Women are exploited and tortured….

Hi Dear Readers,
For this forum, I would like to share my life experience. Being a muslim girl, I have also married a Hindu guy. I have no words to appropriately express his kindness and humanitarian approach. My mother was victim of tremendous sorts of tortures by my father, an orthodox individual, never treated my mother as individual, very disrespectful, and negative person. My mother was deprived of two meals even. He was a person of all demerits in him, drunker, womanizer, gamblers, uneducated and whenever, my mother tried to mend his ways politely, she was beaten. One day she approached influential persons of the community for talak with him, she was blamed and humilated.
Some how she managed for some time and one day, under deep influence of alcohol, my father died. I could complete with great difficulty my 10th class with good marks and thereafter got some students to give them tuition and persuaded my further study. Some so called our relatives started pursuing my mother to get me married to an elderly muslim. I objected and did not agree. So we became the victim of muslim community in the name of religion, to exploit us. Some how I continued my efforts and gradually number of tuition needed students increased. In the meantime, I met with a Hindu Boy from a respectable family. He encouraged him to continue my study further and I passed my 12th exam as a private student and then passed out graduation. I married him and my mother did not object considering his nature and family. Now I have passed out MBA in Finance stream and working with him in a MNC. I have two loving sons and very happy with him. In laws are very cooperative and my mother also lives with me. I follow my own religion and respect Hindu religion also.
My point here is that in the name of religion women are exploited, tortured in muslim community. They are not allowed to move freely, confined to burka, even some countries, not allowed to drive vehicles, not to visit mosque, not to go for talak, irrespective of bad habits of the husband, and ABOVE ALL MALES ALLOWED TO KEEP FOUR WIVES.
What a religion based torture to the half population (women) in the muslim based community. Any muslim girl finding good hindu boy for marriage do not hesitate to marry. Hindus are more cooperative, respectful and liberal towards wives. – Chand Osmani.

Hello sisters,
Really proud of you. So intelligently and frankly speaking and sharing your life experience for the betterment of our female community, kept depressed for thousands of years.
Now a days, no comments from Aamir, Suhail or Zahid,Fatima, are seen.
Where are they? Muslim girls are now turning towards black persons too, to live blissful life.
There are many teachings in the Koran of cruelty, hate, terror and violence. Since God is All Pure Peace and Love and Goodness all these teachings are not the teachings of God but the evil teachings of ALLAH (the ANTI GOD). Muslims who believe in these teachings are rejecting God and are embracing Allah (the ANTI GOD) and committing evil.
No one reading these verses from the Qur’an can conclude that Islam is a “religion of peace.” Islam means submission, not peace. Islam is in a permanent state of war with the infidels. The Islamic “peace” will be accomplished only when all non-Muslims have been killed or pay a submission tax or have being forced to submit to Islam.
Fight in the way of Allah against those who fight against you, but begin not hostilities. Lo! Allah loveth not aggressors. 2:190
Kill disbelievers wherever you find them. If they attack you, then kill them. Such is the reward of disbelievers. (But if they desist in their unbelief, then don’t kill them.) 2:191-2
And slay them wherever you find them and drive them out of places whence they drove you out for persecution is worse then slaughter. 2.191
And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the Inviolable Place of Worship (Holy Mosque) until they first attack you there, but if they attack you (there) then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers. 2:191
But if they desist, then lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. 2:191-2
And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah. But if they desist, then let there be no hostility except against wrong-doers. 2:193
War is ordained by Allah, and all Muslims must be willing to fight, whether they like it or not. 2:216
Warfare is ordained for you, though it is hateful unto you; but it may happen that ye hate a thing which is good for you, and it may happen that ye love a thing which is bad for you. Allah knoweth, ye know not..2:216
Fight in the way of Allah, and know that Allah is Hearer, Knower. 2:244
All non-Muslims will be rejected by Allah after they die. 3:85
Disbelievers will go to Hell. 3:196
The unbelievers are your inveterate enemies. (4:101)
Seek out your enemies relentlessly.(4:104)
Rape is permitted if the victim happens to be a captive or a slave (4:24, 23:1,70:22)
And all married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess. It is a decree of Allah for you. Lawful unto you are all beyond those mentioned, so that ye seek them with your wealth in honest wedlock, not debauchery. And those of whom ye seek content (by marrying them), give unto them their portions as a duty. And there is no sin for you in what ye do by mutual agreement after the duty (hath been done). Lo! Allah is ever Knower, Wise.4:24
Save from their wives or the (slaves) that their right hands possess, for then they are not blameworthy, 23:1
Unbelievers will be tormented forever with fire. When their skin is burned off, a fresh skin will be provided. 4:56
Allah will bestow a vast reward on those who fight in religious wars. 4:74
Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward. 4:74
THEY DESIRE THAT YOU SHOULD DISBELIEVE AS THEY HAVE DISBELIEVED, SO THAT YOU MIGHT BE ALL ALIKE; THEREFORE TAKE NOT FROM AMONG THEM FRIENDS UNTIL THEY FLY THEIR HOMES IN ALLAH’S WAY; BUT IF THEY TURN BACK, THEN SEIZE THEM AND KILL THEM WHEREVER YOU FIND THEM, AND TAKE NOT FROM AMONG THEM A FRIEND OR A HELPER. (4:89)
They long that ye should disbelieve even as they disbelieve, that ye may be upon a level (with them). So choose not friends from them till they forsake their homes in the way of Allah; if they turn back (to enmity) then take them and kill them wherever ye find them, and choose no friend nor helper from among them. 4:89
If the unbelievers do not offer you peace, kill them wherever you find them. Against such you are given clear warrant. 4:91
Ye will find others who desire that they should have security from you, and security from their own folk. So often as they are returned to hostility they are plunged therein. If they keep not aloof from you nor offer you peace nor hold their hands, then take them and kill them wherever ye find them. Against such We have given you clear warrant. 4:91
Murder is only wrong if the victim is a fellow Muslim. 4:92
It is not for a believer to kill a believer unless (it be) by mistake. He who hath killed a believer by mistake must set free a believing slave, and pay the blood- money to the family of the slain, unless they remit it as a charity. If he (the victim) be of a people hostile unto you, and he is a believer, then (the penance is) to set free a believing slave. And if he cometh of a folk between whom and you there is a covenant, then the blood-money must be paid unto his folk and (also) a believing slave must be set free. And whoso hath not the wherewithal must fast two consecutive months. A penance from Allah. Allah is Knower, Wise. 4:92
