I’m assuming we have a limited amount of time and energy to devote to such activities…besides…one would provoke controversy while the other would not.

So, you don’t have any objection per se. you just don’t think this is the right time to push this issue. Right?

Equal Rights? What Imaamat has to do with rights? Imamat is a duty, and when duty is to be performed, there is an eligibility criteria. Even in a casual gathering of men only, when its time for Salaat, you dont pick anyone randomly from that crowd, just because of “equal rights”. You look for someone older, or someone with beard and/or someone who appears like a practicing Muslim from his attire and looks.

Should women be automatically excluded from this duty?

Equal rights?

No, probably not. At another form, I once proposed that men and women lead congregational prayer in segregation…each to their own. That was immediately dismissed by the “progressives” I was conversing with as side-stepping the issue, though equality would be maintained.

They can lead kids and other women if no Muslim man is available.

Cause women can’t grow proper beards.

Good to see you back …

The whole point is to eliminate the barriers/taboos between the genders then? Sheesh …

Besides you notice how it says Eid prayer, but she prayed something more like a Jumma - Eid has 6 extra takbeers and a khutbah after the salah.
