Hello,
My name is Jana Hrda. I´m a Czech student, nowadays I´m working on my Bachelor work, the topic is „The status of woman in the islamic world“. Part of the work is a questionare, therefor I´d like to ask you for a help. you can participate in this research no matter what age or nationality you are.
I think it will improve understanding between the cultures.
Thank you very much for your effort and cooperation.
The research:
The goal of this research is to map the view of islamic women on their own status.
Please state your:
Age:
Nationality:
Education:
Occupation:
1. Do you consider the status of a woman in a family and society equal to the status of men?
2. Is a woman entitled to study as well as man?
3. Are the conditions for reaching the same job equal for men and women?
4. Do you feel in any way limited by the rules of your religion?
5. Is head-scarf (hijab) limiting of freedom?
6. What is a benefit of the head-scaft for women?
7. Do you agree with polygamy? Do you think that a man can treat more than one woman equally?
8. Do you agree with the temporary marrige (sigheh)? If not please say why.
9. Can you name any disadvantage and advantage of a woman in the islamic country?
10. Can you name any disadvantages and advantages of a woman in a western (non-islamic) country?

EVER WONDER
Why a nun can be covered from head to toe and she's respected for devoting herself to God, but when a Muslim women does that, she's "oppressed"?
Why a Jew can grow a beard and he's just practicing his faith, and when a Muslim does that, he's an extremist?
When a western woman stays at home to look after the house and kids she's sacrificing herself and doing good for the household, but when a Muslim woman does so, she "needs to be liberated"?
Why is it that when a child dedicates himself to a subject, he has potential, and when a child dedicates himself to Islam, he is hopeless?
When a Christian kills someone, religion is not mentioned, (i.e., Ireland and the IRA) but when a Muslim is charged with a crime, it's Islam that goes to trial?
But then again, why is it after all that, Islam is still the fastest growing religion in the world ?

yes i believe in equality irrespective of sex so does islam the basic principles of of islam 1. oneness of god 2. offering prayers 5 times a days3.fasting in the month of ramadhan 4.zakat or giving alms 5. haj
all of them are same for men as well as women none discriminate
yes the women have the rigth to study and prophet (pbuh)himself asked everyone to acquire knowledge
see the jobs have nothing to do with islam because certain jobs are biased we see a prevelance of trends some being male oriented others female oriented for instance men are physically stronger and dont you see them on the battlefields
yes limited by the rules but no regrets let not forget that it was islam and prophet (pbuh) was stopped female infanticide in arab
no the purpose of hijab is often misinterpreted it does not limit our freedom but provides us security
benifits of hijab
1distinguishes us
2guards us
3 prevents adutry
4 checks evils of the modern society
5 code of disciplined life
no i dont and dont forget that islam for a second islam rncourages polygamy the rules are very tough and it it immpossible for a human to be equal with all his wives islam says that if you wish to marry a second wife permisson of first is needed and you have to be equal to both the times of war when the male population decreased and widows were left ungourded and had no means to support themselves and their children prophet had married them to provide security to them
no islam does not belive in temporary marriage as it leads to many sins like adultry unwanted children abortion its detrimental hum an pysche
advantages
many do ypu know that it was islam which gave the rigth to inherit fathers property
did you know that islam believes in democracy at the grass root level
security
widows are allowed a fixed stipend by virtue of thir gender
you dont come across crimes against women in large no such rape adultry molestation they are relatively less in number
let me tell you one thing that islam does not preach ill things about any sphere of life but it is the man who has distorted things in the name of islam for his own selfish interests and this is not confined to religion but you face it every where world being a patriacal one
hope i have clarified your doubts
