Women in Islam
Khalil Fariel
It is no secret that child-sexual abuse has serious consequences on its victims, and among Muslims and non-Muslims alike, it is no longer a secret that the Qur'an explicitly condones pedophilia. Of course, for Muslims to finally acknowledge the harmful effects of abuse on a child, it becomes necessary for us to expose those effects through authentic Islamic sources. That is why we...
MSNBC.com has posted a special report "Behind the Veil: Will election help women in Afghanistan." This report exposes the appalling status of women in that impoverished Islamic nation, touching upon the recently passed law allowing Shi'ite Muslim men to starve their wife-slaves if the women do not let them rape them.
The report also highlights the plight of women—and their children—who have been...
A New York Time op-ed piece by Egyptian journalist Mona Eltahaway demonstrates just how "great" Islam is for women. Pointing out that 164 women in Muslim countries were sentenced in the past month (7/09) to the cruel punishment of flogging, for mostly inane and unfair "offenses," Eltahaway sensibly asks, where is the outrage?
The fact is that Islam gets a pass because it is a "religion," it has...

“A Girl came out of man’s Rib. Not from his Feet to be walked on, nor from his head to be superior over, but from his side to be equal, under the arm to be protected and next to the heart to be loved.”
The above quote is really so refreshing, it really shows how to care and value the women.
In this article I will restrict myself to the above mentioned topic. Since my...

While growing up as a young boy, I was told (as do all Muslims) of how horribly the kafirs (idol-worshipper) of Mecca persecuted our beloved Prophet and his disciples. As an example, Abu Shujaah, an Islamic propagandist, writes of the persecution suffered by Muhammad at Mecca: "You’re dealing with a dictatorial society. Muhammad (saw) and the followers of Islam were shunned, closed off, hounded...

Muhammad was the kindest man who ever lived, according to Muslims. He was filled with love and compassion for all living things. In fact, he was the only perfect human being who ever lived, according to Muslims. If you want to lead a perfect life, you just have to look at Muhammad and do what he did.
I’m no Muslim, but I’ve always yearned to be perfect, so I decided to get myself...

Saudi Arabia Radicalising Muslims in America
By: Margaret Calhoun Hemenway
Islamic groups in the U.S. are actively trying to discourage use of descriptive terms like "Jihadi" to describe an Islamic terrorist and warn Americans against "Islamophobia" should they use the "wrong" words to talk about Islam or Muslim terrorists. Yet Americans have already succumbed to using an Islamist phrase, "honor killing" to describe the brutal, pre-...

After I accepted Islam, a Muslim sister lent me a book, meant to help me deal with the struggle that I was going through with my family. The book, "You can be the Happiest Woman in the World- A Treasure Chest of Reminders" by Dr. 'A'id al-Qarni, is made up of short, meant-to-be inspirational passages that tell the Muslim woman why she should be happy, all based on Islamic texts and rules. Upon...

I am really proud of Islam. We all should be proud of Islam. It has released women into freedom! Islam is such a tolerant and merciful religion. Therefore, never forget to repeat ad nausea "Peace be upon Him" every time you mention the Prophet's name. Here is the proof:
Women who pass by a praying man annul his prayer:
Narrated 'Aisha: The things which annul prayer were...
Well, it made my day. Some woman in Norway done went and celebrated International Woman’s Day by burning her hijab. It was about time. And she made a right pretty little speech. “Let me today light a fire for freedom, for equality, for love and for peace.” It wasn’t Patrick Henry and she didn’t talk about fighting on the beaches and in the fields but the speech had spunk. Then she set fire to...
Islamic legal code, the Sharia, continues to make grounds in the West. Sharia Court, operational in Canada since 1991, was abolished in 2006 in the face of intense campaign from human rights activists. Although widely practiced by the Muslim community over the year, Sharia Court received official recognition in the U.K. for dealing with civil and some criminal cases (domestic violence etc.) in...

In 1910, International Women's Day (March 8th) was celebrated for the first time in many industrial nations. As a proposal of the Socialist International, the day demanded the right for women to vote and to hold public office, right to work, to vocational training and to an end to discrimination on the job.
Since then, the International Women's Day is commemorated and is...

Every day, women are under attack by Islamic supremacism that supports and approves of the oppression, mutilation, and murder of women. According to leaders and followers of Islamic supremacism, they have the right to commit violence against women. Islamic supremacism views oppression of women as a legitimate "right," violence against women as a legitimate "right," and murdering...

On the occasion of its launch in 2004 from near Buffalo, New York, the Muslim television channel "Bridges TV" won the enthusiastic support of Secretary of State Colin Powell's media assistant, Stuart Holliday: "I laud your expression of interest in promoting understanding and tolerance." And so it went; Bridges TV also met with euphoric media coverage, uncritical academic...
