I honestly wonder how many Hollywood and pornographic films certain Muslims watch. Because they don't seem to trust their own daughters, sisters, mothers, nieces, or female cousins to be independent, out of the fear they might become the actresses in Hollywood or pornographic films ("whores of the west" (they're words)).
Muslim societies see women as 1) a sex object who cannot show herself and cannot appear in public without wearing Arabian clothes 2) Incapable and dependent: they need to be "protected" and policed because they lack the qualities to be on their own and be independent.
We NEED to see women as equal, we CANNOT put any restrictions on them. Muslim women should be allowed to make their OWN decisions, and live their OWN lives according to their wishes. More importantly, we CANNOT see them as being weak in their deen. We CANNOT make them feel as if they're being criminals in the eyes of Allah. Several patriarchal muslim countries have the view women will become prostitutes, sluts, or have boyfriends if they aren't burka covered housewives, or if they don't have close male relatives with them when they go out. Because like I have said many times, culture influences peoples views on Islam. So contradicting culture or the ulema from that culture does NOT MEAN they're misguided.
We need to stop judging, stop being suspicious, and stop being paranoid of muslim women if we see them with a man who isn't related to her (or maybe he is). We also cannot spy on them to see if they do things that confirm our suspicions or paranoia. Many men and women have co-workers, colleagues, teachers/professors, patients, and doctors whom are of the opposite sex. It only becomes haraam when dating, flirting, or engaging in fornication arises.
I should add, flirting means engaging in types of talk that will lead to dating or fornication. Just because a laugh is shared, or acts of kindness, that doesn't count as flirting. I say this because muslim communities are engaging in massive paranoia about what flirting actually is.
We need to STOP targeting Muslim women. Muslim societies should STOP seeing women as baby making machines who should be hidden from public. Muslim societies should STOP expecting that from women. Many Muslim women don't cover their hair. Which unfortunately makes them prone to abuse and attacks.
"I think she has boyfriends", "I don't think she does her namaaz (prayers)", "I don't think she fasts during Ramadan", "She's trying so hard to be westernized". These rumors start spreading like wild fire in muslim communities and countries.
How come we don't see Hindus, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, or atheists target and harass women like how many muslim communities do???? How come females from other religions are getting bullied like how many muslim women have to go through??? How come men from Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, and Atheism aren't going after their women like rabid dogs, which is so prevalent in Muslim societies??
AND even if muslim women are engaging in fornication (I mean if they openly say it, or you actually witnessed it (seeing the penis in the vagina- I have to be specific because like I said before, anything is fornication/adultery nowadays according to backwards Muslims)), drinking alcohol, having boyfriends (I mean actually dating, and NOT what I mentioned in the third paragraph), and wearing revealing clothes (I don't mean showing her hair, I mean actually revealing and tight clothing that will get her kicked out of school), then it is between her and ALLAH, not between her and the vulgar language you are about the spew. By the way, all that activity is FAR MORE COMMON among Muslim males, but no one is going to target them.
Many of you white converts have serious issues with being just as bad as anti-Muslim bigots.
ReplyDeleteHere you throw around 'burka' (sic - an accurate transliteration is 'burqah', but your use of white supremacists'/anti-Muslims' specific spelling shows how you are still diseased by white arrogance) tropes about Muslim women and 'controlling Muslim men' defining all Muslim men. You throw shade on, and demonise, all of us non-white Muslims with your ugly, Enoch Powel-ish racist filth.
You are a white, anti-Muslim bigot, like many of you arrogant 'converts' are.
The biggest evidence of this?
Yoru complete silence on white men attacking and killing Muslim women, ripping off their hijabs, stabbing them, killing them, catcalling them, abusing them to the point Hijabiyaat are the most targeted Muslims there are by your kind - your filthy racist white brethren.
Instead, we 'Muslim men' treating our women like 'rabid dogs' are the problem.
Seriously, go to hell. Go back to your filthy, evil, rapist, colonialist white kind. Leave us Muslims the hell alone.
Yeah you are an idiot beyond beleif. And I have no idea where you got the idea that I'm a convert.
DeleteYou dont realize this but your comments prove a lot of your sick mentality.
Amen. Fucking faggot-loving white bigot fuckpigs.
ReplyDeleteI am a Muslim woman & I completely disagree with everything you say.
ReplyDeleteFirstly, women are allowed to be independent, to work outside. Did you forget about Khadijah [as]?
Secondly, your first paragraph is stupid. Have you went to prostitutes' accounts on Instagram? Haven't you seen the amount of women being bullied for being prostitutes? You are sick cuckold if you think prostitution is fine. You are totally disgusting... Many of the prostitutes arent happy with what they do but they do it so that they pay the bills or colleges etc, some of them even suicide. Make your daughter work as prostitute is you're fine with it. Just don't push your views down our throat. In the future InshaAllah, when I get older, be married and have children. I would want my daughters to become independent & be noblewomen instead of being used by men repeatedly. My paternal aunts are religious, they are completely independent married women. They travel alone, drive cars, build houses and so on. We live in an Islamic country, were women can drive and work and even educate herself and so on. Just because you saw sick countries like saudi etc it doesn't mean that it happens in all muslim countries.
@ "I think she has boyfriends", "I don't think she does her namaaz (prayers)", "I don't think she fasts during Ramadan", "She's trying so hard to be westernized".
This should be also applied on men, not just women. If men think women are cheap for not going through these lines then they, men, on the other hand are cheaper. They should also go through these lines they say. Allah forgives every person who repents and if a man dislikes so and so girl because of her sins then he should also hate himself for being a sick cuckold.
Your blog is honestly ridiculous
I don't think you realize that conservative Muslims and conservative Muslim scholars generally hold the view women should be housewives and not work. They say that Khadija worked before Islam was revealed.
DeleteUnfortunately, many Muslims do not hold the view women are allowed to be independent. If this were true she wouldn't need permission from her male guardians to do what she wants.
I never supported prostitution. I really don't know where you got this from. How am I am I forcing my views on anyone? Did I force this blog post on you? No you came voluntarily.
Yes, all of this should be applied to Muslim men as well. But the reality is, Muslim men are often off the hook, but Muslim women are constantly policed.