Those who make war with Allah and his messenger will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land. That is how they will be treated in this world, and in the next they will have an awful doom. 5:33
The only reward of those who make war upon Allah and His messenger and strive after corruption in the land will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land. Such will be their degradation in the world, and in the Hereafter theirs will be an awful doom; 5:33
The punishment of those who pit themselves against Allah and His Messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement, except those who repent before you have them in your power (5:33-34) 5:33
Cut off the hands of thieves. It is an exemplary punishment from Allah. 5:38
As for the thief, both male and female, cut off their hands. It is the reward of their own deeds, an exemplary punishment from Allah. Allah is Mighty, Wise. 5:38
Christians will be burned in the Fire. 5:72
Muslims that make friends with disbelievers will face a doom prepared for them by Allah 5:80
Allah will torment those how deny his revelations. 6:49
Let the idolaters kill their children. It is Allah’s will. 6:137
During the Battle of Badr, something momentous happened: Allah ordered the angels to fight alongside the Muslims and to strengthen their spirits, and He told [the angels] that he would strike terror into the hearts of the infidels. [The Koran says]: ‘Remember thy Lord inspired the angels [with the message]: I am with you. Give firmness to the Believers, I WILL CAST TERROR INTO THE HEARTS OF THOSE WHO DISBELIEVE. THEREFORE STRIKE OFF THEIR HEADS AND STRIKE OFF EVERY FINGERTIP OF THEM. THIS IS BECAUSE THEY ACTED ADVERSELY TO ALLAH AND HIS MESSENGER; AND WHOEVER ACTS ADVERSELY TO ALLAH AND HIS MESSENGER – THEN SURELY ALLAH IS SEVERE IN REQUITING (EVIL). THIS – TASTE IT, AND (KNOW) THAT FOR THE UNBELIEVERS IS THE PUNISHMENT OF FIRE. O you who believe! When you meet those who disbelieve marching for war, then turn not your backs to them. And whoever shall turn his back to them on that day – unless he turn aside for the sake of fighting or withdraws to a company – then he, indeed, becomes deserving of Allah’s wrath, and his abode is hell; and an evil destination shall it be. So you did not slay them, but it was Allah Who slew them and you did not smite when you smote (the enemy) but it was Allah Who smote, and that He might confer upon the believers a good gift from Himself; (8:12-17)
When thy Lord inspired the angels, (saying): I am with you. So make those who believe stand firm. I will throw fear into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Then smite the necks and smite of them each finger. 8:12
That is because they opposed Allah and His messenger. Whoso opposeth Allah and His messenger, (for him) lo! Allah is severe in punishment. 8:13
That (is the award), so taste it, and (know) that for disbelievers is the torment of the Fire. 8:14
O ye who believe! When ye meet those who disbelieve in battle, turn not your backs to them. 8:15-16
Who so on that day turneth his back to them, unless manoeuvring for battle or intent to join a company, he truly hath incurred wrath from Allah, and his habitation will be hell, a hapless journey’s end. 8:15-16
Those that the Muslims killed were not really killed by them. It was Allah who did the killing. 8:17
Ye (Muslims) slew them not, but Allah slew them. And thou (Muhammad) threwest not when thou didst throw, but Allah threw, that He might test the believers by a fair test from Him. Lo! Allah is Hearer, Knower. 8:17
To insure a lion’s share of booty for himself: “And know that out of all the booty that ye may acquire (in war), a fifth share is assigned to Allah, and to the Messenger, and to near relatives, orphans, the needy and the wayfarer.” (8:41)
And know that whatever ye take as spoils of war, lo! a fifth thereof is for Allah, and for the messenger and for the kinsman (who hath need) and orphans and the needy and the wayfarer, if ye believe in Allah and that which We revealed unto Our slave on the Day of Discrimination, the day when the two armies met. And Allah is Able to do all things. 8:41
The worst beasts in Allah’s sight are the disbelievers. 8:55
Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power including steeds of war to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah and your enemies and others besides whom ye may not know but whom Allah does know. 8.60
Make ready for them all thou canst of (armed) force and of horses tethered, that thereby ye may dismay the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others beside them whom ye know not. Allah knoweth them. Whatsoever ye spend in the way of Allah it will be repaid to you in full, and ye will not be wronged. 8:59-60
It is not for any prophet to have captives until he hath made slaughter in the land. You desire the frail goods of this world, while Allah desires [for you] the hereafter; and Allah is Mighty and Wise [Koran 8:67]‘… The word ‘prophet’ in this verse appears in the indefinite form, which means that [all] the prophets used to kill many of their enemies by the sword rather than take them captive… Allah says this explicitly [in the following verse]: ‘So when you meet the infidels in battle, then cut off their heads, and after you have killed many of them by the sword, place [them] in shackles, and afterwards either set them free if you choose or let them ransom [themselves] until the war ends 47:4
It is not for any prophet to have captives until he hath made slaughter in the land. Ye desire the lure of this world and Allah desireth (for you) the Hereafter, and Allah is Mighty, Wise. 8:67
Smite the necks of the disbelievers whenever you fight against them. Those who die fighting for Allah will be rewarded. 47:4
Now when ye meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks until, when ye have routed them, then making fast of bonds; and afterward either grace or ransom till the war lay down its burdens. That (is the ordinance). And if Allah willed He could have punished them (without you) but (thus it is ordained) that He may try some of you by means of others. And those who are slain in the way of Allah, He rendereth not their actions vain. 47:4
Now enjoy what ye have won [in war], as lawful and good, and keep your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.; (8:69)
Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods for theirs in return is the garden of Paradise they fight in his cause and slay and are slain a promise binding on him as truth 9.111. Suicide bombers are not committing suicide, they are seeking Islamic martyrdom (per Qur’an 9:111, which guarantees Paradise to those who “kill and are killed” for Allah), and thus the prohibition of suicide doesn’t apply to them.
Lo! Allah hath bought from the believers their lives and their wealth because the Garden will be theirs: they shall fight in the way of Allah and shall slay and be slain. It is a promise which is binding on Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur’an. Who fulfilleth His covenant better than Allah? Rejoice then in your bargain that ye have made, for that is the supreme triumph.; (9:111)
The question is this violence, ruthlessness and firmness – Is it meant to be a permanent law and feature of war, or does it apply only to the early years of Islam? The answer is given in Koran 9:123, where Allah says: ‘O ye who believe! Fight the infidels who are near to you, and let them find ruthlessness in you, and know that Allah is with the faithful.’ This was one of the last suras to descend, its verses were among the last to descend, and the laws [they set out] are timeless… The perfect Muslim is gentle with his fellow believer and harsh towards his enemy, the infidel.
