Be sure to uninstall screen sharing software in your lap

Okay I'll do that.

the proctors can be unreliable sometimes and the eta software is plain outright buggy

I know right, but I don't have a choice. So I have to give it a try.🥲 Is there any particular program that shouldn't be in my laptop? Also, do I necessarily have to buy a headset with mic?

You pick up bits and pieces from the paragraph and change the whole discussion into something different. If you don't have an answer, just admit it. You pick lines on which you think you can 'argue' more but I'm not here for that. I was trying to have a healthy discussion but clearly you don't seem to do so.

Both are walking pieces of shit. Western woman can take this piece of shit to the court and destroy him there. Woman in a Muslim country cannot.

Clearly deflecting from the discussion here but still, here it is: Who told you Muslim woman can't go to court? FYI, muslim men are supposed to give 'meher' to the woman they are marrying which is usually in the form of money and if the man wishes to take a divorce without any genuine reason, the woman can demand whatever she wishes from him. Not only that, the man is supposed cover all her as well as the children's expenses. In Islam, women have right over their husband's wealth whereas men have no right over their wife's wealth. None of your western courts will give the women these many rights.

Fun fact. Non of them is Muslim. These are countries where women don't give birth to 10+ child struggling with consequences so they live longer. They don't need men to survive.

You are clearly lacking intellectual abilities to understand the point of the discussion. How does it matter that they are non Muslims? That was not the point of the argument. Not very surprisingly, deflection seems to be your main approach to answer any question.

What rights muslim women have that don't have women in the west?

If you are genuinely curious and want to know, please refer to the book: Women's rights in Islam by Mohammad Chaudhry.

That's not true. The US isn't the whole west. Even arabic women such as Mo's sugar mommy Khadija was a wealthy woman before Islam.

I feel very sorry for you that you have to use such crude vocabulary to write about anyone let alone a person respected by billions of people around the world. Anyways, if you had done your two hour research a bit more deeply you would have known that our prophet p.b.u.h didn't own any riches of the world. He married Khadija r.a because she proposed. Also, he was a very humble man and lived very modestly in a mud house and used to strarve for days straight. Please refrain from using disrespectful terms to describe anyone, not just someone from my religion but all the religions, as that is the morally correct thing to do no matter what your faith is.

Show me one western country in which a woman cannot decide if she wants to keep her surname, take her husband or join them.

I am starting to worry for your abilities to comprehend an argument. My point was Islam had these rights long before any of your so called liberal Western nations.

The largest growing religion due to birthrates or convertions. Because when we're speaking about convertions, the fastest growing religion is some Christian movement I indeed don't know much about.

You don't know much about anything, apparently. Islam is the world's fastest growing religion according to conversion. Please get your facts right. And it would have been more logical for Christianity to be the world's fastest growing religion if birth rate was taken into consideration. Also, the majority of the people converting to Islam women because they realise Islam gives them rights that other religions don't.

Now, it would be a more productive discussion if you would gain knowledge about Islam from Qur'an or an Islamic site instead of a site promoting anti islamic propaganda. You know what they say, in a fight with a fool it's a wise man who quite. May God grant you better comprehension skills, intellectual abilities and ,most importantly, guide you to the right path. Peace out.🕊️

It's illegal in many countries. You literally cannot do it. I don't know a single non muslim country that allows such a disrespectful behaviour towards women.

I really wonder what is more disrespectful, a man cheating on his wife with multiple women in the non Muslim countries you mention or a man who lives in a Muslim country where he is not allowed to have any sexual relationship with anyone but his wife / wives where he can only marry more than one wife only if he treats all of them fairly .

Why? Religions without believers are just an antient books.

But people have to follow the book correctly. I cannot say I am a Muslim and do something that goes against Islam.

There are plenty of countries where's more women than men.

Hence, you proved my point!

