The fault of Islamists in this it that they provide more ways to afront family and tribal honor (not wearing a hijab, showing your hair, etc.) and look the other way, or in some cases encourage it.
Honor killings were rampant in the subcontinent in pre Islamic times during Alexander’s conquest, and the Islamists take what was once a limited tribal more, extend it’s evil, and make it their own.
