Join the halaqa and take part in this discussion about the Islamic perspective of women and the many related issues. In the mountains of Northern New Mexico at the world famous Abiquiu Madressah, Hamza Yusuf answers many of the common questions about Muslim women such as the degree of men over women, the hijab, rights and roles, the concept of deficiency in women, and the hadith about women in Hell. Part of the widely popular Deen Intensive program, this session is an opportunity to see a unique side of Imam Hamza within the context of an informal and interactive study group. Other topics discussed: the breakdown of the family in the West, the man's weakness for the woman, men and women shaking hands, cultural norms vs. shari'ah, a woman's right to her own living space, participating in politics, following laws that contradict the shari'ah, paying taxes, and the idea of putting your parents in retirement homes. (Duration: 2 hours, 1 min)

  • My God! What an informative Chanel! May Allah reward you for it

  • @BoredToDistraction I've heard many tall tales before, but this one is completely new to me. Please provide a quote from an AUTHENTIC Islamic source to verify this story. And please don't copy-and-paste from some right-wing agenda-driven website. Go to the source and read it for yourself. Then share the data with me, including exact volume, chapter and verse numbers.

  • @MrChavre You hit the nail on the head: "extremists"... that's the real monster. Extreme interpretations of the Qur'an and hadith literature is the problem which results in a practice that justifiably "belongs in a cave".

  • @MrChavre Islamic scholars,Leaders and their Islamist cohorts will continue to push for sha'ria untill it is established,fortunately most of us will not live to see it in Britain.You can not separate to two Islamism has its own political system it is part and parcel to that particular religious cult.

  • @MrChavre

    It's an integral part of Islam you goon.

    I see you're removing my comments from your channel.

    Are you still mourning the passing of Kim Jong-il?

  • @MrChavre If shari'ah is dead, the Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams would have never said this in 2008: "There's a place for finding what would be a constructive accommodation with some aspects of Muslim law" and that shari'ah law in the UK "seems unavoidable". Although I highly doubt you'll watch it, the video on our channel called "Can Shari'ah Be Accommodated in the West?" elaborates on his points.