O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allah is with those who keep their duty (unto Him). 9:123
Fight them! Allah will chastise them at your hands, and He will lay them low and give you victory over them, and He will heal the breasts of folk who are believers. 9:14
Those who believe, and have left their homes and striven with their wealth and their lives in Allah’s way are of much greater worth in Allah’s sight. These are they who are triumphant. 9:20 The Arabic for “striven…in Allah’s way” is jahadoo fi sabil Allah, which in Islamic theology refers in particular to jihad as warfare
FIGHT THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IN ALLAH, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Messenger have prohibited, NOR FOLLOW THE RELIGION OF TRUTH, OUT OF THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE BOOK [Christians and Jews], until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and THEY ARE IN A STATE OF SUBJECTION. (9:29)
Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by His messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low.9.29
When the sacred months have passed away, THEN SLAY THE IDOLATERS WHEREVER YOU FIND THEM, AND TAKE THEM CAPTIVES AND BESIEGE THEM AND LIE IN WAIT FOR THEM IN EVERY AMBUSH, then if they repent and keep up prayer [become believers] and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them (9:5)
Kill those who join other gods with Allah wherever you may find them. (9:5-6)
Those who oppose Allah and His messenger will burn in the fire of hell. 9:63
Prophet, make war on the unbelievers and the hypocrites and deal rigorously with them. 9:73
Non-Muslim who pretend to believe (so they won’t be killed by Muslims) are unclean and will go to hell. 9:95
On the last day Allah will kill all the disbelievers (and then he will torture them forever in hell). 10:45
When we decide to destroy a population, We send a definite order to those among them who are given the good things of this life and yet transgress; so that the word is proved true against them: then we destroy them utterly. (17:16-17)
Disbelievers will wear garments of fire, boiling fluid will be poured on their heads, their bellies and skin will be melted, they will be tormented with iron hooks, and when they try to escape they will be driven back with the taunt: Taste the doom of burning. 22:19-22
Scourge adulterers and adulteresses with 100 stripes. Do not show them any pity. Have a party of believers watch the punishment. 24:2
The fornicatress and the fornicator, flog each of them with a hundred stripes. Let not pity withhold you in their case, in a punishment prescribed by Allah, if you believe in Allah and the Last Day. And let a party of the believers witness their punishment. [This punishment is for unmarried persons guilty of the above crime (illegal sex), but if married persons commit it (illegal sex), the punishment is to stone them to death, according to Allah's law]. 24:2
And how many populations we destroyed, which exulted in their life (of ease and plenty! Now those habitations of theirs, after them are deserted—all but a miserable few! And we are their heirs! (28:58)
Allah cast panic into the hearts of the disbelievers. He killed some, and enslaved others. 33:25- 26
And Allah repulsed the disbelievers in their wrath; they gained no good. Allah averted their attack from the believers. Allah is ever Strong, Mighty. 33:25-26
And He brought those of the People of the Scripture who supported them down from their strongholds, and cast panic into their hearts. Some ye slew, and ye made captive some. 33:25-26
Accursed, they will be seized wherever found and slain with a (fierce) slaughter. 33:60-61
Allah will make those who disbelieve taste an awful doom. Their immortal home will be the Fire, since they denied Allah’s revelations. 41:27-28
Smite the necks of the disbelievers whenever you fight against them. Those who die fighting for Allah will be rewarded. 47:4
Therefore when you meet the unbelievers in fight smite at their necks, at length when ye have thoroughly subdued them bind a bond firmly on them thereafter is the time for either generosity or ransom until the war lays down its burdens…But those who are slain in the way of Allah He will never let their deeds be lost. 47.4
Now when ye meet in battle those who disbelieve, then it is smiting of the necks until, when ye have routed them, then making fast of bonds; and afterward either grace or ransom till the war lay down its burdens. That (is the ordinance). And if Allah willed He could have punished them (without you) but (thus it is ordained) that He may try some of you by means of others. And those who are slain in the way of Allah, He rendereth not their actions vain. 47:4
But if you’re willing to fight for Allah, he will provide you with lots of booty. 48:19-20
God has promised you rich booty, and has given you this with all promptness. He has stayed your enemies’ hands, so that He may make your victory a sign to true believers and guide you along a straight path. (48:19-20) Not only did Muhammad reveal an ayah that assured his followers that taking spoils was good, the success of these raids was taken as a sign that God approved of what they were doing.
And much booty that they will capture. Allah is ever Mighty, Wise. 48:19-20
Allah promiseth you much booty that ye will capture, and hath given you this in advance, and hath withheld men’s hands from you, that it may be a token for the believers, and that He may guide you on a right path. 48:19-20
Those with Muhammad are ruthless toward disbelievers and merciful toward themselves. 48:29
Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves. 48:29
The Prophet said, “The person who participates in (Holy battles) in Allah’s cause and nothing compels him to do so except belief in Allah and His Apostles, will be recompensed by Allah either with a reward, or booty (if he survives) or will be admitted to Paradise (if he is killed in the battle as a martyr). Had I not found it difficult for my followers, then I would not remain behind any sariya going for Jihad and I would have loved to be martyred in Allah’s cause and then made alive, and then martyred and then made alive, and then again martyred in His cause.” – Bukhari 001.002.035
It is not lawful to make war upon any people who have never before been called to the faith, without previously requiring them to embrace it, because the Prophet so instructed his commanders, directing them to call the infidels to the faith, and also because the people will hence perceive that they are attacked for the sake of religion, and not for the sake of taking their property, or making slaves of their children, and on this consideration it is possible that they may be induced to agree to the call, in order to save themselves from the troubles of war… If the infidels, upon receiving the call, neither consent to it nor agree to pay capitation tax, it is then incumbent on the Muslims to call upon God for assistance, and to make war upon them, because God is the assistant of those who serve Him, and the destroyer of His enemies, the infidels, and it is necessary to implore His aid upon every occasion; the Prophet, moreover, commands Muslims so to do.
In the Muslim community, the holy war is a religious duty, because of the universalism of the Muslim mission and the obligation to convert everybody to Islam either by persuasion or by force. The other religious groups did not have a universal mission, and the holy war was not a religious duty for them, save only for purposes of defense… Islam is under obligation to gain power over other nations.
Muslims have to realize that half a Muslim is worse than a kafir. Only a true Muslim can be a terrorist and can terrorize the world. The litmus test is the five times prayers in a mosque where they can be seen and counted. Muhammad thought of an ingenious way to correct this situation. When Muhammad noticed some Muslims missing congregational prayers in mosque regularly, he wanted to set an example for others; he had the vermin’s burnt alive along with their houses and the families.
“The Prophet said, “burn all those who had not left their houses for the prayer, burning them alive inside their homes.” Bukhari: 1.11.626
In another verse Allah said about apostates “they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and feet be cut off from the opposite sides, or exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world; and a great torment is theirs in the hereafter.” (Surah al Maidah:Verse 33).
The Prophet said, ‘If a Muslim discards his religion, kill him. Bukhari: 4.52.260

Hello sister readers,
The reality of the muslim marriages is produced below.
ISLAMIC MARRIAGE AND LEGALISED PROSTITUTION
The significance of married life is great. Fortunate indeed is that couple who starts married life with right understanding of its importance and greatness. Marriage is a sacred spiritual partnership between two souls who have come upon this earth to evolve an ideal life of nobility, virtue and Dharma (social custom in Hinduism) and attain their goal of divine perfection through such ideal life. Therefore, the home of a married couple is a sanctified centre of spiritual life. The home is their place of worship, prayer and daily meditation. It is truly said that the marriages are made in heaven. Sex is not everything in a marriage.
The home is a sacred arena for the attainment of self-conquest and self-mastery which is more thrilling than conquering a monarchy. Blessed are those couples who lead this divine life, where truth, purity and universal love, mutual trust and compassion constitute the basic foundation of such divine life. Such a house is the abode of God. People may visit such a sacred place for pilgrimage.
In Hinduism, a wedding ceremony at its core is essentially a Vedic yajña (a fire sacrifice), in which the Arian deities are invoked in the ancient Indo-Aryan style. Agni, the fire-deity (or the sacred fire) is the primary witness of a Hindu marriage. By law and tradition, no Hindu marriage is deemed complete unless in the presence of this sacred fire, seven encirclements have been made around it by the bride and the groom together. Divorce is rare amongst Hindus.
