Should we tolerate this in the UK?

To my knowledge rape statistics actually make Britain one of the most dangerous countries on earth to be a woman.

So I think people should be careful about throwing challenges like this out when the data suggests its actually safer to live in Afghanistan or Pakistan than the UK. I would move myself and my daughters to either of those countries tomorrow if I could.

Nor me.

Great idea on moving yourself and your daughters to Afghanistan. You might apply a little bit of your research rigour to understanding, for example, why rape stats there might not be entirely accurate. Or how educational and job opportunities for women compare to the shithole the UK is.

What are you about?
Are you aware that definition of rape, rates of reporting are vastly different?
Move then. I'll pay for your one way flight.

According to your link there Pakistan is lower than Germany which I would assume is lower than the UK, so yes thank you for proving my point. My children and I would be safer growing up in Mirpur v Sunderland.

If you read the 'blurb' and have a think, you might understand that reporting and prosecuting is different in many countries. Some places feel it's ok to rape in marriage and others such as the UK treat rape in marriage as against the law. Pakistan have stern punishments for rape. Whether a woman might get listened to and the man prosecuted is another matter.

Okay. I've been patient with you but it now seems like you are borderline personally attacking me now and I very much do not care for the escalation of your tone. Fair warning.

Unfortunately MN has rules against certain types of "hunting" which means I can't openly pass judgment on what I think motivates your claim here.

I thought we'd moved on from trying to discredit whole communities by rooting out and highlighting the actions of an individual and pretending its the norm rather than the exception.
I thought we'd moved on from the racism that motivates it and the ignorance that accepts it without a modicum of critical thinking.
Looks like I was wrong too.

There is a massive difference between painting a whole community with the same brush based on the behavior of individuals and calling out specific, documented behavior of certain religious authorities and institutions.

There is also a massive difference between calling out the behaviour of one man who belongs to a community (which I whole heartedly do, he's a disgrace) and extrapolating from that that he is a typical representative of his community. Which he is not.
If this was what 'Imans say' rather than OP luckily happening upon an extremist to use to further their agenda, then do you really think this is the first we'd have heard of it?
There are people who consider it their primary purpose to dig up dirt to discredit Muslims. If this was typical Iman teaching, we'd have known about it with multiple examples.

It’s not just one man though, the article is talking about several:

This newspaper’s investigation paints a depressing picture of Britain in 2026, as scores more imams proudly display their archaic prejudices in sermons posted online.
One denounced women who ‘leave the house’ wearing perfume as ‘fornicators’, while in another video, Abu Sa’ad Muhammad, who preaches at the same mosque as Munye, said the ‘unfortunate reality of this country’ meant that wives had been turned against husbands, and that wives ‘know if you slap them once, they will call the police’.
Meanwhile, Mahamed AbdurRazaq, from the An-Noor Masjid and Community Centre in Birmingham, advises ‘admonishing’ wives in the first instance for refusing sex. If this fails, he adds, ‘then he’s allowed to hit her, a hitting that does not bruise and that does not break bones’.

I’m an immigrant myself, and if men from my own community took to a public platform to actively condone domestic violence against women, worrying about whether everyone was being painted with the same brush would be the absolute least of my concerns.

You don't have to choose which to be worried about. You can be worried about men advocating for the control and abuse of women AND be worried about the harm done to the majority of the Muslim community who don't advocate for these things, when it's implied the worst examples represent them all.
That's where I'm at. Worried about both. The witch hunt against Muslims is getting out of hand now. I'm sick and tired of it and worried for my Muslim friends. Ordinary, decent people who don't deserve this.
