Bayelsaowei I present your innocent women and children:

Flashback: A Palestinian mother from Gaza brought her sick son to an Israeli hospital for life-saving treatment, free of charge, from the very people she views as enemies.

In the interview (right there in the hospital), she openly says she'd rather he grow up to become a "martyr" (die in jihad/terrorism against Jews) than die from illness. She wants him healthy... so he can blow himself up in a crowded Israeli place, maybe even the same hospital that saved him.

She explains: Allah obligates every Muslim to wage jihad and embrace martyrdom. Unlike Jews and Christians who mourn dead children, Muslims rejoice when their kids are martyred in holy war, because Allah guarantees them paradise.

This isn't fringe. It's the raw ideology fueling the conflict: gratitude for mercy twisted into a desire for future violence.

Human life saved by Israelis, only to be sacrificed against them. That's the tragic, twisted reality.

Those who oppress women and practice gender apartheid under the dictates of the Quoran are in millions especially in the Middle East and Muslim dominated countries .... Stop using moderate Muslims in the west as the standard.

Secondly those who practice what the Quoran says about these matters can always accuse those who don't of not being true Muslims.
Muslim women in what we'd consider immoderate Islamic Iran are demonstrating on the street against the hijab. Do you believe they accept being beaten by their husbands?

Of course they would never.

The proper question is if the husbands accept the authority conferred on them to beat.

Those are not Muslim women, they are Parisians. You lie too much.

The Muslim women are shouting D to America and Israel and report to the dress code police when women don't cover up properly

That verse in the Quran is read and understood as you pressume by only stupid men. You know many Muslims who that verse may try to talk who would refuse to beat their wives. And you are admitting that women in even immoderate Islamic Iran wouldn't accept their men beating them despite, according to your understanding, the Quran says they can. Or is it, should?

You'd likely argue that bokoharam are Muslims too who are doing what the Quran has written in it telling them to do what they do, but you'd need to ignore all the other Muslims who do read the same Quran including those whom bokoharam terrorise, for that to wash.

The Quoran says so, and it is applied by many. The Quoran recommends gender apartheid and it is implemented. That's all. I don't have any interest in your twisting the matter towards irrelevancies.

The Quran does not make Muslims in most of the world implement this gender apartheid of wife heating that you claim.

Muslims and Christians in my Orolu Kingdom do not beat their wives. The traditional punishment if you do is you being whipped at the palace.

Muslims in Lagos where I lived did not beat their wives. That said, we did once have one person in our neighbourhood who was accused of beating his wife. My own mother marched women to his house and told him what they'd do to him if he ever touches his wife again.

If you don't have interest, you can very easily stop engaging. There is no book compelling you to respond to buda please.

Its not Islam that is not allowing it, its the UK law that is not allowing it.
That is precisely my point, ben. The law in Nigeria does not allow it neither, but that does not stop it happening like it stops it happening to any extent in UK or USA and lots of other places.

Besides. I do not believe TV01 will accept the muslims in his family if their Islam tells them they should marry underage girls or if they keep sex slaves.

Or do you want to argue that our muslim Mayor Sadiq Khan will marry an underaged girl if the law allows him and we London people will vote for him, three times?

That said, we've been arguing pdfs here for a while now where you've limited yourself to a book, and I'm delighted you are widening your scope to see it is in the realm of doing it with the underaged, married or not.

Incidentally, DEI is one of the avenues that has been used to address the inequality that underage marriage causes. The argument being, more girls will be empowered and inspired by seeing women in positions they hitherto never held. It is generally known women perform as equally as good as men when given the opportunity.

As for your allegation that Christianity or the Bible promotes slavery, please know that buda's view is that it does the exact opposite. It teaches people how to free themselves from slavery.

When it happens it is normal. The wives cover their body from head to toe, they believe in the Quora too, so they must subjugate themselves too not to get beaten.

My ex Asiya in London was a ninja anytime we meet. We go far away from where she lives to meet. All the eyes were on me holding the hands of a ninja as we walk.

Asiya lived in all these countries, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and London. Never been to Somalia, although that's where her parents are from.

Another one Fatima I don't know if her dad would have killed her. But she was locked up for a week for dating a black Christian boy when she studied in the UK. She is originally from Yemen, but her parents have refugee status in Norway. Even her closest younger sister stopped communicating with her. Eventually, her family disowned her.

Today, she recently got married to a Nigerian guy. She was the one my Muslim friends were not happy that I was dating. So when I say I don't like Islam, it's because of things like this.

I do know about honor killing!

Islam does not promote honor killing. Honor killing, like underage marriage predated Islam, is what you don't seem to acknowledge, and the Quran, written in its time, does not deviate from it much.

You also seem to pretend to not acknowledge the evolution of understanding that has occurred in most Islamic cultures barring perhaps Afghanistan and bokoharam since those verses were written, so below is about us, as in, Islam's penetration into Nigeria. The context is, educating women eradicates wife beating.

But in spite of this sound Islamic position, ‘the devils among men’ still believed that women should remain at home in ignorance, knowing very well that ignorance could lead women to hell. In addition, such devilish scholars had remained silent in situations of moral and social decadence in which women freely engaged with men in drumming and dancing, and in which they displayed their beauty on festive days. If a woman could go as far as to ḥajj, why should she not go out to learn about her faith, which indeed, is a greater obligation than ḥajj, the Shehu asked.

P.s. His daughter, Nana Asmaʼu, was a well educated woman whom I'm certain was not beaten.

I'm adding the below so you may consider it as a product of its time that most have evolved from.

Sexism is quite rampant in the Torah, considering the Hebrews were once a very chauvinistic society when it was written.
