Sexism In Islam?
Muhammed, I can share a differenct perspective. Please go through statistics. 1. Please check the population of the World and see how many families, husband, wife and children, combined can even earn enough money just to feed themselves. 2. How many women are sole earners and running the family. 3. Are women making more money than men? The capable educated women in the World who can earn enough to support the entire family will be less than 0.01% of all women. For exceptions where women can do that husband and wife can reverse role. I and many other men will personally do it in a heart beat, but it needs to be a pure switch. I can manage children and hosehold very well and spare tons of my time for entertainment. My wife can earn and share money with me and go fight for me, do yard work, write bills, fix around the house, fix my car, get groceries, do all heavy lifting and physically strenuous work, lift my shopping bags, open car door for me, wash my cars, build a shed, paint the house and still help me with cooking, cleaning, dishes, laundry, etc. And if she divorces me, she neefs to pay me a contracted amount and child support.
The use doesn’t kill the institution; abuse does.
Brother Nadeem, I am merely quoting the words from Quranic Ayah. I am not saying that men are favored, it is Quranic verse that is (apparently) saying this. Sharing from their earnings is a second argument/reasoning in that ayah whereas, the first one is them being favored and that is precisely my question here “what kind of favoritism is it?” Is it physically being stronger or something else?
