayer, humility and work to understand. But there is no reason why a person shouldn't read and begin to implement the Quranic values and commands into their life. There are only a handful of things that truly confused me when I first began reading the Quran. Good commentary mostly cleared those up.
Strawman.

This is just changing the meaning of the verse because you don't like the real meaning.
To change the Quran is classed as a sin in Islam.
This is one tafsir of the many interpretations of verse, I’m probably sure none of the tafsirs would encourage beating woman. He said nothing wrong, there is a Hadith that says don’t beat the female servants of Allah, the Quran doesn’t encourage violence in any way except on the transgressors.

No it clearly says in plain language to beat your wife if she disobeys you.
DarkMatter1919 No nothing about disobeying the husband is mentioned. Are you even Muslim?
@@DarkMatter1919 what's wrong with that mate? Islam is patriarchal, and the woman should submit to the husband - that's the standard. If she does not - and rebels against him instead, then she deviates from the established order/standard, so she should bear the consequences. The same goes for the husband. If he can't provide for the family, he is not able to preserve the marriage. And he should bear the consequences of divorce. And so on.

What you say is blatantly wrong.
It clearly says it in Quran verse 4:34.
BS!
