Fear
the company of women—they bring bad luck
Sahih Bukhari
Women, house and horses are evil omens...7.62.30, 31,
32
The evil omens are: the horse, the women and the
house...4.52.110, 111
Malik’s Muwatta
A woman, a horse and a house bring bad
luck…54.8.21, 22
Sahih Muslim
Women are more harmful to men than anything
else…36.6603, 6604
Ghazali
Muhammad said, “There will remain no greater
danger for the people after my death than women. Fear the world of
women.”…(volume 3, p.86)
Muhammad said,” A woman is the string of the
devil.”…(volume 3, p.87)
Women
have very little intelligence—their own testimony is inadmissible in
rape cases; in other matters their testimony is half to that of a man
Qur’an
Confinement till death for lewdness by women four
believing male witnesses are required to prove a woman’s innocence...
4:15
Write the contract; women witness is half of
men...2:282
Sunaan Abu
Dawud
Defect
of reason in women are: testimony of two women for one man; defect of
faith in women, no fasting during Ramadan…3.40.4662
“‘Abd
Allah b. Umar reported the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) as
saying: I did not see more defective in respect of reason and religion
than the wise of you (women). A woman asked: What is the defect of reason
and religion? He replied: The defect of reason is the testimony of two
women for one man, and the defect of faith is that one of you does not
fast during Ramadan (when one is menstruating), and keep away from prayer
for some days.”
Women
are less human—they get one-third of blood money, no booty (for Jihad)
for them
Malik’s
Muwatta
The blood money for a woman is one-third of the blood
money for a man; she can be given up to half of the blood money of a
man…43.6.4b
Sahih Muslim
Women Jihadiststs do not get booties except that they
get a prize for participating in a jihad. …19.4458
Women
are worse than dead persons—they cannot follow a bier
Sahih Muslim
Women cannot follow the bier…4.2039
Men
should always oppose women
Ghazali
Hazrat Umar said, “Act opposite to women as there
is reward in opposing them.”…(volume 2, p.34)
Women
are easily expendable—a divorced woman gets no maintenance or alimony
from her ex-husband
Sahih Muslim
No lodging and maintenance for an irrevocably
divorced woman; Muhammad asked one such woman to be lodged with a blind
man, Ibn Umm Maktum…9.3519, 3522, 3530
A
woman has the right to stay at home solely to provide sex to her husband
Hedaya
The woman’s stay at home is solely for sex—(p.54)
“On the other hand the husband has no power to
restrain his wife from going on a journey, or from going abroad, or
visiting her friends, until such time as shall have discharged the whole
of the Mihr Moajil, or prompt dower, because a husband’s right to
confine his wife at home is solely for the sake of securing to himself the
enjoyment of her person, and his right to such enjoyment does not exist
until after the payment of the return for it.”
A
woman becomes a harlot when she wears perfume
Mishkat al-Masabih
If a woman uses perfume she is an
adulteress…(volume 2, p.255)
Abu Musa reported Allah’s messenger (peace and
blessings of Allah be upon him) as saying: Every eye is lustful and when a
woman applies perfume and then goes about in an assembly she is like such
and such i.e., adulteress. (Hadis number 1065).
Conclusion:
If you are appalled by patiently reading what I diligently cited
from the most authentic Islamic sources please bear in mind that those
uncivilised Islamic provisions are not mere rhetoric or dead passages
buried in the incredibly unfathomed depth of Islamic epics. Those Islamic
requirements are living laws enacted in many Islamic Paradises, such as
Saudi Arabia
,
Sudan
,
Afghanistan
,
Pakistan
,
Iran
, certain parts of
Nigeria
and
Malaysia
. They are compulsory for all the Muslim women as well as for the infidel
women living (in some Islamic countries like
Saudi Arabia
) there. It is also feared that those barbaric Islamic customs may soon be
imposed upon the Iraqi women. Isn’t March 8th the most
appropriate time for all women in the world to raise their call to free
their Muslim sisters from such unimaginable, barbaric, medieval-age
tyranny? There is no dignity, no respect and no basic human rights for
women in the Muslim world. They are living in a world completely devoid of
reason, justice, equality of gender and human dignity. Shall we not do
something for these wretched, hapless women? Are we not living in a
civilised society?