In Christianity, the views of marriage historically have regarded marriage as ordained by God for the lifelong union of a man and a woman. The fundamental principal was first articulated Biblically in Genesis 2:24 (Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife; and they shall be one flesh). Afterwards, Jesus set forth his basic position on marriage by bringing together two important passages from Genesis (1:27; 2:7– 25). He pointed to the completion of the creation – “male and female he created them”. Then Jesus described marriage as a sacred relationship, a union, so intimate and real that “the two became one flesh”. As persons, husband and wife are of equal value. In truth, they are one.
Then what about Islam and Muslims?
Well, some hopeless pessimists had observed that marriage is a legalized prostitution. This exactly defines the ‘holiness’ of Muslim marriage and the status of married women under Islam. In Islam, through marriage, a man takes the rightful ownership of the ‘meat’ of a woman’s body. Unlike Hinduism and Christianity, marriage is not a binding union in Islam. Here, the idea of association, partnership, or companionship between the married couple is completely absent. The Koran does not view divorce or separation as a tragic option but provide a golden opportunity for man to replace his wife. In Islam, women have no mind, only the ‘meat’ of her body is ‘halal’ for man to enjoy. As per Shahih Bukhari 7.62.173, Wife must shave her pubic hair if husband returns home at night after a long journey.
Nasrin (2007) lamented, “My mother used ‘purdah’. She wore a ‘burqa’ with a net cover in front of the face. It reminded me of the meat-safes in my grandmother’s house. One had a net door made of cloth, the other of metal. But the objective was same – keeping the meat safe”.
During Muhammad and his successors, prostitution diminished for a time (Durant, 1950. p. 220). It’s not because Muhammad had a high regard for women and he worked for the welfare of the fallen women and upgraded their condition. It’s because Muhammad lowered the status of married women to the lowest level of sex-slavery and prostitution. He allowed sexual appetite so many outlets within the Islamic law that the prostitutes became jobless. The shocking truth is that Muhammad viewed women as domestic animals. In his farewell sermon Muhammad equated women to cattle. Tabari (IX:113) recorded (cited Winn, 2004, p. 557) “Treat women well for they are like domestic animals and they possess nothing themselves. Allah has made the enjoyment of their bodies lawful in his Qur’an.” As per Sunaan Abu Dawud 11.2155; Women, slaves and camels are same; must seek Allah’s refuge from all these. Muhammad’s teaching was too great. During 2007, a man (of forty years) from Afghanistan first shaved his wife Nazia’s (of seventeen years) head and then cut off her ears, and nose and broke her teeth with a stone, knocked her down and beat her severely until her hands and legs were broken and burnt her feet with boiling water while she fainted, on the first day of Eid ul Adha, an Islamic ritual of sacrifice. Nazia is his second wife. He already killed his first wife. (Hairan, 2007; IRIN, 2007). This is how some Muslims celebrate Eid festival; sacrificing own wife in place of a camel. Camels are costly but women are cheap. In Afghanistan, the husband usually sleeps with all the four wives in the same bed and enjoys sex in full view of non-participant wives.
In Urdu, women are called ‘aurat’ (عورت), which came from the Arabic word ‘awrah’ (عورة). The Arabic word refers to the genitals of a woman’s body, in a simple and straightforward word, which is called the ‘vagina’. It means, the entire body of a Muslim woman is a huge vagina and nothing else (Warraq, 2005. p. 316). How many Urdu speaking Asian Muslims know this fact that for referring their mothers, sisters and daughters, they use a word which actually degrades their women folks?
‘Nikah’ (Muslim marriage, النكاح) is an Arabic word whose literal meaning is penetration (Kaleeby, 2002; Warraq, 2005). It can be pronounced as ‘Nokh’, which again means the ‘awrah’, the giant vagina, i.e, the entire body of a Muslim woman. When the word ‘Nikah’ is used to mean marriage, the actual meaning is not marriage but literally ‘sexual penetration’. Ignorant Muslims often use these words, without knowing their actual meaning and degrade their woman folks to the level of sex-slaves and cheap highway prostitutes.
Kasem (n. d) concluded that the method of securing such sexual / physical pleasure is very similar to a commercial / business transaction. In plain language, this is called prostitution. In all cases of marriage and sex, the women are treated merely as sex-objects, much like the provider of a service for which she must be paid some compensation.
The compensation (dower) for sexual service of the wife is known as ‘mahr’, which all Muslim men must agree to pay before marriage. It can be immediate or deferred to a future date. No Islamic marriage is valid without the payment of ‘mahr’. Sometimes, Muslim women take keen pride in the sums paid for them as ‘mahr’ without knowing the actual purpose of it. In reality, however, ‘mahr’ is nothing but the payment to purchase a female body for sexual enjoyment. This degradation is sanctioned by Allah in ‘Sha’ria’ (the divine law of Allah). So when a Muslim marries off his sister or daughter to another Muslim family, he actually auctions his sister’s or daughter’s soft and warm vagina for a quick financial profit. If the ‘mahr’ is not sufficient, then as per ‘Sha’ria’ Law, the marriage can be cancelled. Often the wife does not get to use the ‘mahr’ for herself. This money is used to furnish the house of the newly married couple or her father grabs the entire amount (Warraq, 2005, p. 311). In an Islamic marriage, there is hardly a trace of romantic love. One rarely finds love poetry in their marriage songs.
Kasem (n. d) furthermore lamented taking reference from an authentic ‘Sha’ria’ Law book, that the husband’s rights include but not limited to ‘…ownership of a woman’s body to do as he likes including beating… a husband possesses full right to enjoy his wife’s person (from top of her head to the bottom of her feet!) in what does not physically harm her… he is entitled to take her with him when he travels.’ Under Sha’ria Law, the husband is not obliged to pay for her medical expenses in case of illness except childbirth (Warraq, 2005. p. 311).
Besides above, Kasem (n. d) continued by taking reference from another book ‘The Hedaya Commentary on the Islamic Laws’. This book is frequently used by Sha’ria lawyers in the interpretation of Islamic laws. It says, “…full dower is the payment for the delivery of woman’s person, ‘Booza’, meaning ‘Genitalia arvum Mulieris’ ”
Kasem (n.d) with disgust concluded, “Yes, you read it correctly. The meaning of ‘Genitalia arvum Mulieris’ is woman’s vagina. The above few sentences clearly meant that a woman sells her vagina in return for the dower. This is a commercial transaction. Make no mistake about it! Period.’’
Though Kasem was blunt in his statement, but truly the Islamic Holy Scripture Al-Hadis is in agreement with him. As per Mishkat al-Masabih, “A woman is like a private part. When she goes out the devil casts a glance at her“.
The divine law of Allah, Sha’ria, does not recognize ‘forced sex’ on women after marriage. There is nothing called marital rape. Once ‘mahr’ is paid, the wife is a legal sex-slave of the man (often next to three other equally helpless wives). In prostitution, a customer does not need to bother about the sexual gratification of the prostitute. Similarly, the sexual desires and preferences of the women are not recognized in Islam. Marital rape incidents are too high in Bangladesh, as Azad (1995, p. 240) lamented, “For a woman, the first night after marriage is the night of forcible sex. In Bangladesh, the number of marital rape incidents is several times higher than any other rapes.”
Elsewhere, Azad (1995, p. 248) again lamented, “Here [Bangladesh], there are single rapes and multiple rapes. Here; father rapes daughter, son-in-law rapes mother-in-law … top executive rapes sweeper of his office, teacher rapes girl student, Imam rapes the kindergarten girl, brother-in-law rapes the sister-in-law, father-in-law rapes daughter-in-law…”[original in Bengali, translated by author].
