[quote=Anonymous]why should people be allowed to eat outside during ramadan in Morrocco!!

you guys realize that people can't walk down the street openly drinking alcohol in most of the USA and that grocery stores in many places don't sell liquor etc etc.  Laws in different places are put there to serve the local population.

the real problems with Morrocco is the inheritance laws  for women/custody laws . Also it is a Muslim country with a king the way that the UK is a Christian country- it's a constitutional monarchy and they have more women in government than the US.

since people in the US are openly talking about taking away women's right to vote- I think we all have enough problems of our own , Muhammad saw guaranteed Muslim women equal  political rights as men in his lifetime so if men can vote/run for office- so can women. faced with oppression- muslim women can look to their faith to guarantee their rights and shove that in the face of the men who are oppressing them so you arent going to find a lot of Muslim women embracing a woman who doesn't respect the faith that they use to  empower themselves.   Co-oincidentally- Arab custody laws are against Islamic law/sharia and muslim women use the Quran and Hadith to fight against them b/c the custody laws are pre-Islamic, they are just fully culturally entrenched and many people are uneducated about the ins and outs of Islamic family law but mothers have default custody until the kids are 7- then the kids get to weigh in, and default custody of girls unless the girls herself insists otherwise which is actually something fathers have to fight for in sharia courts. It's a LOT easier to fight back against oppressive chauvinism when you can quote the Prophet saw , his status is higher than that of western philosophers.  [/quote]
