order to improve the way the public understands Islam, Muslim organizations have used a good portion of the funds given by the English state to educate those ignorant of Islam in English. These associations have launched a campaign "Inspired by Muhammad " (inspired by Mohammad), and you can see these big signs everywhere on buses and in subways.
For example, the poster attached announces:
"I think women's rights," as believed in Muhammad (or Mohammed also "- to sing in the tune of" Felicia, also "). This campaign
is not designed to inform, but to counter that the majority of English think of Islam and Muslims.
A study conducted by YouGov, in fact, found that:
58% of the population associates Islam with extremism.
50% of the population associates Islam with terrorism.
53% of the population believes that Islam is a danger to the West.
69% of the population believes that Islam promotes the repression of women. ( source)
Some gossips might say that indeed, between 31% and 50% of the population is unaware and over again that Islam encourages terrorism and encourages the oppression of women.
Let us talk about the freedoms of women in Islam. Some suras substantiates this (I copied and pasted the suras from the net):
Men ripe have the right to marry in prepubertal girls:
As for those who n have not menstruate, and discover they are pregnant, their interim ends after giving birth . (Surah 65.4)
Husbands have the right to hit their wives
Men have authority over women, because Allah has given to those over them, and because they spend out of their property. The righteous women are devoutly obedient (to their husbands), and protect what needs to be protected during the absence of their husbands with Allah's protection. And as for those whom you fear disobedience, admonish them, refuse to share their beds and beat them. If they return to obedience, seek not a way against them, surely Allah is High, Great! (Surah 4:34)
A man has the right to be polygamous and have up to four women:
And if you fear of not being justly with the orphans ... It is permissible to marry two, three or four among the women of your choice, but if you fear of not being fair with them, then only one, or you have slaves (Sura 4: 3)
Slave women are sexual property for their male owner:
unless they are your right hands possess. Prescription of Allah upon you! Apart from that, you are allowed to search, using your property and concluding marriage not committing fornication. Then, as you enjoy them, give them their dowries, as something due. There is no sin against you that you conclude any agreement between you after setting the mahr. Surely Allah is Knower, Wise. (Surah 4:24)
A woman can remarry her ex-husband if and only if she marries another man and that he divorced
If divorced her ( the third time) then it will no longer be permitted until it has married another. And if this (last) repudiates then both commit no sin together again, if they think they can both comply with the orders of Allah. (Sura 2:230)
The testimony of a woman counts to half that of a man :
Make two witnesses from among your men, and if two men, one man and two women, such as ye choose, for witnesses, so that if one of them errs, the other can remind her. (Sura 2:282)
A man inherits twice including a woman inherits:
Here is what Allah enjoins you concerning your children: the son, a portion equal to that of two females. (Surah 4:11)
men dominate their wives:
For their part, they have rights equivalent to their obligations in accordance with propriety. But men have a degree above them . (Surah 2:228)
A husband has sex with his wife as a farmer plows:
Your wives are a tilth you, go to your tilth as [when] you want and work for yourself in advance . (Surah 2:223)
... And more!
Well, now, some might say that these passages were written 1400 years ago and we should not judge modern Islam from that.
Okay. So let's see how some modern Muslims apply Shariah today
Here is a brief compilation of women's rights in Muslim countries today ( source) is the translation:
We talk a lot, they time, women's rights in Islam.
This list is based on the version of Islam in Saudi Arabia (Wahhabism), which is the power of Islam, which strictly follows the Quran, Mohammad, etc.. And which is widely spread around the world with fortunes made through the oil.
Peninsula Arabic is the birthplace of Islam and the Saudis themselves as the true conservative Islam.
can appoint other people who join the enslavement and oppression of women for religious reasons as the Iranians, Afghans and Pakistanis.

I have to admit my mistake: I wrote one day that Muslims have no sense of humor. But after seeing this poster at the top of this article, I feel obligated to revise that view.
Muslims actually have a sense of humor ... At less, quite simply, they take us for idiots?
