MissStylish- part 1: i never said muslim women r not allowed 2 work. i am a muslim man who knows better than this, and i agree with u 1000%. it is NOT religion it is CULTURE that keep these people trapped. muhammad (saw) brought islam to eradicate backwards cultural practices that r harmful 4 humanity. funny, it seems that many muslims 4get that muhammad (saw) himself was employed by who? A SUCCESSFUL INTELLIGENT WORKING WOMAN- Khadijah! go figure! may Allah be most pleased with her.

MissStylish- part2: again, i agree, it is bad cultural practices that, unfortunately, pervade some, if not much of the muslim world today. this ignorance leads to women, in some countries, having to walk 5 steps behind a man, or women not being able to vote, or women having to remain locked up indoors unless a male relative escorts them somewhere, or women purposely not being educated or in some countries, women r subjected to the horrible cultural practice of female genital mutilation...

MissStylish- part3: all of this stems from IGNORANCE, FEAR & INSECURITY- not religion. again, muhammad (saw) came with islam to eradicate these ignorant and harmful cultural practices. unfortunately, it seems as if many muslims have slipped backwards into the old harmful tribal customs & habits of long ago. how sad & how unfortunate for humanity. they tarnish the image of a beautiful religion with their ignorance. may Allah open their eyes to truth.

I was refering to AFrica, not just Asian people go through with it. And the female Circumsition is also very common in Africa. I wish people would stop thinking that only asians have a bad culture. Like i said before there are many things that we just dont know about, or are well hidden to the masses, but it happens, but we only know if we look for it! instead of prejudging, without analysing outside the box!

Please note; no culture, is entirely bad. there are many things that culture has, which makes us nicer people, but I beileve that derives from religion, the good bits, that is.
