I know that lots of muslims, specially women who are embracing peaceful and very secular faiths such as Sufism and Bahism, because they are disgusted with Islam's very rigid, literal and paranoid ideology.
could Sufism and Bahaism become the new faith of muslims? I feel that it will happen and islam will die out . Am I right?

wikipeda writers are well paid by the saudi government and other rich muslims to promote islam
the fastest growing religions are christianity, bahaism, and meditative practices based on buddhism and christianity.
islam is a fast dying religion, and its growth is mainly due to high birth rates among muslims. when islam gains 1 convert 100 leave islam in silent

so you want to talk about woman rights in Islam? alright.

in Islam a woman is given the right to own lands and property, she has the right to inherit, to work, get a divorce, etc.. this was introduced 1400years ago in the islamic community, a long time before it appeared in the western world.

i know that most western women feel that the Hijab is a big sign of opression because they got used to wearing bikinis and stuff, but dont nuns in chrisitainity cover themselves up in the same way? it is even worse for them since they are not allowed to have any maritual relationships.

and just like what has been said already Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world and there is no way it would disappear.

You are mistaken, brother; Sufism and Bahaism are just fringe practices in Islam. They have always been like that. They have nothing to do with mainstream Islam. In fact, most Moslems believe that such practices and beliefs are quite heretic. As to Islam, it has been spreading like no other faith ever since the advent thereof.

wot nonsense are u talking... sufism has always been a trend in Islam... and continues to be to this day.... Bahaism is one offshoot of Islam... It is fundamentalism that is new, a thing which has come about after colonization and as a response to modernity and hostilities which have sprung up as a result of modern condition. Not to say there couldnt have been other responses... In the contemporary all these trends continue to exist and flourish simultaneously only that in interaction with Western highhandedness you only see violence.

I am sorry my friend, but you have got your facts wrong. Just go search in Wikipidea, and you will find out that Islam is the fastest growing religon in the world. And that includes, USA, UK and Austrailia. Secondly, do you think it is the men who account for this growth. No!. Authentic and accurate figure compiled by non muslims show that two thirds of non muslims who are embracing Islam are women. Search wikipedia again. You will find your answer. If Islam were so cruel, why would it be the fastest growing religon, and secondly, why more and more women are accepting it. You see, the Islam you know is the Islam potrayed by CNN and BBC. And I am sorry to say that these channels unintentionally are doing more harm than good to Islam. Please, before commenting on any religon, study it yourself, and if then you have any objections, we muslims are more than eger to answer any query imaginable.

For Allah says in the Quran. "When truth is heard against falsehood, falsehood perishes, for falsehood by its nature is bound to perish"

it seems that you are confused,
Sufism is not a secular faith, in contrast it is a strange trend in Islam that has some special worship practices,
Bahism first appeared in india and is a different religion than islam,
the wide spread style of islam is the classical one, and it is spreading very quicly these days.

its not like this, The sufism mean the person pure by virtue of their act and practice of God and Prophet Muhammad teachings. i.e strictly following the teachings of Islam. The image of islam in all ages has been blamished. The Sufis (i.e.the friends of God) have been guiding people in true way of God. This was done earlier by prophets of God, then companion of Prophets, and then this is now being done by Suffis. Suffi have been strictly following the preachings of Islam and therefore the God gifts them with His secrets and become like ointment on wounds of people. therefore saying that people who are disgusted with Islam's very rigid idilogy are only accepting suffiism is wrong. They love suffiism because they have cure for their wounds, they get relief in their sorrows, because they then start remembering God. Islam is never rigid literal. It has given guidance for correct direction and leading life. Islam mean protection, it provides peace and guides peace, its only section of people which is defaming Islam, otherwise there are 5 billion muslims in the world.
