Re: Islam is not same as christianity
Quote:In fact, your articles suggest to me that Islam is better than Christianity. Granted, I am well aware that during the medieval ages, Muslims were far more enlightened than Christians (especially in medicine) but when it comes to women's rights, Islam is no more oppressive (according to these articles anyway) than Christianity and no less oppressive either.
Yeah I agree to disagree with you,
Islam is NEVER like Christianity coz of the way we deal with WOMEN.Islam is more lenient on women than christianity.It gives more rights than christianity whether it was medieval age or now.
See The difference...for yourself.
Quote:1. The Bible Convicts Women as the original Sinners (ie. Eve picking from the forbidden tree){Genesis 2:4-3:24}.
The Koran Clarifies it was Adam Not Eve {Koran 7:19-25}
Quote:2. The Bible says "The Birth of a Daughter is a loss" {Ecclesiasticus 22:3}.
The Koran says both are an Equal Blessing {Koran 42:49}
Quote:3. The Bible forbids women from speaking in church {I Corinthians 14:34-35}.
The Koran says women can argue with the Prophet {58:1}
Quote:4. In the Bible, divorced Women are Labeled as an Adulteress, not men {Matthew 5:31-32}
The Koran does Not have Biblical double standards{Koran 30:21}
Quote:5. In The Bible, widows and sisters do not inherit Any property or wealth, only men do {Numbers 27:1-11}
The Koran abolished this male greed {Koran 4:22} and God protects all.
Quote:6. The Bible Allows Multiple Wives {I Kings 11:3}
In The Koran, God limits the number to 4 only under certain situations (with the wife's permission)and prefers you marry only one wife {Koran 4:3}
The Koran gives the woman the right to choose who to marry.
7. "If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, he shall pay the girl's father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the girl, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives" {Deuteronomy 22:28-30}
One must ask a simple question here, who is really punished, the man who raped the woman or the woman who was raped? According to the Bible, you have to spend the rest of your life with the man who raped you.
Quote:The Prophet Muhammad Says {Volume 9, Book 86, Number 101} Narrated by Aisha:"It is essential to have the consent of a virgin (for the marriage)".
Would the Non-Muslim men reading this prefer the Women they know to be Christian or Muslim?
Quote:8. The Bible also asks women to wear veils as in Islam {I Corinthians 11:3-10}
Quote:9. Women were given rights to Vote less than a 100 years ago in the (US), while the Koran gave women voting rights almost 1,500 years ago
.
I think this is why
