Dear, you should give sincere thought how are you muslim,it's normal answer is that your parents were muslims,& they were muslims due to their parentage…it is just conditioning of our mind …it totally depends upon that how are you conditioned….in which set up you have grown up…by existence you you was created as human after birth we divide our selves in castes & countris…..

It all depends upon ,'how much are you existential',if one really had open mind then there might be different answers…...

Islam is against women rights. Public space belongs to men according to muslim mentality. Women are seen as inferior

what you are saying is right….but what I had said is different from this topic,here we are not talking about qualities of religion but of religion itself….the religion that divides humanity into different faiths leaving a big curtain over existentence…by existence there is no religion at all ..all religions are created by man ….rather we can say it is not that god created man , it is man who created GOD,I have written god in capital letters beccause of conditioning that god should be written in capital letters ….see just the impact of our conditionings….....

Mr.Progression; In a truely Islamic society women have the following rights in Islam:

1. The right and duty to obtain education.

2. The right to have their own independent property.

3. The right to work to earn money if they need it or want it.

4. Equality of reward for equal deeds.

5. The right to express their opinion and be heard.

6. The right to provisions from the husband for all her needs and more.

7. The right to negotiate marriage terms of her choice.

8. The right to obtain divorce from her husband, even on the grounds that she simply can't stand him. (pls note that God deeply frowns upon divorce as a solution unless there is hardly any other alternative but it does not mean that men have more right to divorce their wives than women do.)

9. The right to keep all her own money (she is not responsible to maintain any relations).

10. The right to get sexual satisfaction from her husband.

11. custody of their children after divorce.

12. to refuse any marriage that does not please them

and more…

Here is an article taken from a speech which details some of these rights: Ideals and role models for women in Islam

caytee, Islam is the religion of peace,freedom,love….etc.it's the religion that respects the woman and her rights,rather than other faith.

n if u think that freedom is to go where u want (bars and disco…)or by reaching 18years old and then…......no need to tell about the results for u know where the total freedom leads to.. forgive me,but this is not a freedom but the best antonym  of freedom if u think well.

I don't see women in islamic world (read: arabian world) have the right in political positions.

I don't see islamic women can say NO if their husband decided to take the second wife, or the third, or the fourth.

I don't see islamic women can wear anything they like in public. I read a great book from a journalist about this moslem women (I dont have to mention the location) who wear burkha outside but they wear thong and red high heels inside of it. it means: they want to wear it but the society forbid them to. (ps: if you don't know what a thong is, google it..:D)

me? I made my own rules :)
