Danish Imam: “You Can Beat Them if They Don’t Pray When They Are Ten Years Old”
Posted on March 3, 2016 by Baron Bodissey
A few days ago we posted a hidden-camera video aired by TV2 in Denmark. It featured an imam at the Grimhøj Mosque who justified various acts of violence — including the death penalty for apostasy — based on Koranic instructions.
Below is another video in the series featuring Imam Abu Bilal Ismail. In this episode the Indiscreet Imam explains the requirements for and limits on beating children, both for the sake of their education and to follow the precepts of Islamic law.

Transcript:
00:02 Teach your children to “salah” (pray).
00:06 It is obligatory when they are seven years old.
00:09 And you can beat them if they don’t pray when they are ten years old.
00:12 How do you beat children when they are ten years old and don’t pray?
00:15 It is not permitted to smack them or smash them into the wall —
00:21 or break their bones.
00:23 It is also not OK to take a knife and kill them or chop them.
00:27 You hit them as a part of their upbringing and learning.
00:32 Not as violence.
00:35 You are not allowed to hit them in the face and sensitive areas.
00:38 You can for example hit them on the shoulder —
00:42 in such a way that the child can feel that he has done something wrong.
00:46 If you are hit as a part of child-rearing when you are small —
00:50 then you KNOW why you have received those blows.
00:54 You will remember it in your adult life, and that is what is important.
