Women can get divorced from their abusive husbands according to the Noble Quran!
In the past, I've had lengthy discussions and debates [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] with some non-Muslims on whether or not Islam allows for men to abuse their wives as they please. The following Noble Verses will shut their mouths and end this once and for all:
"If a wife fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's part, there is no blame on them if they arrange an amicable settlement between themselves; and such settlement is best; even though men's souls are swayed by greed. But if ye do good and practise self-restraint, God is well-acquainted with all that ye do. (The Noble Quran, 4:128)"
This Noble Verse by itself clearly refutes the non-Muslims' arguments! Women can get an "amicable settlement" or a divorce if they wish from the abusive husbands! The following Noble Verses are even further proofs to my point:
"...Do not retain them (i.e., your wives) to harm them...(The Noble Quran, 2:231)"
"...on the contrary live with them on a footing of kindness and equity. If ye take a dislike to them it may be that ye dislike a thing, and God brings about through it a great deal of good. (The Noble Quran, 4:19)"
"And among God's signs is this: He created for you mates from amongst yourselves (males as mates for females and vice versa) that you might find tranquillity and peace in them. And he has put love and kindness among you. Herein surely are signs for those who reflect. (The Noble Quran 30:21)"
Need we say more? Absolutely not!
Conclusion:
Women can get a divorce from abusive husbands according to the Noble Quran. Men are not allowed to beat their wives as they please. If this happens, then this would be a violation to Allah Almighty's Holy Commands in Noble Verses 4:19, 30:21 and 2:231 above. There appears to be an exception in the Noble Quran where men are allowed to physically beat disobedient wives that show ill-conduct ONLY ONCE after TWO WARNINGS. The Arabic word for beating in the Noble Verse, however, can also mean to leave or desert. I have covered this in great details at: Is wife beating allowed in Islam?
Also, Muslim men can not exploit poor, unprotected and venerable wives by abusing them and knowing that the wives can not seek divorce for financial difficulties, because according to the Noble Quran, a husband is to pay his divorced wife maintenance: "For divorced women Maintenance (should be provided) On a reasonable (scale). This is a duty On the righteous. (The Noble Quran, 2:241)"
It is not Islam's fault that some Muslim women in male-dominated societies suffer from abuse and exploitation. This is not Islam! And most certainly, these are not promoted through Allah Almighty's Holy Commands in the Noble Quran.

Did Isaiah 53 really prophesies about the crucifixion of Jesus? It supports Islam's claims about Jesus peace be upon him never died on the cross. I also addressed John 19:36-37 from the Bible and proved that Jesus never got crucified, since GOD Almighty promised that he will protect Jesus' body and not let even a single bone be broken. My question to all Christians is: How in the world is it possible for the feet to get nailed on the cross without any penetration to the bones by the nails, hence breaking part of the feet's bones?! I also added refutations to Exodus 12:46, Numbers 9:12, Zechariah 12:10 and Psalm 34:20, which supposedly prove the Christians' belief about Jesus crucifixion. I proved that this dogma has no truth what so ever and exposed the wrong Trinitarian English translation of Zechariah 12:10.
