As was pointed out earlier, so called "honour killings" are not allowed in Islam. If you read the thread you would know this, so why post about it again?

i never said anything about Islam Son, i said about those who claim to be devout religious nuts, then go and kill family member, but yes, this one case i read about was an Islam family. and to be fair it is mostly Islam, Muslim and Arab states where this happens. i dont remember reding of too many irish catholic Honour killings, do you?

The point is why are you posting it here to an old thread? Are you expecting someone to answer you and explain why it is justified? If so you are likely to be disappointed, and you would know this by reading the thread.

If it is a rhetorical question, then it isn't adding any value to the thread by bumping.

Your last comment is just bordering on trolling. So please remain within the subject matter of the thread.

Sorry, I didnt realise that just because a thread was old i could not post on it. maybe that should be said on the search bar.

And it is relevent to the topic, it is about honour killings. i wanted to find out what people think of it, how people who claim to follow thier VARIOUS religions can justify it. its the same with chatolics and murder by the way. i dont know how anyone who says they follow the way of a god can then kill someone, but i find that the honour killing system does mainly come from the outlined backgrounds. it has also been proven in many countries that the act of honour killing may be illegal, but the accused has actually got the law on thier side. correct me if i am wrong?

Posting without adding value to the thread is normally bad etiquette.

Those questions have already been answered, but if you are looking for someone to justify it they may eventually (if they exist here) speak up. There is no need to keep bumping.

i dont know what value you can add to it really, i was more askngi the question of how it happens, and mainly in cultures where the general populous are very religious. and no, i dont think the question of why the victim is killed for the family honour has been answered either. you seem very annoyed that i ask these questions. i dont know why, i am simply asking questions on articles i have read, is that not the point of boards?

I am not annoyed with the question. If I was I would have said something sooner when you first posted, and then continued to ask the same question over and over.

i would just love to know how many of the people who claim to be devout religious people can justify this, culture or not.

Answered already, in relation to Islam. The forum is about ISLAM. If you want an answer from another religion another forum that covers that religion might help or you might get lucky with an answer here.

Your further comments seem to be less about Islam and more to know about Honor killings as they relate to other countries. Also I found the comment "i dont remember reding of too many irish catholic Honour killings, " somewhat trolling.

So in summary.. You have asked your question, lets see who answers and keep the subject matter at least relevant to the forum/thread.
