How come muslim men do not respect non muslim women?

Question

Just cause we don't wear veils it doesnt give you permission to treat us differently.

Answer 1

Tabari IX:113 “Allah permits you to shut them in separate rooms and to beat them, but not severely. If they abstain, they have the right to food and clothing. Treat women well for they are like domestic animals and they possess nothing themselves. Allah has made the enjoyment of their bodies lawful in his Qur’an.”

Qur’an 4:15 “If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, take the evidence of four witnesses from amongst you against them; if they testify, confine them to houses until death [by starvation] claims them.”

Bukhari:V3B48N826 “The Prophet said, ‘Isn’t the witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?’ The women said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘This is because of the deficiency of a woman’s mind.’

Ishaq:584 “Tell the men with you who have wives: never trust a woman.”

Qur’an 24:34 “Force not your slave-girls to whoredom (prostitution) if they desire chastity, that you may seek enjoyment of this life. [And here’s the freedom-to-pimp card:] But if anyone forces them, then after such compulsion, Allah is oft-forgiving.”

Ishaq:496 “Ask the slave girl; she will tell you the truth.’ So the Apostle called Burayra to ask her. Ali got up and gave her a violent beating first, saying, ‘Tell the Apostle the truth.’”

Qur’an 24:6 “And for those who launch a charge against their wives, accusing them, but have no witnesses or evidence, except themselves; let the testimony of one of them be four testimonies, (swearing four times) by Allah that he is the one speaking the truth.”

Answer 2

I would like to know how you are treated differently. I really would. You may feel that way because you might not understand the culture and the religion. There are things that are prescribed to Muslims that they must follow. That includes conduct with the opposite sex.

Muslim men are not to be alone with women who are not 1. their wife or 2. Family. Muslim men and women are not to converse with the opposite sex just for the heck of it. Muslims are not supposed to date, when there is interaction, it is only for the sanctity of marriage.

It might be hard to explain but I would be more then willing to have a one on one with you to answer all of your questions if you wish. Its also hard to explain if I don’t know how you were treated differently. I'm sorry you might have had a bad experience but maybe if it is what I think it is, some background may make you understand why they acted as they did.

how do muslims don't respect women ??
islam respects women more than any other religion do ..

Answer 4

it's probably because the women in question are not acting with respect. I am a non-muslim woman who is treated with respect and kindness by Muslims all the time. If I need help, I will get it much faster from a Muslim man than I would from any one else. It is part of their religion to do good deeds, so they are pleased to be of assistance.

I guess you get what you give.

Answer 5

The muslim men I have dated in the past before I was married respected me very much actually. They never asked me to change from whom I was. The only reasons those relationships never led to a marriage because at the time I was in my early-mid twenties and felt I was too young and not ready for marriage.

Answer 6

they don't respect muslim women either. my mom's friend is a muslim and her husband has been married 3 times before her and he is only 29! I guess because there are a lot of women so then they become greedy and want more. but if you respect them they will respect you.

Answer 7

muslim men are not allowed to speak to women unless they're their wives or daughters mothers etc relatives. if they speak to other women it must be out of necessity and be kept brief. they wont touch a non relative or even make prolonged eye contact. Its part of the religion and may come across as rude if you are unaware of this. Many non muslim women would prefer their partners to act like this when it comes to other women to stop them from feeling like they're always eying up other girls. Also most men prefer women that are with them to cover themselves up so that what they know to be special (the womans body) is for their eyes only....most of us have experienced it. You meet the man in the shortest skirt or tightest top you posessed and when you started going out you tried to wear it nad it caused an argument cos he said "your not going out like that without me etc
its natural jelousy and muslim men like the fact that the women cover what is special to them and dont displaye it for every man on the street to see it

Answer 8

cuz they were raised that way. they have been brainwashed all their lives and they have become what they have been taught on a daily basis. I think they need to be exposed to Barny, Dora, and the teletubbies. The world would be a different place. Might be more gay people, but at least no more wars.

Answer 9

Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) has said.. that when a women is passing then look down and walk... he didn't mention religion.. muslims have to respect women let them be of any religion..

Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) has said that first sight of the women is ok but the second one is forbidden.. this means that if u see a women by mistake then it is ok.. but don't keep on looking her.. second one means to look at her purposely after having the first sight..

Answer 10

It probably doesn't hold true for most of them, but to the fundamentalists and extremists, women are a 2nd class citizen, and are to be subservient to men. Here in America, women are regarded as equal, there fore are not submissive and are more outspoken.
