Palestinian Muslim leader, Sameeh Hajaj, goes on TV to guide men Regarding their right to beat their wives (each man can hold up to 4 wives). He gives information on beating and bathroom-detention.
He warns Palestinian men not to hit in areas that leave marks like the face to avoid making the woman "ugly", he says man is only allowed to hit her limbs and back where other people will not see the signs of bleeding but "No more than 10 blows at a time".
This imam gives a glimpse into the lives of women all over the Arab-Muslim world where Sharia is practiced.
Women are considered Second-class citizens in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan etc.
In most Islamic countries there are no laws protecting women's rights, or prohibiting child marriage.