Islam’s attitude towards women can better be understood from a sixteenth century treatise, The perfumed garden by Shaykh Nefzawi. “Do you know women’s religion is in their vaginas?” Nefzawi asked, “they are insatiable as per as their vulvas are concerned, and so long as their lust is satisfied they do not care whether it is a buffoon, a negro, a valet, or even a despised man. It is Satan, who makes the juices flow from their vaginas” (cited Warraq, 1995. p. 290).
Sha’ria Law permits temporary marriages (Nikah Mutah), though there is a Hadith which prohibits it. Mutah marriage is a type of prostitution in the guise of marriage. Dictionary of Islam defines Mutah as ‘a marriage contracted for a limited period, for a certain sum of money’ (cited Brahmachari, 2008). Though Sunni Muslims have banned Mutah, but it is still widely practiced amongst Shias. Under this system, a Muslim can change his wife everyday. It’s a temporary permit for sexual service and hence a legalized prostitution.
In Hyderabad, a mega-city of India; the Mullahs and Maulvies work as pimps for old Arabs and arrange Mutah marriages (for duration of 15 – 30 days) with the young Muslim girls. After satisfying their lust using these poor Muslim girls and enjoying the Indian hospitality, these heavily rich but morally bankrupt Arabs divorce (Islamic divorce – triple talaq) the girls after robbing them of their virginity and respect and return to their lands as respectable grand-fathers and fathers. In one incident, an old man named Muhammad Zafer Yaqub Hassan al Jorani from Sharjah married Haseena Begum; a 19 year old girl on May 7, 2004 and after two days divorced her. Again on May 24, he married another 16 year old girl Ruksana Begum. Haseena, reported the matter to police and the culprit was arrested together with the shameless Mullah-pimp Shamsuddin who received 40,000 Indian rupees from Jorani. Jorani already had two wives and 11 children back home. As per another report published on Hindu-Voice January 2007 issue (cited Brahmachari, 2008), a 60 year old rich Arab married 3 girls, Afreen, Farheena and Sultana, at a single sitting within ten minutes in Hyderabad.
There are about 35 to 40 reported fake marriages occur every year between rich Arabs and young Indian Muslim girls in Hyderabad. The actual figure is much higher. In fact, the Mullahs start chasing these Arabs right at the International airport of Hyderabad. As soon as an Arab lands at the airport, the Mullah pimps target him and the negotiation starts then and there. Photographs of young girls are shown, financial matters are settled and date and place for such marriages are finalized. It’s a big racket. Their shameful acts remain unknown to their own daughters and grand daughters of equal age back home. What is disturbing is that these Arabs are even rented out rooms made conveniently in the homes of these Maulvies who perform these fake marriages. In some cases these Islamic marriages last only 24 hours (Sheikh, 2005). This is how, using Islam, the Mullahs are promoting Islamic prostitution and filling up their pockets with money. Majhar Hussain, the president of the Confederation of Voluntary Agencies said, “This [Mutah marriage] is turning the young Muslim girls into prostitutes”. (cited Brahmachari, 2008). If this practice keeps on going unabated and these Mullahs are not stopped, then very soon Hyderabad might become the centre of legalized, Sha’ria-approved Islamic whore city, another ‘Brothel Mecca’ of fornication sought by Muslim men mostly from the Arab world. Many Muslims will be seen coming to India for Sex-Hajj (i.e, Islamic sex pilgrimage). Once there is shortage of young virgin girls, Mullahs will probably look for young Muslim housewives to carry on the prostitution.
How many Indian Muslims know these Mullah activities in Hyderabad ? The tragedy is that, Mullahs, the ‘keepers’ of Islam are also the biggest ‘exploiters’ of Islam. Mullahs make money at the cost of the pride of common Muslim’s daughters and sisters.
In Islam, even the breast-milk of a woman does not belong to her and the husband (who purchased her with ‘mahr’) has the lawful right on it. If the adult husband forcefully drinks the milk of his wife under ‘Sha’ria’, the milk is treated as a food and not as foster milk. According to Malik’s Muwatta (Book 30, Number 30.1.11), “Suckling…after the first two years, little or much, it does not make anything haram. It is like food.” As per another Hadith from Malik’s Muwatta (Book 30, Number 30.2.14), a Muslim man is divinely allowed to drink his wife’s milk (or, multiple wives’ milk on choice and test) regularly and still can remain her sex-partner (Truly, a Muslim has a lot of advantages over non-Muslims!). This is the height of stupidity in Allah’s divine law.
Few years ago AIMPLB (All India Muslim Personal Law Board) had formulated the Muslim marriage law. But there were no woman in the board (Sheikh, 2005). In a civilized society, this is unthinkable but in Muslim world it is natural. The “halal meat” of a woman’s body has no individuality, no identity of its own.
As per Sha’ria, a woman can be married at any age even when she is a newly born baby. Khomeini said “A man can have sexual pleasure from a child as young as a baby” (Paz, 2006). What Khomeini said was ethically wrong but islamically divine. Muhammad, the master of darkness was a sex-maniac. Much had been written about his superb collection of wives (which includes baby Aisha and daughter-in-law Zainab), slave-girls and concubines. The lesser known fact is that, once he was sexually attracted to a crawling baby also. Ibn Ishaq, the earliest and most authentic biographer of the prophet recorded in his book Sirat Rasul Allah.
“…the apostle saw her (Ummu’l-Fadl) when she was baby crawling before him and said, ‘If she grows up and I am still alive I will marry her.’ But he died before she grew up…”
Umar (Khulafa Rashedin, the rightly guided Caliph) followed Muhammad’s footsteps and married Umm Kulthum, the four years old half-sister of Aisha. This is the divinity of Islam. If both Prophet and Caliph are abnormal, how can we blame Khomeini ? Encouraging child marriage is same as advocating child prostitution.
Polygamy is allowed in Koran (4:3). A Muslim can take maximum four wives a time. In India, the Mughal emperor Akbar’s foster brother Mirza Aziz had a brilliant explanation as to why a man needed four wives. ‘A man must marry one woman of Hindustan to rear up children, one wife from Khurasan to do the household work, one woman from Iran to keep company and talk’. And the fourth ? ‘Why? One woman from Transoxiana to whip the other three and keep peace’(Early, 1977 p. 666). Al-Ghazali advices to all Muslims, “If one woman does not suffice, take some more (up to four). If still you have not found peace, change them”.
The laxity in the number of wives and concubines, and freedom of men to marry and remarry, marriage within close relatives etc often make Muslim families to proliferate confusingly. So, when little Munawwar Ali goes to Madrassah for Islamic education; his best identity is; he is one of the twenty children by one of the thirteen wives of Sheikh Abdullah Ali! Large family is one of the reasons for which bulk of the Muslims are poor.
Throughout the history, Muslim rulers used to have a closely guarded wing called ‘harem’. In Arabic a ‘harem’ is a prohibited place where all the ‘begums’ (wives) live – vacuum-sealed world of their own. In plain language these harems are private brothels. In India, the Mughal harem was an immense establishment.
