Sura 37:22-23 women will be punished for sins committed by their
husbands
http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/Pages/Myths-of-Islam.htm#slavery
Merely stating that individuals will be judged as such by Allah does
not mean that they have equal rights and roles, or that they are
judged by the same standards. In fact, Sura 37:22-23 implies that
women will be punished on Judgment Day for sins committed by their
husbands.
There is no ambiguity in the Qur=92an, the life of Muhammad, or Islamic
law as to the inferiority of women to men, despite the efforts of
modern-day apologists to salvage Western-style feminism from scraps
and fragments of verses that have historically held no such
progressive interpretation.
After military conquests, Muhammad would dole out captured women as
war prizes to his men. In at least one case, he advocated that they
be raped in front of their husbands. Captured women were made into
*** slaves by the very men who killed their husbands and brothers.
There are at least three Qur=92anic verses in which Allah makes it clear
that a Muslim master has full ***ual access to his female slaves, yet
there is not one that prohibits rape.
The Qur=92an gives Muslim men permission to beat their wives for
disobedience. It plainly says that husbands are =93a degree above=94
wives. The Hadith says that women are intellectually inferior, and
that they comprise the majority of Hell=92s occupants.
Under Islamic law, a man may divorce his wife at the drop of a hat.
If he does this twice, then wishes to remarry her, then she must first
have *** with another man. Men are exempt from such degradations.
Muslim women are not free to marry whomever they please, as are Muslim
men. Their husband may bring other wives into the marriage bed. She
must be ***ually available to him at all times (as a field ready to be
=93tilled,=94 according to the holy book of Islam).
Muslim women do not inherit property in equal ****tions to males.
Their testimony in court is considered to be worth only half that of a
man=92s. Unlike a man, she must cover her head and often her face.
If a woman wants to prove that she was raped, then there must be four
male witnesses to corroborate her account. Otherwise she will be
jailed or stoned to death for confessing to =93adultery.=94
Given all of this, it is quite a stretch to say that men and women
have =93equality under Islam=94 based on obscure theological analogies or
comparisons. This is an entirely new stratagem that is designed to
appeal to modern tastes, but is in sharp disagreement with the reality
of Islamic law and history.
