I would say no violence, especially domestic violence is okay and there are several mainstream scholars who condemn domestic abuse
There's a lot of disgusting stuff in the Quran but it doesn't mean every single word is followed by every Muslim.

Erm, ok, seeing as I have absolutely no interest in Islam, or any other religion, as I don’t believe in all this god bollocks, and am not claiming to know anything about it, what point are you trying today make exactly?!?!?
He said the attack wasn’t based on religion but it was. When evidence was shown he then denied saying it in the first place, which was bizarre as his post is still on the first page.
