A
25-year-old housewife, Maryam Abdullahi, has dragged her husband to a Sharia
Court ll, seating in Magajin Gari, Kaduna state, for slapping her in the
presence of their children.
Maryam,
who lives in Hayin Malam Bello, Kaduna State, alleged that her husband slapped
her because of a little misunderstanding they had.
“I
went home to visit my parents, whose house is not far from where we reside.
When I came back, he did not listen to my explanations on why I went out to
visit them.
”He
slapped me on my right cheek and it got swollen,” Maryam said.
The
defendant, Ismail Abdullahi, 45, a bricklayer, admitted to slapping his wife.
“She
always goes out leaving the children at home without my consent. I am pleading
with the court to be lenient on me, I will never beat her again. I love my
wife, Ismail said.”
The
father of the complainant, Malam Muhammad Lawal, prayed to the court to warn
the defendant to stop beating his daughter.
The
Judge, Musa Sa’ad-Goma, ordered the defendant to beg for his wife’s forgiveness
in court.
Sa’ad-Goma
warned him never to hit or slap his wife again no matter the height of
disagreement they have.
The
judge also ordered the defendant to write an undertaking while his brother will
be a witness.
