Misconceptions About Islam
By. Asma Basheer
Why is a man allowed to have
more than one wife in Islam?
“Marry women of your choice, two, or three, or four; but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one.”[Al-Qur’an 4:3]
Does Islam encourage polygamy?
Islam merely allows it, but does not encourage it.
He must achieve a perfect balance between his wives
Same accomodation
Same time…
Same financial support
But the question remains, even
after these restrictions and
conditions,
why does Islam allow men to
marry more than one woman?
1. Islam recognizes that men have a stronger drive to have multiple partners than women
3.affairs do happen, though they happen secretly
, Islam regards polygamy as being preferable to adultery.
Polygamy protects the rights of women by giving them the full rights of a wife. Instead of being a secret "mistress" involved in an affair with a man
2.men will want to have children
that the wife is not able to have children.
4... Another situation to consider is a man whose wife becomes seriously ill
This helped in solving the problem of providing care and protection to widows and their children in peace
to grant a divorced woman an honourable status in the society.
Why is the eating of pork forbidden in Islam?
Why does Islam degrade women by keeping them
behind the veil?
O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to
bring down over themselves [part] of their outer
garments. That is more suitable that they will be
known and not be abused. And Allah is ever Forgiving
and Merciful. Al Quran
Whom they will look and tease?
Hijab prevents molestation
Hijab prevents molestation
Every 2 minutes, someone in the U.S. is sexually assaulted
From W
ikipedia,
the free encyclopedia
Nearly 90,000 people reported being raped in the United States in 2008.
Sexual Offending in England and Wales.
Approximately 85,000 women are raped every year
Over 400,000 women are sexually assaulted each year
1 in 5 women (aged 16 - 59) has experienced some form of sexual violence
ROBBERY…Chopping off the hands as punishment
Islam the Barbaric Religion?
RAPE…The punishment thereto is death by execution.
If the patient has gangrene in his finger….Should not we chop it off?Is this barbarism?Do you call a doctor is barbaric?....noSame way…..islamic law chops off a hand, it does so because this hand is criminal. It was chopped off so that the society would be safe.
when the punishment is harsh, society remain safe.
. Implementation of Islamic Shariah will reduce the rate of
rapes
SUPPOSE, GOD FORBID, SOMEONE RAPES YOUR WIFE,YOUR MOTHER OR YOUR SISTER. YOU ARE MADE THE JUDGE AND THE RAPIST IS BROUGHT INFRONT OF YOU. WHAT PUNISHMENT WOULD YOU GIVE HIM? ALL OF THEM SAID THEY WOULDPUT HIM TO DEATH. SOME WENT TO THE EXTENT OF SAYING THEY WOULD TORTURE HIM TODEATH. TO THEM I ASK, IF SOMEONE RAPES YOUR WIFE OR YOUR MOTHER YOU WANT TO PUTHIM TO DEATH. BUT IF THE SAME CRIME IS COMMITTED ON SOMEBODY ELSE’S WIFE ORDAUGHTER YOU SAY CAPITAL PUNISHMENT IS BARBARIC. WHY SHOULD THERE BE DOUBLESTANDARDS?
, if someone rapes your wife or your mother you want to put him to death.
But if the same crime is committed on somebody else’s wife ordaughter you say capital punishment is
barbaric.
Why should there be double standards?
