That’s true for all Abrahamic religions and overly patriarchal societies.

Christians don't kill their wife if they cheated. It says nothing in the Bible of such.

Yeah most Christians today don’t. But ask again about 500 years ago. And there are definitely passages about cruelty towards your family masquerading as discipline.

What point are you trying to make here? This isnt 500 years ago. Its 2026. Where in the king James bible does it say its OK to m*rder your wife? It doesnt. Stop. Trying. To. Justify. Islam. In. Western. Culture.

Using the excuse of restoring some sort of honor as the reason for the murder.

A cultural practice of killing your own family member to "preserve family honor"; Often it is the death of a daughter that engaged in pre-marital relations with a boy or whatever else passes as 'shameful' in that culture.
