Women in Islam

Muslim women: veiled, oppressed, trapped, victim of domestic violence, honour killing, lack of human rights. Is this really the status given to women in Islam?

The simple answer to the question posed in the subheading is NO. This is evident from the Qur’anic verse “…and they (women) have rights similar to those (of men)…” (Chapter 2, Verse 229).

The portrayal of Muslim women in the media is immensely distorted and misunderstood. Such representations are a false stereotype and completely contrary to the true teachings of Islam.

Breaking News For Muslims and Christians

 Having viewed the above photo, I draw the attention of the viewers to the prophecy of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw), where he explains the characteristics of the donkey of Dajjal / Anti-Christ which was to be ridden by Dajjal who was to appear before the advent of Imam Mahdi and Jesus in a second advent. He said that Dajjal would make an appearance on a white donkey whose two ears would be 30 yards apart and between whose legs there was to be a distance of a day and a night's journey. The donkey was to travel on water as well as land and in the air. It was to eat fire and leave clouds of smoke in front of it as well as behind it when it travelled. He also said that people would ride inside its belly, and not on its back. Today after seeing the trains and aeroplanes and other means of transport we know what the Holy Prophet (saw) was referring to. However, at that time when he explained to his companions about the means of transportation that the Dajjal / Anti-Christ would have, he had to use the vocabulary that people of that time could understand. 
Now, the question arises as to why a literal Dajjal / Anti-Christ has not appeared when the prophecy indicating his advent has been fulfilled.
