Muslimah feminists

Allah (swt) created humans and jinn to worship Him. Our purpose in life is to seek the pleasure of Allah. The way we conduct ourselves should be on the basis of accepting what is halal and avoiding what is haram. I am not seeing that here.

Whereas a Muslimah's dhikr should be "SubhanAllah, Alhamdullilah, Allahu akbar", the daily dhikr of this place is "Misogyny, misogyny misogyny". If an Islamic rule suits what you like, then you pursue it and if an Islamic rule is not to your liking, you pretend it's haram, accuse second wives of committing adultery cos' YOU don't like their nikah and whether Allah (swt) accepts the nikah or not is irrelevant.

You shared the post from a so called "sista" a couple of months back whose posts are more reflective of the "Quran only" kufar or some kind of apostate as she had the audacity to demean people who turn to "ancient texts" as a source of guidance. When I tried pointing this out, everyone was too busy applauding her BS to even notice because who cares whether this is acceptable in Islam or not, as long as it's in keeping with the whole bandwagon you've got going on here.

It's not exactly a secret that this reference to "ancient texts", she wasn't being ambiguous in suggesting that the guidance of the Sunnah and our Sahaba and classical scholars (may Allah be pleased with them) is somehow outdated, irrelevant. As such "ancient texts" are not in keeping with the whole "Let's put what us group of women want first and fit bits of Islam in only where it suits us (the same thing you accuse men of doing)", you habitually discard parts of Islam because Islam comes second and your crusade against misogyny comes first.

I'm not oblivious to the problems of the Ummah. Even Islam is not oblivious; that is why Islam forbids forced marriage, Islam forbids oppression, Islamic law punishes rape and so on- so it is Islam that can prevent many of these societal ills and Islam would prevent them if it were applied instead of being discarded due to the whims and desires of people (men or women) with vested interest agendas. I'm not oblivious to the crimes committed against Muslim women, whether by fellow Muslims or by non Muslims, but where we should be turning to Islam for the solutions to our problems, too many people here are more interested in discarding the parts of Islam that aren't in keeping with their agenda. Islam is not good enough for you that you have to look elsewhere and prefer the answers of the people of misguidance- this is shirk. Shame on you! Peace be upon those who follow guidance.

(This message was my final post before I left a so called “Muslim women’s” online group which had little to do with Muslims/Islam and was more about pushing a hardcore feminist agenda-)
