[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima] [b]So, what happens to the woman with NO male relatives and NO inheritance of any substance? [/b][/quote]

The question posed was about inheritance, not about widows who dont have relatives or any substance. That is a pretty illogical question given that of course someone who doesn't have money or any family to rely on will get a job  if they can and want. Otherwise, they become the responsibility of the islamic state and the muslims in that state to a greater extent. Islam is not an individualistic society like the West. The wellbeing of each and every Muslim is the responsibility of all in the state.[/quote]

OK. But you just finished telling us how Islam institutionalizes 1/2 rights for women in testimony and financial transactions. Also, as you pointed out yourself, there's a pervasive cultural attitude that women are under men's "protection" instead of autonomous. How do these things affect women's ability to function as equals in the workplace? [/quote]

I am not Muslima but once again, she is correct here. Widows with no male relatives to support them become the ward of the state.

I am not at all seeing any attitude in Muslima's answers. She has been quite honest in her answers. If she paints Islam in flowery terms its likely because its simply an expression of her devotion and love for it. Nothing wrong with that. She has not been misleading at all in her answers. I am a Muslim also and validate her answers. [/quote]
