Koran interpreted by Sheikh Abd al Hamid Kishk

Scene from 'Daughters of the Nile', a documentary by directors Hillie Molenaar & Joop van Wijk. If your interested in the full high resolution version, please visit www.docsonline.tv, select 'search title' and type 'daughters'.

Although DAUGHTERS OF THE NILE was made in 1982, the film hasn't lost any of its current interest. It offers a unique insight into a segment of Egyptian society that has hardly changed over the years. The lives of women in Egypt can still be very limiting, with all aspects of their existence spelled out by the teachings of the Koran. With little voice in their education, or marriage, they must accept the unbending rules of their society. Daughters of the Nile offers a unique account of their day-to-day living, married to men chosen by their fathers.

@ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED "U keep insulting and because I Muslim, I won't insult you!"

Didn't you accuse me of being a JEW?

Is that a sign of RESPECT in islam to call someone you don't know a JEW?

"Because all Sexually Transmitted Diseases come from the mix of different semen that's why ur mum doesn't have aids because she has 1 man!"

Not only did you insult me again, but you insulted yourself with that stupid remark.

It's great that you are not a doctor.

@ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED "The chapter called Women NOT Cows!"

Well there IS a chapter called COW. So having a chapter is not a sign of respect.

"and a witness of 8 women or 4 men is a MUST"

So women is islam are basically MUCH MORE STUPID than men.

1 man equals 2 women in islam.

So can you be specific as to what rights they have?

For example the right to VOTE or free speech.

Those are 2 rights.

[ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED]

The chapter called Women NOT Cows! In Islam women should get all the luxury they deserve provided by their husbands! i.e. travel expenses, food, holiday, basically their salary and bonuses should go into their account without having to go out and work for it. Also they should get all the respect and never abuse them and a witness of 8 women or 4 men is a MUST if someone accuse a woman of adultry!Because if you treat them best,u will have best generation of kids brought up by good mother

[ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED]

Now I think ur not a Jew, because Jews a clever! If women were taken as slaves 1400 yrs ago, that doesn't mean that some women were QUEENS or Mega rich! That explains that our prophet's 1st wife was rich! U keep insulting and because I Muslim, I won't insult you! U keep ur religion and I keep mine! U asked why women in Islam are not allowed to sleep with 4men! Because all Sexually Transmitted Diseases come from the mix of different semen that's why ur mum doesn't have aids because she has 1 man!

@ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED "women's right in Islam are too many"

Please name 2 rights. Can you be specific and NAME just 2 of the "many"?

"he said please do your best to look after women"

About women he said "'Your lack of common sense can be determined from the fact that the evidence of two women is equal to one man. That is a proof.'""

He also said; ""A man will not be asked as to why he beat his wife.""

"a whole chapter called 'Women'"

There is a chapter on COWS, does that mean cows = women?

@ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED "1400 yrs ago it was normal for a woman to be slave,"

How come the profit's 1st wife owned a business and was MORE powerful than him?

" I am not a crook of $hit!"

You underestimate yourself, you are full of shit!

You say islam gave freedom to woman, can they marry ANYONE they wish?

Can they have as many husbands as men have wives?

Can you be SPECIFIC as to those rights islam gave?

"u r a Jew"

I will not deny it so it will drive you crazy, but as usual you're wrong.

[ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED]

1400 yrs ago it was normal for a woman to be slave, Islam asked every Muslim to free them!! In fact until the dark ages in Europe, women were still slaves, while Muslim women enjoyed freedom since Islam arrived! I am not a crook of $hit!! I don't why every Jewish always use this expression!! But I am not surprised, Almighty God warned us, I know you will deny that u r a Jew!

[ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED]

Simple question! women's right in Islam are too many, regardless of people are following it or not!! Almighty Allah and our Prophet Mohamed asked us to follow it, in fact he said please do your best to look after women, that was the last advice he gave us at his last breath when he died! In fact, Almighty Allah, has never sent a chapter in our holly book called 'Men' BUT he sent down a whole chapter called 'Women' explains about their rights!! I can't fit them all, but simply men provide 4them

@ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED

Maybe english isn't your best language because I have no idea what you are talking about.

I'll make it simple since you seem like a muslim.

What rights did islam give women?

Can you name them?

[ASKMYSELFB4AMASKED]

r u saying if you ask ur Mum which is better to stay at home and do what you want for the same salary you are receiving right now she will say no?! I think she will ask you which religion is this and she will revert to Islam!! Please ask your sister and your gf 2!! Everyone of them would love to do this! Go on holiday and get the same salary while they are staying at home!! In fact you would want 2b a woman receive those benefits!!
