'Men are the Qawwamoon [Protectors and Maintainers]
of women ...'' [al-Qur'an 4 : 34].

Domestic abuse has sadly reached alarming levels and threatens to destroy the very fabric of society. As part of that society, it is our collective and individual responsibility to educate ourselves about the causes and effects of this epidemic so that we can all work to prevent it happening while having the understanding to support those that are directly affected.
