Tackling Misconceptions - The oppression of women in Islam.
As a Muslim woman, I can’t help but feel as though I’m walking around with labels all over me. I can see people’s strong opinions of me just by how they’re looking at me. As though my clothing is a prison. As though my opinions are made for me. As though my husband speaks on my behalf. As though I have no prospects, no job, no education. As though I have no sense of self worth. This list is endless.
As this is most definitely not the case, I feel it is important that we discuss what being a woman in or around Islam means to each of us.
Things to consider:
What has your journey been like up to now, as a woman, in or around Islam?
What do you love about being a woman in or around Islam?
Before practicing, accepting or learning about Islam, did you have any misconceptions about a woman’s standing Islam?
What standing and what role do women of Islam have? And what roles have they played in Islamic history?
