Here we see there has been a consensus for centuries amongst Muslim scholar on the prohibition of honor killing. Not only this, we also see honor killings are not specific to Arabia and Muslims.
Along with quips about camels and hummus, 'honor killing' is
among the first phrases that average folk in the West associate with Islam. ...Violence
committed against women for perceived compromises of family honor is a product
of patriarchal societies suffering from economic underdevelopment. The
phenomenon is found across religions and from Brazil
to India
Questions about honor killings have regularly found their
way into the inboxes of leading muftis like Yusuf Qaradawi or the late Lebanese
Shiite scholar Muhammad Husayn Fadlallah. Their responses reflect a rare
consensus. No Muslim scholar of any note, either medieval or modern, has
sanctioned a man killing his wife or sister for tarnishing her or the family's
honor. 'Misquoting Muhammad', Jonathan A.C Brown, Kindle p179
