Islam and women’s rights

Islam and women’s rights

Day after day, events prove that the talk of change, freedom, dignity and revolution has no credibility in the absence of full commitment to the abolition of the concept of a woman needing a man’s permission in all matters. Such talk has no credibility absent the full endorsement of the idea of complete equality in rights, duties, and freedom from restrictions developed by humans in the name of tradition and religion to satisfy latent whims born of obsession with power, money and sex. The majority of Takfiri (Puritanical) teachings are manifested in the emphasis on control over base instincts, the burying of wisdom and rationality, and returning not to the past, but to the law of the jungle.