Akbar, the Mughal Emperor had more than 5000 women (Early, 1977. p. 642). Out of this, his private wives numbered only 300 and rest all was concubines. His son Jahangir had more than 1000 wives (Pelsaert, 1972). Ali had 200 wives. Ibn al-Teiyib , a famous dyer of Baghdad, who lived to be 85 years, is reported to have 900 wives, al-Mutawakkil had 400 wives – each of whom had shared his bed one night only (Durant, 1950, p. 222). Muhammad’s grandson Hasan had up to 300 wives. Hasan often married four wives in one sitting and then divorced four wives in one sitting (Kasem, n. d). Muslims have no respect for celibacy. Most Muslim saints are married with a houseful of kids. Durant (1950, p. 220) commented, ‘Perhaps Islam erred in the opposite direction, and carried marriage to the extreme’.
Abul Fazl,(cited Early, 1977 p. 643) had an excellent reason for the support of polygamy – ‘Just as for other people more than one wife is not suitable, so for great persons more are necessary, so that their dwellings may be more splendid, and a large number people may be supported.’
Now the question is, how these people did manage to have so many wives, when only four are sanctioned to each of them. It is very simple, only a little manipulation is required. Allah said in Koran (4:3), “Marry what seems good to you of women, by twos, threes or fours”. This statement was interpreted in different ways by different Koranic scholars – one scholar added two, three and four and got nine wives. Another got a total of 18 wives by doubling two, three and four and added the results (Eraly, 1977. p. 666). Since, in Islam there is no shortage of Koranic scholars, there are many interpretations when fat incentives are given. This is how the number of women in private harems increased.
In the orthodox Muslim families in Middle Eastern countries, the father or the brother might marry off the woman to whomever he wished before she became of age. Love marriages are generally unheard of and prohibited, because in a love-match the villainous man gets too much for nothing. Girls are usually married by the age of twelve, and are mothers at the age of thirteen or fourteen (Durant, 1950; p. 220). Often the groom is not allowed to see the face of his bride before marriage. There are parties, fisting and prayers. After many ceremonies, the husband in privacy of the bridal chamber drew aside of the veil of his wife and pray, “In the name of Allah, the compassionate, the merciful….”. If this belated examination left the groom dissatisfied, he might at once send his wife back to her parents with dowry and search for another bride (Durant, 1950; p. 220).
In general, women have no meaningful life (the situation is not much changed since the time of Muhammad) of their own in Islam. Even at the lowest stratum of society, where gender inequality has little meaning, their life is bleaker than men. Wretchedly poor and undernourished, their health is broken by intermittent childbearing, weighed down by endless drudgery, often in addition to work alongside their men in the field, there was not much more to their lives than bare existence. In Afghanistan and in Bangladesh, more than half of the teenage girls are married. In Iran, Girls often get married when they are only nine (Spencer, 2005). In Bangladesh, 59 percent girls suffer from malnutrition and 10 percent girls suffer from acute malnutrition. (UNDP, 1995).
Even for the middle-class and upper-class Muslim women the situation is same, as Manucci (1989) observed “they [Muslim women] had no cultural interest beyond their blind and routine devotions, had no social life outside the circle of their extended families, no role in the society”
The education of girls, in most ranks of the population, seldom went beyond learning their prayers, a few chapters of the Koran and the arts of home (Durant, 1950; p 221). Liberation of women and education is seen as a threat to male dominance. Omar, the second Caliph said, ‘Prevent the women from learning to write! Say no to their capricious ways’. And again ‘Impose nudity on women, because cloths are one reason for leaving the house’ (Warraq, 2005, p 299). Elsewhere Durant (1950) lamented, “her winsome childhood earned a few years of love, but at seven or eight she was married off to any youth of the clan whose father would offer the purchase price for the bride … she formed the part of the estate of her father, her husband, or her son and was bequeathed with it; she was always the servant, rarely the comrade, of the man. He demanded many children of her, or rather many sons; her duty was to produce warriors. She was in many cases, but one of his many wives. He could dismiss of her at any time at will.” In Pakistan, Islamic fundamentalists are too opposed to education of women. In one lawless five-day period in February, 2004; the fundamentalists burnt down eight girls schools (Spencer, 2005). The Mullahs in Pakistan, while addressing rebellious women in Rawalpindi cautioned, “Let these women be warned, we will tear them to pieces. We will give them such terrible punishments that no one in the future will dare to raise a voice against Islam.” (cited Warraq, 2005. p. 321)
Some medieval theologians thought that Muhammad had invented polygamy, but it is not true, because it antedated Islam by some years (Durant, 1954; p. 39). Muhammad legalized polygamy in his newly established religion and lowered the status of women to the level of prostitutes with divine sanction. As Ascha (1989) concluded, “Islam is the fundamental cause of the repression of the Muslim women and remains the major obstacle to the evolution of their position.”
In cultures that permit polygamy, the youngest co-wife is required to care for elder co-wives. This relationship is sometimes a daughter/mother relationship, but in many cases the elder wives view the younger with bitterness and resentment. In many polygamous relationships, the child bride is treated as an unpaid servant and may never succeed in earning the respect of the elder wives or their children.
In addition to above; domestic violence is the most widespread and common form of violence against women and young girls in Muslim families. Child brides live with older men who expect them to carry out all the duties of an adult woman, even if those responsibilities are too great for a child, let alone a woman. Frequently, the husbands assert their authority in the home through physical violence and consider wife torture a heroic deed. In Egypt twenty-nine percent of married adolescents have been beaten by their husbands; out of this forty-one percent during pregnancy. In Jordan, twenty-six percent of reported cases of domestic violence were committed against wives under eighteen. As per one report by Amnesty International; over ninety percent of Pakistani wives have been mishandled (struck, beaten, or abused sexually) for minor offences like cooking unsatisfactory meal and failure to give birth of a male child (Spencer, 2005). Wife beating is sanctioned by Allah (Koran 4:34). In a Hadith Muhammad advised, “Hang up your whip where your wife can see it” (cited Warraq, 2005. p. 314). In Sudan, the genital passage of the divorced women and widows are closed by stitching keeping a small portion open for menses (Azad, 2005. p. 197).
Even Muhammad raised his violent hand on his child bride, Aisha. It is recorded in Sahih Muslim, Book 004, number 2127 (cited Kasem, 2005) – once while sleeping with Aisha, Muhammad secretly left his bed and went to the graveyard at Baqi; Aisha spied and followed Muhammad; when Muhammad learned Aisha’s misdeed he hit her (beat her) on her chest that caused much pain to her. This divine act of wife-beating is recorded in The History of al-Tabari. Vol. IX, (cited Kasem, 2005). However, the ‘kind’ treatment of women does not end here. Kasem (2005) cited another Hadith from Sunaan Abu Dawud (11.2142) – ‘The Prophet said: A man will not be asked as to why he beat his wife’. Somalia Muslims whip their newly wedded wives on the very first night (Azad, 1995. p. 197; Miles, 1988. p. 89). Merciless beating without any reason is a religious tradition in Somalia.
Fajlur Rahaman referred to one Hadith (cited Azad, 1995. p. 166), which says “even if the husband is a leper and the wife cleans the pus of his wounds with her tongue and swallows the pus, still she is not equal to her husband” (original in Bengali, translated by author).
