Protecting Women by Recommending Beatings

Who is the Council of Islamic Ideology in Pakistan? It's a decades old organization "that advises the government on religious aspects of the law and society" with recommendations that are not necessarily law ... but may lead to them. Recently, this council came up with the bright idea to protect women by allowing husbands to lightly beat them. Their chairman says, "If you want her to mend her ways, you should first advise her .... If she refuses, stop talking to her ... stop sharing a bed with her, and if things do not change, get a bit strict." The council's report has yet to actually make it forward for validation into Pakistani law, but includes such nuggets as "A husband should be allowed to lightly beat his wife if she defies his commands and refuses to dress up as per his desires; turns down demand of intercourse without any religious excuse or does not take bath after intercourse or menstrual periods."
