Teenage Muslim Girl and Feminist AMA

That is good to hear x
When you first started fasting, was it your own choice or your parents advised you to start?

It was my own choice

To be honest my parents weren't really keen on the idea of me fasting to begin with because I'm already really small and skinny and they didn't want me to faint or anything. But they never tried to stop me because they knew one day, I would anyway, fast so why hold me back?

Ahh yeah, my parents were the same and even till this day, they still are. But sounds like you are stubborn and tbh if you want to fast, then its your own choice. No-one can stop you

Yeah you could say I'm pretty stubborn xD

This is so irrelevant but the first time I came across your username in a thread, I thought you were a guy maybe its cuz of the name lol

Sexual orientation cannot be influenced over time such that it changes and becomes different to that assigned your sex by biology inside your mother's womb.

Biology is made up of two components; anatomy and physiology. For a sexuality to be defined as being natural and normal it has to conform with both these components and be complimented in the partner chosen for a relationship. In men and women anatomy and physiology compliment each other. The physiology of the male compliments that of the female. They are therefore said to be biologically compatible with one another. Homosexuality, transsexuality and all other forms of sexual relations are not natural. The anatomy and physiology of the male does not compliment that of another male e.g. men or women cannot have children with the same sex. Men lack an orifice for a penis in other males. Women lack an organ for the vagina in other women. All forms of non-hetrosexaulity are not biologically natural. They are not the result of nature but rather nurture.

There are so many issues with this post I could go about attacking, but I think it's just worth pointing out that you start by saying "sexual orientation cannot be influenced over time such that it changes and becomes different to that assigned your sex by biology inside your mother's womb" and then end by saying "all forms of non-hetrosexaulity are not biologically natural. They are not the result of nature but rather nurture." You essentially directly contradict yourself and admit that my point was correct.

ROFL to all the people crying about hijab, it is a symbol of empowerment for me, no matter how much you try and debate against that, I will keep wearing it no matter what, as it empowers me

Forced marriage has nothing to do with Islam. It's a cultural thing that sick people have diluted with religion.

Forced marriage is against Islam.

Lol.

Haha no, I'm 100% sure I'm a girl xD

Show me the quotes where that is mentioned and I will give you my opinion on them.

4:11 - (Inheritance) "The male shall have the equal of the portion of two females".
2:282 - (Court testimony) "And call to witness, from among your men, two witnesses. And if two men be not found then a man and two women".
2:223 - "Your wives are as a tilth unto you; so approach your tilth when or how ye will..." (from an overtly sexual passage).
4:34 "Men are in charge of women, because Allah hath made the one of them to excel the other, and because they spend of their property (for the support of women). So good women are the obedient, guarding in secret that which Allah hath guarded. As for those from whom ye fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them to beds apart, and scourge them."

You never gave your opinion on it. How can you be Muslim and feminist at the same time do you follow some deranged form of feminism where men are in charge and when your wife disobeys you " scrouge them". I don't know what that means but it seems brutal.

4:11 - (Inheritance) "The male shall have the equal of the portion of two females".
This is made up for in marriage when a woman is given a mahr, only she can have full control over that once it is given to her from the groom's side.

2:282 - (Court testimony) "And call to witness, from among your men, two witnesses. And if two men be not found then a man and two women".

Many people take this out of context, this is only meant financially.

4:34 "Men are in charge of women, because Allah hath made the one of them to excel the other, and because they spend of their property (for the support of women). So good women are the obedient, guarding in secret that which Allah hath guarded. As for those from whom ye fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them to beds apart, and scourge them."

A verse which many struggle to understand. This is simply stating that men should look after women, not control them. The word "scrouge" is used as a metaphor for emotionally disciplining them, not physically. And women can equally do the same to men if he mistreats her.
