Men role In the Muslim Religion

 


   According to this article Men have control over women in the Islamic religion.  While it is forbidden for a Muslim women to marry a non-Muslim man, men aren't under the same restrictions to their choice of marriage. This is a consequence of the low status of a wife against that of her husband.  It’s also said a wife must be subordinated to her husband. A man must not let a Muslim women be without their guardianship.  In the Quran its quoted that “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.”

   I feel in the Muslim religion men are more superior then women are. They have the right to do basically what they want and women don’t have the same rights. Men are seen to be the guardian of women and the protector.  They have to watch over women and make decisions for them. I feel this isn't fair because it showing that men are better than women and that’s not the case.
