i have to do a speech on womens rights in islam?

Question

any ideas like wearing a hijab and all that

Answer 1

Doing a speech on women's rights in Islam is like writing a book entitled "Mullah's I have met while yachting", in that they are both non-existent concepts. The "religion of peace" that directs it's practitioners to mutilate the genitals of young girls, and force women to cover head to toe in desert heat, cannot even remotely be considered a faith that respects women's rights. How about the fact that men can get a temporary convenience marriage in that faith, essentially making cheating acceptable. How about in Saudi Arabia, where women cannot even drive a car....wow that is real freedom huh?

I hope this provides you with the impetus for a great speech on women's right rights Islam,

Answer 2

Muslim women have the right to choose our spouses.

Muslim women have the right to inherit, earn, and manage our own money.

Muslim women have the right to participate in the political system.

Muslim women have the right to wear hijab, so that people will respect our privacy.

Muslim women have the same right to education as men.

Muslim women are exempt from most financial responsibilities; we don't even have to support ourselves.

Muslim women are exempt from (but not excluded from) military service.

I suggest that you might like to compare these rights with those delineated in the Bible.

Answer 3

You could do a compare and contrast between the middle Eastern Muslim's males idea of rights and care of their horses and their wives, which is nearly equal, but leans a bit toward more freedoms for the horse. Climb into full regalia with whip and all.

I'm a Muslim woman.
I have the right to 1/3 inhertiance.
I have the right to choose my own marriage partner.
I have the right to a divorce.
I have the right to vote(Muhammad gave women the right to vote over 1400 years ago).
I have the right to work if I want to.
Any money I make I keep and can spend as I like.
I don't have to contribute to the household income(Men are required to take care of the wife and children even if the wife makes more money).
I have to right to an education.
I don't have to pray or fast on my period.
I have the right to ask for protection from a man on the street to avoid being molested.

Answer 5

I did a simple search on the web. Lots of sites. And, yes, they do have many rights that are given to them in the Koran. Just check out the sites for starters.
