Edited sentence: In extreme cases, a muslim family might commit a Honor Killing.In islam, it is regarded as the literal word of Allah that "Men are superior to women" (Quran 34:4).It is not clear under what circumstances a honor killing is permitted in islam, however the islamic prophet did indeed commit honor killings, one woman was killed for merely disagreeing with him : Asma_Bint_Marwan.Sometimes, a junior member of the family, or even the son or brother of the disobedient woman, is forced to commit the act, because western law systems dictate very limited punishment for juvenile offenders.There is no agreement on what the punishment is for a woman that does not accept the superiority of men in islam, although inprisonment and beatings are sanctified by Allah (Quran 4:34)
