본문내용
Honor punishment is one of Arabic bad custom, and Islam doesn't concede it as proper punishment. Actually honor homicide is one of old custom of Arab before Islam.
Due to the poor weather and natural environment, Arabian used to live a nomadic life which needs manpower with high level of loyalty. Therefore, honor of a tribe represented superiority of a tribe, and the honor came from each individuals' morality. So 'honor punishment' originated from the need of recovery of a tribe's honor. The number of man was very important because they had to cross desserts riding camels and sometimes they had to cross another tribe's territory. In Arab society, woman started to be thought as property rather than a human being like man.
