Okay psyche, thanks for the post, I must have misunderstood.
But if it was for that specific group of women the prophet (pbuh) was dealing with at that time, why did they make it a general rule for all the muslim women? Is it because the majority of muslim women are like that or is it because majority of arab women are like that?
And no, I was not speaking out of feminist approach. I have myself found arab women of the desert generally more prone to lies, deception, hyppcricy & bad attitude. Majority of them, not all as in 100%.
