have you read books by an afghan muslim lady journalist named SAIRA SHAH? she is a lady born in england and write about how most muslim women and girls are been abused by muslim men in all muslim countries.
as she says why should muslims blame outsiders when they have enough problems within their own societies?

Hi! I am Christian and I have also read many of those books that represent Muslims as abusive and oppressive towards women.But I have also communicated to Muslim women in reality and somehow none of them feel abused - most of them say their husbands treat them like queens :) So I assume that in Islamic countries there are SOME men who abuse women,but can you say that there isn't such a thing in Christian world? I mean husbands that beat their wives,even their children?Think on that.

I agree with you,
Why dont the Muslim men in the Muslim countries that abuse Muslim woman obey the Quran and Hadith which condemn such acts. The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) once said: even if you dislike your wife (because of her bad acts) treat her kindly.
This is also the reason why the Muslim countries are 3rd world, they are moving away from the teachings of the Quran and Hadith.
Also please dont judge Islam by the Muslims but the Holy text.

When talking about different religions, there will always be arguments and blaming. Right now, in the Christian *church*, preachers are saying that we should actually fight and rid the world of Muslims. How does that make Christians any different from Muslims? If God didn't want diversity, there would not be diversity. Peace.

The religion differs from its followers in the sence that we can not question Islam, but Muslims are questioned and Muslims today are in the phase of deterioration of their civilization and thus they blame outsiders while they have enough problems from within.
Generalization fails, but certinally, your point of view is well respected.
By the way,I am a Muslim

I don't blame Christians and Jews.
I do blame PEOPLE for abusing me, but not in specific those religions.
......
Also I honestly don't know ANY muslims who have been abused or show any signs of abuse from their husbands. If they did I say they need to get a divorce just like any other married couple.
