Women in Islam (Masha'allah)

That's True. Now a days in the gulf states very rarely they care about the principles and teaching in practical life and ignore many aspects and practices as prescribed in the book. The prime factor is the riches and ignorance to convey the teachings properly o the following generation. The Basic Concept of islam and the practice is just reduced speeches without practice. allah has already Mentioned in Quran that"when the man is bestowed with riches he forgets God and when he is in despair and misery then turns to God" "Man is a strange creature: when We bestow Our favors on man, he turns his back and drifts off to one side (instead of coming to Us) and whenever evil touches him, he gives himself up to despair.[Chapter17:83]

looking at the Qur’an text the potential is there for Muslims to achieve equality, peace and harmony within marriage and between man and woman, based on mutual respect, equality, love and understanding. The harsh truth and reality is, real-life in Islamic countries is far from the teachings of Quran, as is the case with most ideologies.

Except for verse 34 where it says that women have to be "devoutly obedient" to their husbands. And then it continues with what a man should do to his wife is she is not "devoutly obedient"! Men's rights, not women's rights!

Sura Nisa (Holy Quran - Chapter #4)is mostly all about woman's rights.

If read carefully one will find all answers to his doubts regarding the place of woman in Islam.

Sura An Nisa says something else about the "rights" of women! But, of course, my translation is bad.

C'mon the shaik didn't mean to indicate the woman as candy or Queen.

It could be simple explanation for the ignorant to make them understand.

Can any one describe the AIR?

Woman are given the best ever rights in Islam any other religion could give.

It seems bad to liberals because it prohibits the exposure to opposite gender to avoid adultry and sins.

khadijamathew, it sounds nice, but I'm allergic to this "our women" thing, is there anything about "our men"?

And the body cover up is not confined to Muslims, this notion makes it sound as though all Non-Muslim women are naked people walking down the street with nothing but a lipstick on, which is unfair.

Last comment, I don't like to be thrown on the floor even for a demo purposes. I'd certainly slap OUR MEN for just thinking about it...:)

All the best dear sis. I admire your conviction for yourself.

Where the hell did you here that the Queen can't shake hands?

Anybody can shake the Queen's hand.

And women are not candy. We are thinking human beings with thoughts and feelings of our own. Not pieces of f-ing candy. Pathetic.

Syrian man what's the rant for? Perhaps you should go comment on the Arabic forums cuz can't make shate of wot u said above.

and you still believe it ..we destroy the world .. we are really great

we are arab discover all your relegous , in the world jewesh,christian,islam all come from here and that was our big joke .. :P

This was my first post..sorry for using the wrong forum..sorry mariecor..sorry to all..mods please delete this or move to appropriate forum..I apologize to all those who were hurt..because this is what my religion teaches me..to love all and forgive all..sorry for all the toes I steppped on..my intention was to make an analogy to how women are seen in Islam in one man's opinion..not to show down others..

again dealing with lady same like candy.. not human !!

honor of the ladies not in clothes only but in the mind as well,

if you like to do one princepl do it .. but dont enforce other to do same like or copy you .. you are not always correct !! even your princeples

if that is not correct ask your god to let baby girl come with hijab if your god like that ..

nishantvshah,

Tolerance is the attitude that should govern the dealings of all people with one another. Religious tolerance is an essential principle of Islam and Muslims are ordered to have good relations with people of all religions and be kind and courteous to everyone. Muslims are ordered by the Qur’an to uphold their promises and agreements with non-Muslims and not betray or transgress against them. The lives, families, properties and honor of non-Muslims must be protected under any government that claims to apply Islamic law. Non-Muslims are also guaranteed the right and freedom to practice their own religions in an Islamic state.Thus, it is not permissible under any circumstance for Muslims to mistreat a non-Muslim who has not committed any aggression against them; they are not allowed to harm, threaten or terrorize him, steal his wealth, cheat him or deprive him of his rights. It is obligatory upon Muslims as well to honor whatever lawful treaties and agreements are made with non-Muslim parties.

So how can you say that we treat non-muslim women not as humans?Any muslim who does so will be punished in Islam!

it is a post, so i have the right to comment. if there is no post such this, will i write the same comment as i did? why should i apologise? i didnt tell bad things nor attack your religion. read all my comments again.

nishantvshah. Perhaps you haven't heard of all the African/polish underage sex slaves in Scandinavian countries and Western Europe : P . Happens everywhere dude even in Aussie!

Its you the first who commented this post.If i am your side i would rather apologize to the public forum for your reaction of making the post as a joke.

"Lesson of a day before you post something or comment to any forum be sure that you really understand it,not just by typing and posting quickly, because there are issues that are sensitive to others maybe not for you".Just a words from your fellow kabayan...

i never said i don't agree with the points above. I'm simply asking the sheikh a question based on the number of news events we see.

do you not see the number of abuses being reported from different countries, right from a victim of rape getting jailed to employers abusing their employees.

my question is very simple. Its great you treat Ur women as queens, but why not treat other women (non Muslims) as humans atleast.

kamranhussainka, i didnt say that Islamic Religion is teaching you the bad ways...nor our religion does. Seems you didnt get the point in the question of nishantvshah.

to close this issue, let's not talk about religion in this public forum...and please, refrain from posting such in here to avoid any religion bashing.

Before Ask your question can you please tell me that who treat your (wife, sisiter, daughter, mother, freind or any other female relative) as not a human...? And why do you like that your women to shake hand with every one...? U feeel proud of that..?

Religion teaches how to take care & there is no force in Islam if any body doing this its his own job & he is not aware of Islam teachings

that is a very good question nishantvshah!

Lol. I feel sad for the rest of the women who are desperate to get covered!!

Thank you for sharing Kadeijha. It was informative,(: However there is already a religious forum specially set up for posts like this one so think this post 'd do much better on there.

And kindly refrain from posting any more religious threads on here in future.

Thank you.

I would like to ask a question to the same sheikh.

When you treat your own women like queens, why do you not treat other women even as humans.

Only religion to take care a woman? Is this a joke again?

Well Said sis. Kadhija.

One and only religion which takes care of woman's.

Jokers take it as a joke as for them woman means a COMODITY - Use and throw!

Do you consider this post as a joke?sorry to say that people who will read your comment think of you something because its just you who comment that way...
