Re: Muslim attitudes towards rape [split: Muslim Women Gang Raped.. ]
Better then twisted Islamic teachings in a modern world.
Freedom for women
Independence for women
Rights for children
No marriage of children to old men
Human rights
Democracy.
Not anti islam but pro human. and if in your eyes i am not muslim enough well its because I got an education not submissive in doctrination.
Human rights are superior to any religious law.
Well , if you see the corruption that exists within islamic society perhaps its time to change how islam is practiced instead of defending islam. as the root problems are because of islamics continuing such practices as the will of Allah.
I am doing my bit. I am out there ruffling feathers, promoting Ali, Manji, Taslim, etc etc . Just a humble , university educated modern islamic female promoting rights for women and children.
Amused by your post that you still have not understood that Islamic rules and laws ARE there to protect humanity.
When Islam came, the liitle girls were stopped from buried alive!
When islam came women were given the knowledge of modesty instead of dancing nude in Kaaba.
When islam came, it made women like Fatima (RAA) and Ayesha (RAA) etc. respectable women of society who later taught others and answered questions.
When Islam came into many areas of world, it abolishes inhuman treatments against women by locals and when Islamic people wanted to leave the area, they were begged by local good men and women to stay.
Islam gave freedom to men and women long before current days world provided. Only few years ago women got the voting right in western world while the prophet (SAW) and his followers (Umer RAA) created and amended rules and laws based on the advice their women gave!
Women have been burned and raped in the name of religion other than Islam.
If you find any submissive woman in uneducated area then its not the fault of Islam. Islam condemns women oppression. It gives woman the right to choose her life partner and any marriage without her consent is not a marriage. Now do not try to bring age in to consenting you already have been given answer for that.
The prophet SAW himself has dissolved the marriage of a woman who complained that her marriage was against her will and she did not like her partner.
Let me tell you, there are countless marriages in islamic and non-islamic societies which are based on stronger reasons than liking the partner (lust/love). Education, money, power, social equality and religious reasons are very common reasons for marriage around the world and are well accepted even by you! (I never saw any post from you against these reasons for marriage)
So called 'islamic countries' you keep giving examples have nothing to do with Islam. Islam is now a days present among the human beings and not as the law of a country.
Lastly, Your emotional ranting has no value whatsoever infront of centuries of goodness Islam brought to mankind.
