[QUOTE="naben, post: 166920, member: 17397"] [URL="http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/members/ishna.html"][COLOR=green][B]Ishna[/B][/COLOR][/URL] Thank you This wonderful illustration Respected members and For further clarification The status of women in Islam is often the target of attacks in the secular media. The ‘hijaab’ or the Islamic dress is cited by many as an example of the ‘subjugation’ of women under Islamic law. Before we analyze the reasoning behind the religiously mandated ‘hijaab’, let us first study the status of women in societies before the advent of Islam. [/FONT] 1. In the past women were degraded and used as objects of lust The following examples from history amply illustrate the fact that the status of women in earlier civilizations was very low to the extent that they were denied basic human dignity: 1. Babylonian Civilization: The women were degraded and were denied all rights under the Babylonian law. If a man murdered a woman, instead of him being punished, his wife was put to death. 2. Greek Civilization: Greek Civilization is considered the most glorious of all ancient civilizations. Under this very ‘glorious’ system, women were deprived of all rights and were looked down upon. In Greek mythology, an ‘imaginary woman’ called ‘Pandora’ is the root cause of misfortune of human beings. The Greeks considered women to be subhuman and inferior to men. Though chastity of women was precious, and women were held in high esteem, the Greeks were later overwhelmed by ego and sexual perversions. Prostitution became a regular practice amongst all classes of Greek society. 3. Roman Civilization: When Roman Civilization was at the zenith of its ‘glory’, a man even had the right to take the life of his wife. Prostitution and nudity were common amongst the Romans. 4. Egyptian Civilization: The Egyptian considered women evil and as a sign of a devil. 5. Pre-Islamic Arabia: Before Islam spread in Arabia, the Arabs looked down upon women and very often when a female child was born, she was buried alive. 2. Islam uplifted women and gave them equality and expects them to maintain their status Islam uplifted the status of women and granted them their just rights 1400 years ago. Islam expects women to maintain their status. [/FONT]In the Bible, also: Jesus did not prohibit polygamy, 2 Chronicles 13:21 (BLB) Abijah waxed great, and married 14 wives, and begat twenty and two sons and daughters 16. 2 Chronicles 11:21 (BLB) I like Rehoboam Maacah daughter of Absalom above all his wives and concubines for him, because he took 18 wives and concubines 60, was born twenty and eight sons and daughters 60. For the Prophet Sulaiman [Solomon], and I think you know without martyrdom, had hundreds of wives and concubines hundreds. After these things known until Ibrahim ... And his concubine, whose name also carries a good Reumah of, Gaham, Thahash and Maacah. And the sons of concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he was living until now, the east, even in the East (Genesis 25:6) How about Sarah and told Abraham to go to the concubine Hagar, as you know, probably emigrated did not want to. It was then you know what happened, she left in the desert. Remember God is God of Abraham, as a concubine and her child, but that it was. Again, do not place Jesus may Allah be pleased with him, did not prevent polygamy, but Islam limit the number of wives to four Islamic law is clear and convincing illustrate the great truth of Islam Study of Islam is different already heard from the media Feel that there is someone fool you And wants to walk away from the truth allah guided you [/QUOTE]