In pre-Islamic Arabia women were free, happy and respectful. They used to take part in meetings, often attended in court of law with similar equality of man; run business (Khadija, the first wife of Muhammad was a business women and employed several men to look after her business); even fought many battles. Only under Islam they were animalized.
So, this is the status of married women under Islam. No doubt, a comparison of a legally married woman with prostitutes is unethical and of bad taste. It does not reflect well on the author. But, this article is not the product of a sick mind. Every bit of information on this article is true and taken from authentic sources. On the other hand, Muhammad’s and his followers ‘high regard’ for women points to the only conclusion that Islam cannot be a God approved religion. It is because; high status and respect of women and responsibility of a married couple towards each other, to the family and to the society in general; as taught in Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism and other established religions; is totally absent in Islam. The plain truth is that, the God of Islam is an invented God. This God is actually a puppet and his only purpose is to legalize any crime in the name of religion. And, no doubt, this God is doing well in his job, ever since it was invented.
In general a Muslim’s attitude towards ‘sex’ is almost same as that of an animal. Marriage is never a sacrament with him; it is frankly a commercial transaction. It never occurs to him to be ashamed that he treats women as prostitutes or animals; he would rather be ashamed of the opposite.
In Islamic nations, much of the married women’s work remains unrecognized and unvalued. Women are constantly under the threat of divorce (Azad, 1995). Often they don’t get enough food to eat from their husbands. In Bangladesh, seventy-seven percent of married women from middle income households and more than ninety-five percent of those from low income households are underweight and malnourished (UNDP, 1995). On top of this, their contribution to the family often goes unnoticed. In Sudan, the time spent for gathering fuel wood has increased fourfold in a decade, which is the duty of a woman. In Mozambique, women spent more than fifteen hours a week just for collecting water for the family (UNPD, 1995). Some Afghani women are compelled to go for grazing around the mountain valleys looking for a blade of grass to feed themselves and their children (Sina, 2001). A recent UN report disclosed that women in Saudi Arabia are the victims of systematic and pervasive discrimination across all aspects of social life (Times, 2008). In Islamic nations, more girls than boys die at young age. Birth of a girl is still seen as a disaster in Muslim societies. Women, who constitute half the global population, definitely deserve a better deal.
Islam seeks power, promotes hate and domination in the name of an imaginary God. In a civilized society, charity begins at home, but in Islamic society; hate and domination begin at home. Probably prostitutes are in a better position than those helpless ‘animals’ called ‘Muslim women’. The greatest task of moral is always sexual regulation. A sense of family value is observed amongst many animals also. Mother is the first ‘Guru’ (spiritual guide) for a child. The child learns the alphabet from his mother. The child learns to speak from his mother. She may make him a saint or a ruler or a rogue. She imparts her virtues to her child with her milk. No society can progress unless their women folks are educated and free. Muslim women should be given education and liberty and then they will bring the required revisions for their betterment. No need for so-called intellectual Muslims to shed endless crocodile tears to try to fool the civilized world. It’s a pity that the Muslims are too spiritually deprived to ever realize this fact.
Hello Muslima,
Please go through the following lines:,
Just used common sense to move away from religion. I was born in a Muslim family, hence I was a Muslim till I became an adult. Had I been born under any other religion, I would’ve been a follower of the same. And all my life I heard that Muslims would have the first right to heaven. That sounded very absurd to me and as my brain opened up i realized it was not my achievement of being born in a Muslim family that I had a birth right to heaven. Surely God cannot be so unfair. Furthermore, the history of Islam is full of bloodshed and war, and the Quran clearly allows jihad on one side and then says all humans are equal. Surely God could not reveal such hypocritical statements and I openly challenge the validity of the book. I am a God fearing human who believes every human is equal, be he/she from any religion, caste or creed. I freely choose not to follow Islam anymore as the concept is against my altruistic views on life, where a persons life and faith should be governed by his/her own free mind and logical reasoning. Not by the way of birth or what the ancestors have always believed in.
Arsalan Chatha, 24, Pakistan, now an agnostic
I left Islam. I always thought that Muhammad can not be God’s messenger or a holy man! By looking at his personal affairs, especially with women, I can not follow a man who marries each woman he meets! Also the contradictions in the Quran and the way it was written – in a way that is so difficult to understand, made me believe that this is a man made religion . Also, Islam has NO tolerance for other belief systems, and the argument that Muslims are very lucky that they were born in Muslim countries got me convinced that Muslims are so closed-minded and forgot that there are many wonderful people on this planet who are not Muslims. I think Islam is the worst thing that happened to humanity. It pushes Muslim’s backwards and that is why there is no single Muslim country is advanced or even civilized! Also on the question of prayer, they say if you do not pray 5 times a day you will be burned in hell for ever! I tried prayer of course when I was a Muslim, but I did not feel anything, I felt I am just exercising or in the Gym, I felt I am like a robot. No feeling at all. This is pure brainwashing. Now I am not sure if there is God or Not, the theory of evolution blew my mind and the fact that there are so many religions in the world and so many problems in the world made me believe that Man created God not the other way around.
Hussein, Egypt, now an agnostic
9/11 probably opened my eyes. I realized that Islam at its best couldn’t re-invent itself or adapt to the changing world. I realized also, its the reason for all failures of Arabs and Muslims. Yet Islam is apologetic to every medieval notion, the way it treats women, other non-believers and religions, solving simple problems of life other than Halal/Haraam and just branding others as blasphemous. This religion goes against my mind and values, that is why I left it.
Ahmed BenKerishan, United Arab Emirates,,
Hi Muslima Umme…….
I have already said that I too donot believe much in Quran. It is not meant for women. Sabia you are right to point out that Islamic rules are barbaric, cruel against females in muslim community, which are established by the following quotes from Quran:-
(1) A husband has sex with his wife, as a plow goes into a field. Your women are your fields, so go into your fields whichever way you like . . ‘If a man invites his wife to sleep with him and she refuses to come to him, then the angels send their curses on her till morning.
(2) Husbands are a degree above their wives. The Prophet said, ‘I looked at Paradise and found poor people forming the majority of its inhabitants; and I looked at Hell and saw that the majority of its inhabitants were women.
(3) A male gets a double share of the inheritance over that of a female.
(4) A woman’s testimony counts half of a man’s testimony. ‘This is because of the deficiency of a woman’s mind.’
(5) A wife may remarry her ex—husband if and only if she marries another man, they have sex, and then this second man divorces her.
and if the husband divorces his wife (for the third time), she shall not remain his lawful wife after this (absolute) divorce, unless she marries another husband and the second husband divorces her. [In that case] there is no harm if they [the first couple] remarry.
(6) Slave—girls are sexual property for their male owners.
And forbidden to you are wedded wives of other people except those who have fallen in your hands [as prisoners of war).
(7) A man may be polygamous with up to four wives.
(8) A husband may simply get rid of one of his undesirable wives. Allah made it clear that the husband cannot literally keep equality between two or more wives because they themselves cannot be equal in all respects. It is too much to demand from a husband that he should mete out equal treatment to a beautiful wife and to an ugly wife, to a young wife and to an old wife, to a healthy wife and to an invalid wife, and to a good natured wife and to an ill—natured wife. These and like things naturally make a husband more inclined towards one wife than towards the other.
