Well I have never believed Islam has any peaceful intent of any kind. Any I have always believed Islam recommends lying to achieve its ends. We were part of People to People at Fort Leavenworth. No one wanted to sponsor officers from certain Middle East countries, so we did. We loved the people from Jordan. In contrast, the officer from Saudi Arabia wouldn’t even sit next to me at a formal dinner because he might get contaminated by an American blond woman. They didn’t like our dog. They wouldn’t let their kids play our piano because music is verboten in Islam. It was a struggle. The wife and kids were terrified of the husband. When all the ladies went up to Leavenworth for a fashion show, the Middle Eastern officers’ wives prevented some of the other officers’ wives from applauding for the Israeli officer’s wife. Real eye opener.
“Real eye opener.”
While family law and personal status codes in Arab and Muslim countries restrict women’s rights and freedoms (e.g., in choosing a husband, guardianship/ wali, obeying the husband/ ta’ah, initiating divorce, dowry requirement, polygamy, marriage to non-Muslims, etc.), alternative interpretations of the Qur’an dispute these claims of male domination based on religious texts (see al-Hibri7).
Men are providers for women and in exchange for support, women should be obedient and serve their husbands. They should keep their virginity and after marriage, loyalty, chastity and complete dedication to their husbands are prerequisite for securing maintenance.
What you observed was from the Koran:
Men are primarily created to worship God. “Emotional attachment divides man’s heart, and Allah hath not created man with two hearts within his body” (Quran Surah II: 165).
So women get the leftovers.
