Forgive my absolute ignorance here, but since Islam is NOT a democratic system, what are muslims supposed to be voting on?

Hi, you can check: khilafah dot com

During the Middle Ages Islam gave more rights to women than Christian Europe did. Things have changed a lot since the golden era of Islam.....I don't necessarily blame muslims though. The West forced them into fundamentalism because it was the Europeans who invaded and exploited muslim lands.

[IslamForWomen]

Agreed. Still women are not sold out for their physical attributes in Muslim Majority countries. They are not used for porn websites, nor they are used on erotic massage parlours. They do not walk down naked on the road nor do you find them drunk and pee in the street in the midnight.

[IslamForWomen]

But yes, Muslim majority countries have their evil establishments which are supported by America and they do no development in terms of infstrastruction and education.

Truth about Woman

Woman is more respectable than man, as woman gave birth to all prophets & Saints of Allah and woman is the FIRST the KINDEST teacher of Humanity. All human society is in debit of Woman; the most beautiful creation on planet. With out woman this world will be worse than a dry desert. Woman is mother under whom feet is Pradise, woman is sister who has the purest love for his brother, woman is wife with out which man is animal.

(Pls note that I am a man)

[GermanConquistador08]

What are you talking about. Women aren't better than men. Men and women are the same, a few good ones A WHOLE LOT of bad ones. That kind of talk stems from guilt. I personally do not support womens rights, not because I don't think women couldn't handle the military or other manuel labor jobs, I think they are far too vauable. Women are the gender that can produce more of the species, thus we need to make sure they are safe. But yeah I agree compeltly with what this women is saying.

[howdyadoo]

sorry my friend men and women are equally respected. no1 is better than the other based on gender.

[BeAMuslim]

Women were given rights to Vote less than a 100 years ago in the (US), while the Koran gave women voting rights almost 1,500 years ago.

Count President Megawati in. She was elected as the first woman for President for Republic Indonesia, regardless of the many propaganda made by some Muslims and non-Muslims that believed in male superiority. These groups failed to recognize the context and reasons in electing a leader was not based on gender but on the qualities of a leadership required.
