I'm being facetious, but aren't you being simplistic on how this scenario would play out in an Islam marriage?

Seriously what would a Muslim man do if his wife tried to pull that off?

No validation needed. Just showing the other side. Mormons think it would be so awful to have an inactive spouse. I think it would be terrible to be in the shoes of the unbelieving spouse in my hypothetical.

I don't think there's a bishop in the church that would deny a woman a temple recommend for not paying tithing on her husband's income who didn't allow it.

Would seem strange to me if a woman in that situation declared that she wasn't a full tithe payer.

Nope. In fact, the church does NOT consider it community property in most cases. I know of a situation where a husband was an excommunicated member and thus could not pay tithing. The wife wanted to pay it in her name but the church said no since it was from his job (she was a homemaker).

muslim men should marry muslim women ,so if a muslim woman is facing a need in her soul and is seeking for truth in other religions ,then its fine..she could have it ..but some schalors believe that muslim men couldnot continue their marriage with a non-muslim woman. so no cutting head off ,sorry to disappoint you.

One more way the LDS Church subordinates women. It doesn't believe in community property. Nice.

I am certain it has nothing to do with gender. If the roles were reversed and the wife was the one excommunicated, they would not accept tithing on her earnings either.

So then why the self-righteousness about islam marriage being more permanent?

I assume this is supposed to be a joke? If so, ha ha. If not, you're missing the point badly.
