1. Introduction
Honor killing is a custom of killing one of the family members because he or she dishonors their family. The custom which kills the women who lost her virgin is going on in Jordan, Egypt and Yemen- mostly in the Muslim region. Honor killing means, one of the family members murders the woman who lost her virgin by several reasons such as adultery losing virgin and so on.
It has been happening in the Muslim region publicly because the member who murdered the woman is condemned to a light penalty. That kind of honor killing does not exist only in the Middle-East. There’s also a custom similar with honor killing in China and Korea. It has existed until right before modern times.

However, it was the reporter, Rana Husseini, at the Jordan Times who internationally publicized the problem of honor killing to the world for the first time. She has ever since mainly covered the cases of honor killing and soon it gained international attention. Moreover, both national and international human rights organization gathered to make an effort against honor killing as well. Ever since that time, even if honor killing is still carried out in Islamic society, there has been a tremendous effort to change the situation and in fact some progresses on both national and international level were made.
