    Funny that muslim men can marry whoever they want from any other religion but not muslim women!
    Patriarchal, exclusive, politicised religion became: it's men and how they can twist anything to their advantage🥴

      They can't. Stop with the lies. They were only allowed to marry ancient jews & christians who actually believed in Allah. They are not the same as jews & christian of today. So NO! Muslim marry only Muslim if they are actually practicing their religion

      @@brokenbrad6182 so what? Multiple wives with 1 husbands work better than the other way around.
      In nature how would you figure out the father of the kids if there are multiple husbands?
      Population increase was a huge thing in the past. A family with multiple women can produce more children than a family with 1 woman and multiple men.
      Men and polygamous by nature, as are males in most mammals. Women are hypergamous and in nature want men that can lead. So how can a family unit have multiple husbands (multiple leaders)? Where do you see multiple managers at the same level being responsible for the same things?

    Every religion is subjective. Men have dominated the interpretation of the Islamic Holy scripture and hence they have rigged the messages of Islam. Women’s interpretation of Islamic texts is needed so that true balance is achieved in the religion’s messages.
    Islam is not unique in perpetuating misogyny. Every other religion does this. Hint: it’s male subjectiveness that ruins religions, not the text itself.

      Interesting. In what ways are religions subjective? Many claim there are not. Many of them claim objective truth and there teachings clearly show this regardless of who reads the. That assumes that one is reading within context of course. So how did you come to this conclusion that all religions are subjective? Can you provided evidence that states that every religion is subjective? Does this mean that your opinion is also subjective?

      Men are caretakers of women, since Allah has made some of them excel the others, and because of the wealth they have spent. So, the righteous women are obedient, (and) guard (the property and honor of their husbands) in (their) absence with the protection given by Allah. As for women of whom you fear rebellion, convince them, and leave them apart in beds, and beat them. Quran 4:34

    1. Muslim women cannot marry a non muslims because the child of that marriage will be on the religion of the father, which would end up making the kid a non-muslim.
    2. Muslim Women cannot get divorce in islam because divorce in islam is taken very serious. Even if the words of divorce are said out of anger or by mistake, the divorce would happen. Women are often more emotional than men (Proven by science) and it is possible that women say words of divorce (even mistakenly) over small things. There are many researches done that proves that women initiate divorce more often than men. Marriage is considered a very great blessing in islam.
    3. Even though a muslim women cannot ask her husband for divorce she can still get one by going to the local imaam/scholor and telling him why she wants to get separated in her marriage (abuse, her rights not being fulfilled, etc).
    4. Polygamy is not for everyone. A muslim man can only marry another women if his wife agrees and the man can treat both women equally (love, money, etc) and fulfill both of their rights. We see men who are married going out with other women and for some reason that is ok, but getting married to 2 women and treating both of them with respect and honour is not allowed. What a world we live in.
    5. If a women is being abused by her husband, she can go to the imaam and the imaam will try to work it out between the two. If she doesn't feel safe then the imaam will break the marriage.
    Just a simple bit of research will show you that this women is trying to show islam as a religion that is against women rights. Islam shows women more honour and respect than any religion and if you were to look at the life of the prophet muhammed (peace be upon him), you would see that the value of women, especially Mothers are insane.
    Fun Fact: Before islam, women were treated like dirt and girls would be buried alive by the arabs. Islam came and stopped that and gave the women rights and honour.

      @Mai Ferdous These rules were set by god. No man just decided to put these rules for women. If you were to read the Islamic laws that are special for women, You will see that it does not oppress women. Prophets were sent to show us the way of life. We have been taught to treat women with respect and honor. There some rules witch apply to women but not men but you must remember god has wisdom behind these rules.
