I was just giving a reason why people are tying the two together. I wouldn't blame this solely on Islam. Like I mentioned, I don't think this story happens if she is teaching him a nursery rhyme. However, she would almost certainly have been abusive, but I don't think this little boy dies if you take religious text out of this unfortunate news story.

It's just an opinion, and not necessarily a correct one, but the importance of this text to the mother obviously increased her anxiety around it.

There are many issues with with to slam Islam/Abrahamic faiths on, and I don't think this is the main one, but I do sincerely think that if the text was changed, we wouldn't even be aware of this abusive mother.
