New low for Islam

welcome to a2k.

Wow, that is a new low, whats with all these rules against women in islam?

Welcomed since 2004. I should make that my signiture, haha.

But yea, all the rules are in Qur'an (their holy text), except for this one.

This is Wahhabism, a very virulent and intolerant form of Islam. It seems to be quite prevalent in Saudi Arabia and was probably the form of Islam practised by the Taleban.

In the catalogue of appalling things done to women in the name of Islam, this one is pretty low on the list.

What was that other Islam post ... "why is islam the fastest growing religion / why do people join islam?" Why does anyone join a cult, or a street gang?

I really love people of all kinds, from anywhere and everywhere, and their uniqueness and differences...its 'groups' of people I really learn to dislike, islam being one of them. I don't care how they package it or present it or explain it.

But since I don't really care, I've never taken the time to pursue an answer to a question I know has been asked here before: 'What does the female martyr get when she passes on from this world?' Does she get 72 male virgins and lots of wine? Or is she repackaged as a 'virgin' to be one of the 72 virgins presented to a male martyr?

Just curious.

Assuming no more than 2 conjugal visits a day, equally distributed, perhaps it is a blessing for a Muslim woman to have to be with her mate only once a month or so.
