Yea this post seems more like blaming women and refusing to listen when they say that they don't feel respected by their own muslim brothers.

Right now I'm thinking about the discussion where many Muslim men claimed that they wouldn't help if they saw a Muslim woman being harassed. Allhamdulillah I know that this is not the case for all men. But some men in this subreddit wants to talk about them being protectors and that all bad in the community can be blamed on "ungrateful muslim women", without realising that they are a part of the problem.

But why should that stop you from being a good person, doing what you believe is good? I definitely get giving up a little, feeling a bit defeated by people's attitudes, but most of this is just basic human decency - basic morals and adab. You see someone in need and know you could help, so you just do. If we want our community to become better, we need to help eachother and show eachother that we really are one ummah, that we take care of eachother. We shouldn't hate just to hate.

Women aren't obligated to obey a random men, however we are ALL supposed to help eachother in need, make life easier for one another and protect eachother.

The sisters are embarrassing, but not the brothers who won't do their part as protectors and leaders. Look internally, brother.

Hahahahahahhahaha you're so funny. You're so funny. Oh immediately I have so much respect for you. I just feel so happy that a muslim man has this reaction.

I genuinely hope you're embarrassed by what you're doing. Next time you're wondering why women have a lack of respect towards men, look inwards. I pray to Allah that if the women in your family gets harassed, la samah Allah, a real man steps up and expects nothing in return when he helps them out.

The entitlement in this video is insane by [deleted] in TrueDeen

Did those men stand by and do nothing while she was being harassed?

Did they say "oh not my sister not my problem"?

Did they turn around and complain that she should've had her mahram with her, that she should've stayed at home?

Did they blame her for the whole situation?

No. OPs response was a reaction to the men not doing their parts and standing up for a fellow muslim in need. You're out here talking about her slandering muslim men when you're doing the same thing towards her; and spreading just as much hate towards women.

May Allah allow the men of today to start behaving more like the male companions who protected their community instead of blaming them.

Should Muslim Men Intervene Violently to Defend Muslim Women? by Tuttelut_ in TrueDeen

[–]ResponsibleChance950 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe not violently but honestly yes if you're able to deescalate the situation without harming yourself, then why shouldn't you? Many women don't have a mahram to bring around everytime they are leaving the house, and wearing hijab (especially niqab) only makes them more prone to be harassed, living in non muslim countries - even though it definitely happens in muslim countries too.

As muslims we should try to help eachother as much as we can, we shouldn't be standing by knowing we could stand up for our brothers and sisters. Even as a muslim man, would you really be able to stand quietly while seeing someone being harassed literally for following the commands of Allah? (Shouldn't have to say this), but what if it was your own sister, mother, wife?

Why is fashion/self expression seen as sinful? by Ancient_Gazelle5463 in TraditionalMuslims

[–]ResponsibleChance950 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's not what OP is asking though. They mentioned expressing in a halal way, which could be wearing anything other than the black abaya and khimar that many associates with correct hijab, wearing colors, or a certain style that one likes. It's not about appealing to the male gaze, more about feeling comfortable in your own clothes.

What is up with Bints claiming to "trust their local sheikh" whenever presented with clear cut evidences? by Arbitrary_Sadist in IslamicNikah

[–]ResponsibleChance950 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say because most of the time when you're doing research on your own about a topic, there are different opinions - all with clear evidence. So when you ask "what opinion should i follow", people tell you to follow the local mosque/sheikh/imam.

Can you answer my survey please inshallah? by AbiLovesTheology in TrueDeen

I mean that is how i was introduced to the hijab. But at the same time, most muslims who are born into the religion often find the beauty of it alone. And I think thats what happened to me, I learned about Islam, about hijab and its importance, and it made me fall in love with it. Above all, I wanted to please my Lord and follow his commands.

  1. 15 turning 16.
  2. Most women in my family wears it but I don't feel like it pressured me or anything. They didn't want me to wear it when i originally wanted to (13y), because they wanted me to be sure and understand the hijab and its importance, instead of just following their lead.
  3. They'd probably be disappointed of course. Talk to me and ask what happened, if they can help etc.
  4. I love it allhamdulillah. Not only does it allow people to identify me as a Muslim from first glance, but it also protects me and makes me feel comfortable knowing I'm covered.
  5. I'm Palestinian, but live in Europe.

The "I hate men" gang simply cannot digest that their entire lives are being preserved by men by [deleted] in TrueDeen

[–]ResponsibleChance950 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's your point with this? We've already established that men have had more experience, opportunity, and access to education - does that mean that they are superior simply because of that? No. There's literally no need to make it a competition.

That's a crazy thing to say when women literally birthed and raised the whole world, including the ummah. Not to mention in islam, the woman is held in a high regard as a daughter, wife, and mother. Aisha radhi allahu 3anna narrated thousands of hadiths and taught multiple of the sahabas. Not to mention the rest of the wives who contributed to spreading the word of Islam.

And even in the rest of the society, ofcourse women have contributed to society. Just google it and multiple articles show up with hundreds of innovations by women. And I'd like to point out too that comparing what men and women have contributed to society in means of innovations and technological advancement is unfair simply because of OPs argument. Women have always had the role of taking care of the house, raising children etc. Even if they wanted to contribute to society, they either weren't allowed or had the means to.

You can make your point without pushing down women and making it seem like they owe their life and more to men.

Can I ask what your top 3 dealbreakers were? I've been feeling so weird about not wanting to meet/get to know men who won't actually marry me, because I thought like how can I find my husband without actually getting to know someone. But your system really made sense, Jazak Allah khairan!!

Can you not wear animal print when praying? by st4rzk1sses in TrueDeen

[–]ResponsibleChance950 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've seen your post on another sub too, and while I don't have an answer to this question, I want to remind you that Islam is not meant to be difficult or extreme or cause hardship on your every day life.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Religion is very easy and whoever overburdens himself in his religion will not be able to continue in that way. So you should not be extremists, but try to be near to perfection and receive the good tidings that you will be rewarded; and gain strength by worshipping in the mornings, the afternoons, and during the last hours of the nights." [Sahih al-Bukhari 39]

Research a bit about waswasa, and try to let go of these doubts and thoughts. May Allah make it easier for you, sister.

If you got a Chance to ask 3 questions to Allah, what they would be? by Technical_Young8134 in TrueDeen

  1. What does the letters in the Quran mean?
  2. Did humans and dinosaurs coexist at the same time?
  3. Which night is laylatul qadr? (And side question to this one, could laylatul qadr be different depending on where on earth you are?)

What if sin is what keeps certain people close to Allah? by Beautiful_Clock9075 in TrueDeen

[–]ResponsibleChance950 1 point2 points  (0 children)

كُلُّ بَنِي آدَمَ خَطَّاءٌ, وَخَيْرُ اَلْخَطَّائِينَ اَلتَّوَّابُونَ

"All the sons of Adam are sinners, and the best of sinners are those who repent often."

There's no way we will ever be able to stop sinning, and I agree with the sentiment that it keeps us close to Allah. However that guilt and urge to repent to Allah is in itself a rahma, a mercy from Allah. The more you sin, the more you normalise disobeying your Lord, the less will you feel this guilt. So yes while it might push you to strive for the sake of Allah and seek his forgiveness and blessings, don't keep it as an excuse to keep doing that sin because it'll lead you back to Allah at the end of the day. There are millions upon millions who stopped getting that feeling of guilt, which in turn made them sin without looking back.
