What is your educational background? You misread Leila Ahmed's comment. Not only did you fail to comprehend well, you lied and implied you read her book. If you read her book, you would have known why she wrote what she did. You are an Islam hater that is simply trying to spin the truth.

There is so much in her book that contradicts you. But how would you know that when you relied solely on the few pages offered in a google preview and never even read what she wrote afterwards?

It isn't possible to misread her comment. It leaves very little room for misinterpretation. But I look forward to your explanation of how the straightforward sentence of "some women were considerably better off before Islam than after" really means "Islam meant milk and cookies for everyone."[/quote]

The mockery exposes your immaturity and lack of understanding of Islamic history, which is precisely why you should not be posting excerpts from books you have not read. Grownups read books before they discuss them. Youngsters who want to show off read the cliff notes version and try to sound as if they read the book. For goodness sake, read the book. Leila Ahmed clearly stated in some ways, women had more rights and freedom pre Islam, but that these rights were predominantly in the area of sexual autonomy. Moreover, she clearly states in her book (the part not in the google preview you viewed) that Muhammads relegation did elevate the status of women overall. The rights that they lost after the Prophets death were due to culture and not Islamic principles. Shame on you for twisting this to propagate hate toward Islam simply because of your own personal experience with Muslims in another country. [/quote]
