Why Doesn’T Islam Educate Its Men?

[naomi24]

Two items in the news this week that, once again, highlight Islam’s archaic attitudes towards women and its continuing tolerance of the failings of men. First, the appalling story of the Saudi cleric who brutally raped and murdered his five year old daughter – and was excused with a fine - and second, the instance of another Saudi cleric who says that all female babies should be hidden under burkas in order to ward off sex attacks.

Islam’s stance appears to be that, faced with temptation, men are helpless victims, and its solution, therefore, is to remove that temptation by hiding females from view. Rather than requiring men to accept full responsibility for their own licentious and inexcusable behaviour, isn’t it time that Islam stopped justifying the subjugation of women by acknowledging that the fault rests not with the female, but with its own attitudes towards them?

Is true. In Arabic countries the woman is something to be hidden at home, her rights are obey her husband, take care of children and be quiet. But something is changing, my sister's in law from Irak are the ones who command and the only right of their husbands is say yes and bring the money.
