Islam
1.The Muslim woman has the same right as the Muslim man in all matters including divorce.
-
She enjoys property and inheritance rights. (Which other religion grants women these rights?). She can also conduct her own separate business.
-
She can marry any Muslim of her choice. If her parents choose a partner for her, her consent must be taken. She has the right to reject also
-
The dowry in Islam is a gift from a husband to his wife (not the other way around as is practiced by some ignorant people).
-
A Muslim widow is encouraged to remarry, and her remarriage is the responsibility of the Muslim society.
6.Mixed marriage is encouraged and is a means to prevent racism creeping in society.
- A Muslim mother is given the highest form of respect.
Hinduism
-
The Hindu Woman has no right to divorce her husband.
-
She has no property or inheritance rights.
-
Choice of partner is limited because she can only marry within her own caste; moreover her horoscope must match that of the intending bridegroom/family.
-
The family of the girl has to offer an enormous dowry to the bride groom and family.
-
If her husband dies she should commit Sati (being cremated with her dead husband). Since today’s law forbids Sati, society mainly punishes her in other “holy” ways (see below).
-
She cannot remarry.
-
The widow is considered to be a curse and must not be seen in public. She cannot wear jewelry or colourful clothes. (She should not even take part in her children’s marriage!)
What right do the Hindus have to criticize the Muslims? Have you ever heard of a Muslim burning his wife? In India women die daily of dowry deaths, Hindu women being burnt by the husband or in-laws. It is a fact that upper caste Hindus ill-treat their women. The Brahmins are trying to claim that Muslims do not give freedom to their women. I ask you again. “Do the Hindus respect their women?” You be the judge!