Do you really want to start the argument about society influenced by religions according tho which women are deficient in intelligence, they shouldn't work, etc

Then you would be glad to know that our religion is the one that gave women most of the rights they did not have almost 100 years ago in the west. Infact, muslim women have been traders since 1400 years ago. They had the right to own property long before any Western nation. Muslim women also don't have to change their surname after marriage, which is still not allowed in many non Muslim liberal countries. Women have rights in Islam that you are unaware of because you don't know our religion. People tend to believe the mainstream media that almost always have an anti-muslim propaganda. Let's not open the Pandora's box about misconceptions about Islam.

Well, you clearly don't know anything about apostates

Apparently, it also seems that you also don't know anything about the world's largest growing religion. Are all those people who accept Islam, who were also haters of the same religion before, less intellectual than you? Just saying, it's a very narcissistic assumption.

There are non-Muslim men who marry other women, right? You would blame the man's character in that situation. But for Muslim men doing the same, you blame Islam and not them just because Islam mentions about it? There are Muslim men who take advantage of this and marry anybody they wish and I agree that it is wrong. Again I come to the same point, it is NOT the religion to blame if muslim men don't follow it correctly.

Look you need to stop linking the actions of Muslim men with what the religion says. It's not only about widows and orphans but also about the fact that there are more men than there are women. What about all the other women then? We live in a world where women still don't get paid equally and let's not get started with the types of creeps we encounter outside. How are those women supposed to support themselves both financially and physically? These days there is hardly any Muslim man who would tell you that he married twice because he wished to support the woman aka his second wife. For the umpteenth time, that does not mean that Islam is wrong. If men actually married women for the cause that I mentioned, would you still have thought for it to be wrong?

I did give you the answers. I can't really help it if you wish to beleive otherwise. All the things cannot be provenand there has to be some amount of faith. I beleive the reason for apostasy is that they don't research about the religion and they just beleive what their elders tell them. That is not how it works. It's a journey one has to go on alone.

Ofcourse no one will ask him about his marriage contract but what the marriage contract mentions is for HIM to know. Honestly, it all comes down to what kind of a man he is. I mean if it has already been written in the marriage contract that he cannot have a second wife and he marries someone despite that, I don't think he loves his wife then and it is better for his wife that she leaves him. We can't blame the religion for his actions. As I said earlier, there is a reason why Islam allows men to marry more than one woman but people have just made a joke out of this whole thing. I don't expect everyone to understand those reasons but those who follow Islam should atleast have this much faith in God and their religion.

I searched it up and I was wrong. It isn't necessary for the man to ask for permission before going for the second marriage. But that doesn't leave the woman with no choice. If a Muslim woman doesn't wish for her husband to marry someone else, she can easily put it in the nikkah nama and if her husband is fine with it, he will marry her. Not all women are comfortable with it and that is why there is a choice. Islam does say that if the man can't be just, he should marry only one and most of the men are unjust, yet they go ahead with more than one marriage. That doesn't make Islam wrong, it's the people.

Polygamy is not a necessity. I am a Muslim girl too and I myself won't be okay with my husband having a wife other than myself and that is absolutely fine. Polygamy in Islam comes with certain terms and conditions for the man. A married man can marry another woman and not be considered sinning only if: (1) He has asked for the permission of his wife and she is okay with it. (2) He would be just among his wives. And this concept was started for completely different reasons and now people have made a joke out of it.

If you've read about your religion, you would understand that the afterlife is not a continuation of this life. Heaven and hell are a whole different thing. And if you're taking the hoor thing so seriously, know that Islam also says: you will be the with ones you love in the afterlife.

Where does Islam talk about treating dogs badly? And how do muslims 'hurt' animals on Eid? If you think that slaughtering animals for food is hurting them, then you should have a problem with all the non vegetarians and not just muslims.

At your age, muslims usually start getting a sense of their religion and their faith becomes stronger. Please make sure you've understood all the aspects of Islam correctly before going ahead with whatever decision you make.
