Fariq Naik – Before Islam, the Woman was Considered as a Source of Evil or Disgrace

The seventh most common question or misconception that is there in

the minds of non Muslims is that why does Islam subjugate the

woman? By keeping her behind the way? Why does Islam subjugate the

woman by keeping them in the hijab? Before I discuss regarding

hijab, let us look at the status of the woman in the past

civilizations. If you look at the history of the Greek civilization,

woman they will look down upon and they believe in an evil woman by

the name of Bandura, who was the cause of all evil? If you look at

the history of the Roman civilization, woman they will look

down upon, and during the Senate of its glory, a man could even

take the life of his wife, prostitution and * to

Scarman. If you look at the history of the Babylonian

civilization, woman, they will look down upon and if a man

committed murder his wife was put to death. If you look at the

history of the Egyptian civilization, woman they were

considered as an instrument of the devil. If you look at the history

of the Arab civilization, before the Glorious Quran was revealed,

woman they were looked down upon, and when a female child was born

many times the female child was born alive. Alhamdulillah So Mal

hamdulillah after the revelation of the Glorious Quran, this evil

practice it has stopped