(9) Husbands may hit their wives even if the husbands merely fear highhandedness in their wives (quite apart from whether they actually are highhanded).If you fear highhandedness from your wives, remind them [of the teaching of God], then ignore them when you go to bed, then hit them. If they obey you, you have no right to act against them. God is most high and great.
(10) Mature men are allowed to marry prepubescent girls.
Prophet, when you [and the believers] divorce women, divorce them for their prescribed waiting—period and count the waiting—period accurately . . . 4 And if you are in doubt about those of your women who have despaired of menstruation, (you should know that) their waiting period is three months, and the same applies to those who have not menstruated as yet. As for pregnant women, their period ends when they have delivered their burden.
Maududi correctly interprets the plain meaning of verse 4, which appears in the context of divorce:
Therefore, making mention of the waiting—period for girls who have not yet menstruated, clearly proves that it is not only permissible to give away the girl at this age but it is permissible for the husband to consummate marriage with her. Now, obviously no Muslim has the right to forbid a thing which the Qur’an has held as permissible.
In the name of above quotes, innumerable attrocities are committed on females and males enjoys all sorts of freedoms irrespective of their personal demerits to be called as a human. These are known as top 10 rules to oppress female community in the islam.
In view of the above, I request our young female community that if they get any good boy, liberal, kind hearted, sobre, educative, like minded, committed and loyal, they should not feel hesitated to marry him irrespective of community or religion.

If everyone knows the true status of Nuslim Women even the men would want to be a Muslim Womn ( Jazak ALLAH )
But In That Condition As You True Muslim Is Too
I have seen a trend that Muslim women who marry outside their religion try to propagate the same. They simply want others to do the same as well like seema, Chand etc.
They lie, cheat about their lives and even mislead people.
The facts are very different.
Believe is the single most important thing in Human and it is very important that they believe in same things.
Certain so called Muslim —if they do not believe in Allah and Quran are not Muslims and they can marry anyone.
It is the Muslim girl who always loses after marrying a non muslim. Thier kids suffer the worst. Most of them land up being divorced.
They marry in hurry and repent in leisure

Hey Zeba and Chand,
Thanks for writing for the cause of muslim women community. It will be long way to improve their social life. It is perfectly true that Pakistan is the hell for women. Look how many girls are thrown in brothels in Lahore, Karachi, Peshwar by the male dominated community of Pakistan.
Muslim girls have right to enjoy their life gracefully and respectably.
Hi Admin.
I am not recommending muslim girls to marry hindu boys straightway. It is subject to personality traits of good quality husband, caring, loving, sympathetic and committed to accommopany in all phases of life. If he is so, then I am recommending not to waste time to marry (if both are matured and marriageable age) and dont get misled by the islamic so called prohibition.
There are so many things prohibited in Islam, like gambling, raping, drinking alcohol, earn interest on a capital, not to commit attrocities on innocents. Are all muslim males are following such religious teachings? How Talibanies committed and tortured women in Afganishthan with the backing of Pakistan, so called sacred land giving shelters to all dreaded terrorists of the world.
There is only one supreme power, guiding and controlling entire universe, who is remembered/worshipped by different segments in different manner.
Hi Chand Osmani
You are really luckey in few muslim girls.
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

Well, story appears to be fake,
However i would add – “drunker, womanizer, gamblers, uneducated” these attributes are not for muslims.
A muslim is prohibited to drink wine, gamble, having unlawful sex, and emphasized for education.
you said – “My point here is that in the name of religion women are exploited, tortured in muslim community. They are not allowed to move freely,”
i would say this is just shit and crap. Infact Islam is the only religion who protected Women from disgrace.
Islam says to the believers keep you gaze low, don’t see woman with wrong intentions, and also urges women to cover their body.
Women rights in Islam can be listened in lecture of Dr. Zakir Naik
Islam prohibits nudity, shamelessnes, unlawful sex, premarital affairs,
adultery, alcoholism to prevent Women. But others advocate this in form of Women liberalisation and freedom.
Women are allowed to ask for separation if they are not happy with their partner, but marrying polythiest is forbidden for muslim Men and Women.
hey Amir just chk out what happens in UAE and other islamic countries n then open your mouth. men can marry any no of times n women have to remain like beggars for divorce. is this what ur God tells you to do? how many Muslim countries really repsect women? give them freedom alone? they all are cowards. including you. You just treat women like animals. hell on earth creatures.
What freedom do you want? Please be explicit?
freedom of premarital affairs?
freedom of being model and item girl, who expose for money?
We respect our women. Men and women are free to fulfill their wishes until they transgress.
In other country a man can have sex relations with hundred girl, but don’t marry anyone. Do you want that culture.
Marriage is a pious relation that bind man and woman in a knot of love and care. Nobody is forced to marry ( Islam prohibits it ).
If someone marries more than once he has to take care of all and be just with all, which is difficult today, thats why it is preferable to marry only one.
amir u have real shit thots. not all women believe in exposing. why dont u wear a Burkha n rome about evrywr? u will realise how dumb u feel inside it. i pray u to be born as a women in saudi country in next birth. u will realise wat pain it seems to be born a girl in such sick countries. no freedom of voting, driving a car, leave alone going out of d house without a male company. its real sick. if ur husband tortures u n dn in the police station u need to take ur brother or some male to prove it. so wonen r just dogs for u. nothn else. sick mentality. ur quran teaches all such rubbish right? wat equality u talkn abt Mr amir? which Muslim nation shows equality? u just keep sleeping to the truth

Thans Chand,
I do appreciate your struggle and propagating muslim girls to marry even Hindu boys provided they are wise enough, liberal, educated and good personality traits. My point is here only why restrictions are imposed on females through religious barriers and why undue leverage is given to the males irrespective of their evils?
Dear Fathima, it is true that muslims react very violently if a muslim girl marries a Hindu girl. But in case legally you are elgible for marriage, and your husbands is a earning hand,soldly behind you, nothing could happen. You have to get your marriage reistered, then no problem. Your husband has to have good relations in his society.
Further I (a born Muslim) belong to India from a middle class family. I have married a Hindu boy after attaining age of maturity. I donot have any problem with him. Initially my parents had problems but later due to behaviour of my inlaws and husband, they are happy now. Presently I am also working in a import export house in Mumbai and my husband in IT company
Zeba,
Apparently you have not asked the Hindu to convert, honourable thought.
How do you manage conflicting religious views in your life? What do you teach to your children about the God?
Chand, I heard that once a muslim woman marries a hindu, she is treated badly by people of muslim community..there are cases where they resort to violence…what to do in that case???
We are glad that you are happy now. You are recommending Muslim girls to marry Hindus, even you know that it is prohibited in Islam. Apparently you are still a good Muslim, how do you justify your recommendation to marry Muslim girls to non-believers in Islam?
What do you teach to your kids about Hindu Gods? Are those idols or different way to reach Allah?
Best wishes.
Some one posted this link on my blog:

Just read the comments to feel the hypocrisy of Indian Muslim men.
And if you go to facebook page of Suhasini Haider, you will find Muslim men singing songs for her.
Who are these people? Educated ones, as they write in English.
You are still in Islam after all that?
Though, theologically and technically, you are no longer a Muslim.
