Dear Sister,

Your views are partial and biased. I am criticizing your views because it is right to express opinion. However, I would suggest not being narrow and shallow in academic approach.

Islam gives maximum freedom to women but Western media and self centered scholars are preaching what is not truth. Please read and refer Quran and other authentic books which will clear your perceptions. I give you assurance that Islam emancipates women from slavery and male chauvinism society. Islam believes in egalitarian and just society. Women are allowed in Islam to chose her partner, live with modesty and earn with respect. Islam is not allowing women to expose her body for sake of fun or to attract others. Women are dehumanized and demoralized and western culture. She is nothing but symbol of sex activity.

Jews have their own philosophy and religious approach which is terrible and horrible. History suggests Jews did commit crime in the name of religion and still following same pattern and practice.
