Uh... Like the other guy said FGM is an African practice with no origin in Islam. Like go get me a hadith where any early Muslim of note does it.

Furthermore any religion that prohibits women from getting an education above grade-school level, and prohibits them from having their own money, having a career,

Well good thing Islam doesn't forbid any of that then.

I mean it was the other guy that needlessly inserted Islam into the conversation but if you're gonna criticize a religion can you at least stick to the facts?

FGM is an African practice, regardless of whatever religion they've inherited.

Islam doesn't prohibit women from getting an education. You got that from Afghanistan, when the Taliban temporarily banned women and young girls from going to school because the U.S. was injecting western values (degeneracy) into their curriculum.

Islam doesn't.. lmao prohibit women from having their own money. In fact, women who earn money, have no obligation to give that money to anyone. They can decide to for charity if they'd like. As for not showing their face, that's cultural as well.. because all that is obligated is for women to cover their hair (amongst other body parts), like the early day Jewish and Christian women. Boohoo.. you're mad because women are modest and not showing off everything they have like modernists.

In fact it is western civilization that has sexualized women. Turned them into sex objects. The countless ads where women were used to influence views and sales. You ruined women so badly that you created a monster - western feminism and all the ills it has created between both men and women.

Go ahead hate Islam all you want, all it does is create more curiosity, later, conversion to Islam.

Pssst.. 9/11 pique my interest. And alhamdullilah, God chose me.

Stay mad.
