Another high profile case of a elderly Pakistani immigrant couple (in their 50s) in the UK allegedly murdering their teenage daughter because she would not marry a cousin in Pakistan and she had male friends in school.

Is this Islamic? What is the Islamic response in these type of situations if the child will not listen, should the parents just dis-own them? Or is it better to continue to have a close friendship with the child hoping that one day no matter what they may get through to the child? Should the parents change their attitude and become more accepting?

Of course it's not Islamic. Anyone can't act as a vigilante enforcing sharia by own hands without the mandate by the government. It's tribal in nature rather than Islamic.

Allah Knows Best.
