  • Muslims have a very bad attitude to homosexuality, they're very intolerant … And women. For them women are second class citizens. What we are witnessing now is a clash of civilisations, not just between states but within them.
  • Islamic apologists in the West argue furiously that child marriage has nothing to do with Islam, and that the idea that Muhammad married a child is the invention of greasy Islamophobes. In reality, few things are more abundantly attested in Islamic law than the permissibility of child marriage.

Hustmyre quote is from a non-notable source and is more relevant to Left-wing politics page. Spencer quote is irrelevant to the topic; no mention on women in Islam. Xsaorapa (talk) 10:26, 20 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

[edit]

Hi,

I came across this promising w:Draft:Hermeneutics of feminism in Islam (relating to women's rights) and myself supported the same editorially too. IMO since topic potential is vast many Reliable sources on Google scholar seem to be available hence the article needs more editorial hands for some more update and expansion along with appropriate references.

Pl. do join to update and expansion, your help will be most welcome.

Thanks and regards

  • "And take in your hand a green branch and beat her with it, and do not break your oath..."
    • Quran (38:44

This link [1] may have further information on this quote.

That is not a reliable source and cites a Bible verse, which has nothing to do with the Quran. I think that this and all the similar pages on Islam need to be checked and cleaned due POV. Rupert Loup 15:50, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

  • In his Counsel for Kings, Al-GhazzAlI (A.D. 1058-1111), a famous Arab divine of his time, says that “Allah, He be praised, punished women with eighteen things”: (1) menstruation; (2) childbirth; (3) separation from parents and marriage to a stranger; (4) pregnancy; (5) not having control over her own person; (6) a lesser share in inheritance; (7) her liability to be divorced and inability to divorce; (8) its being lawful for men to have four wives, but for a woman to have only one husband; (9) the fact that she must stay secluded in the house; (10) the fact that she must keep her head covered inside the house; (11) the fact that two women’s testimony has to be set against the testimony of one man; (12) the fact that she must not go out of the house unless accompanied by a near relative; (13) the fact that men take part in Friday and feast day prayers and funerals while women do not; (14) disqualification for rulership and judgeship; (15) the fact that merit has one thousand components, only one of which is attributable to women, while nine hundred and ninety-nine are attributable to men; (16) the fact that if women are profligate they will be given only half as much torment as the rest of the community at the Resurrection Day; (17) the fact that if their husbands die they must observe a waiting period of four months and ten days before remarrying; (18) the fact that if their husbands divorce them they must observe a waiting period of three months or three menstrual periods before remarrying.
