      @NorCal Rider oh they have something like that. It's called Sharia. The pursuit of happiness applys more to men while women are seen as property. Even in the afterlife women automatically get their virginity back and have to be one of 72 virgins that serve a man. That is if you make it to heaven.. there are allot of sins in Islam.

      Muhammad, their prophet, married a 6 year old.
      He "Thighed" her until she was 9.
      At that point she was deemed a "woman" and he consummated the marriage.
      There is a ceremony performed for Muslim girls at age 9 (enmasse if numerous) where they are pronounced publicly to be women.
      At this point they can be sold off for marriage. Used to pay a debt most likely.
      It can be Uncles, or other close family members.
      Sharia Law is barbaric.

      Rach_xx. Well, what could I say to you to explain and put into words all that insanity and irrational madness invading the entire 🌎 world these day. Could someone explain the amazing power of some expansionist military-politic Ideology powered and fueled by religion ?! ..That is what Islam is all about; its goal of globally dominance is the main theme and core belief in the whole Qur'an and avery single Muslim believer is encouraged and motivated to get that job done, through the teachings of the Qur'an itself. There's a sad and a trgic side in all that. The sad side is that the liberal media and liberal-progressive-left leaning people, together wit the Socialist Democrat party with their liberal value system agenda, have come to be very helpful hand for the aggressive expansionist ideology in Islam. If you see what liberals stand for; pro diversity, pro 'equality', pro globalism, pro open-borders: all that stuff is CLEARLY helping the Islamic world purposes. The sad thing is ..they WILL prevail; they will have that done. The Bible being a prophetic book propheticed that some global government under one person will be rule the entire world. That prophecy is in Revelation, the last book in the Bible. That leader will be so barbaric and brutal that Adolf Hitler would pass like angel beside him. That man will identify all people in the forehead or arm: without that ID you can't buy or sell; ISIS and Islamic Shariah Law fits PERFECTLY that kind of global government. So being a born Christian myself, I firmly believe that we are, no only in dangerous days, but also we are witnessing the Bible prophecies being fulfilled in front of our very eyes. I also believe, as born again Christian, and according the the Bible promises; I'll no be here when that happens: thanks God for that !

      Really, what would you do? Go over there and give him a piece of your mind? Go over there and beat him up? Or maybe call the police? Personally, I don't think all men in that country treat their wives that way.and the truth of the matter is, no matter what the culture, women have one thing that gives them power. And that's universal my friend. But then you're dealing with human emotion and love and hate. And both men and women manipulative and cruel. There are men as well as women who will walk all over someone that treats them right and worship the ground of someone that treats them like shit. I think there must be some kind of correlation between relation power dynamics, sexual tension and sexual excitement that draws these types to each other. I've seen it too many times here in the states with American people. Watching people trapped in this cycle is like watching a movie and you hope you don't get cast in the movie. Nine times out of ten the abused ends up going back

Maybe you already know the truth but you are misguided, Allah says in the quran : فِى قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ فَزَادَهُمُ اللَّهُ مَرَضًا وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَكْذِبُونَ , english : “In their hearts is disease, so Allah has increased their disease; and for them is a painful punishment because they [habitually] used to lie.” explanation : A disease in the religion, not a physical disease. They are the hypocrites and the disease is the doubt that they brought to Islam. ‘And Allah has increased their disease’ means, increased them in their shameful behavior.”
      Here, Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala tells us another trait of the hypocrites (munafiqeen) that their hearts are full of desires, worldly plans, and doubts about Deen. Their disease of lust has been increased because they did not worry about it or sought treatment for it. they plan but Allah is the best of planners. here is a free quick and correct lesson on islam for you.

      This is today but if we look back then this was a naturall thing to do because you had to mature earlier because of that times way of life,, a 14 year old could be master of hes house then,,if you look att history youl see that upp untill late 1800 ppl in europe (christians) was marrying at the age off 8,, even today you find places like some states in usa where marriage is permissable att the age of 12...
      you find places in africa where they cut the woman clitoris (christian country).
      early 1900 women couldnt be a priest.
      today a gay man can be preast
      early 1900 women in all europe had veils around their head,,today only nuns has it..
      As time changes so does also ppl and their moral compas.
      when it commes to muhammad,,some text says she was 9,, some says she was 18 and some say that she was a young woman but funny enough generally speaking christians seams to be stuck in the 6 year ols aisha but forgets that mary the mother of jesus was raped by god the father and the holy ghost when she was 10 and married to joseph ( 90 ) when she was 11 and was pregnant.

    Many people in the comment section need to get off their high horse looking at things through a modern western lens. In western countries girls were married off really young until around the 1950s. Don't act as if Europeans haven't gone through this through history. I am not defending this, i am saying put it all into context. their culture is also evolving, just at a different pace and etc. Things are changing. And stop blaming islam ( I am not a muslim), as if Christianity has a clean record through out history. Lets seek to understand and be objective not be abrupt in our judgement. It takes time and effort for beliefs and attitudes to change.

I will not speak poorly on Islam because I think everyone in the west thinks that Islam the religion is evil and that just isn't true. True Muslims are God fearing peaceful people. And no I am not a Muslim, nor am I religious. I believe in spirituality not organized religion.

If it is culture then whos culture is it? aint our culture, we Persians didnt do shit like this. was only after it became an islamic state that it became like this so whos culture is it now?
      Here is the verse from the shit book quran: "Quran (2:282) - Establishes that a woman's testimony is worth only half that of a man's in court"

    An uncle (probably from ex-husband side): "The way you talk! Mind your language!"
    Ziba: 'I have no money to give!" Very funny!
    Ex husband: "I've been damaged too"
    Ziba: "Don't talk nonsense. What damage?"
    Ex husband: "A billion won't buy back my good name"
    Ziba's Uncle: "I'd give you a billion if you could give her back to her father a virgin. Be careful what you say!"
    Ex husband: "So I came here to pay...."
    Ziba's uncle: "No, I mean be careful what you say"

    A few positives: the country has a court; the court seems to be running more or less effectively; husbands cannot get away with assaulting their wives by the sound of it; the court makes sure the family and the wife are provided for (by the husband paying maintenance); the court considers the children's proper upbringing more or less; there are female clerks in the court house working alongside their male colleagues; everyone seems to be heard before a ruling is made.
    Curious to know how the courts are run after 22 years since this documentary was made.

      KEAHI THE FIERY ONE. We can't blame court of law judges, for injustice, in Muslim societies. They're just doing their job: applying Islamic law. Islamic law is unfair toward married women. The lack of women rights in Islam is deeply engrained in their culture and reinforced in their religion. How Muslim women life status could be improved if the Quran consider them 2nd class citizens servants without voice; always sombody else take decision for them: the father, uncles, brothers, husband or even their son: servants for life. 😏
