No sane person would leave anything valuable unguarded and then complain about thieves. Yes, stealing is wrong, but a wise person always takes care to secure what’s valuable and keep it out of sight of those who would desire it.

And before any #feminists start screeching about being compared to an object, they should know they have no right to complain when they compare the generality of men to trash everyday.

Crying about the use of an analogy doesn’t invalidate its truth and applicability to a situation. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ (who they slander as having been a feminist أعوذ بالله) compared the woman to a bent rib in an authentic Hadīth — an analogy!

Don’t get hung up on the usage of words in order to deflect the truth in their message. Islām doesn’t throw all the blame on one gender, each one has rules and responsibilities to prevent immorality. But it definitely points out that a woman’s dress plays a major role in why she’s harassed. Yes, thieves are wrong and sinful, but that doesn’t change that fact that one who leaves his valuables unguarded and uncovered is a fool.

Call it victim shaming if you will, but just know — it’s in the Qur’ān. Know that Islām is not #Feminism. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was not a #Feminist.

One who has a victim mindset will find an enemy even in her protector.

Thinking the world is against you is usually a phase people go through in their early teens — and then they grow up. Unfortunately, the #Feminists never really grew out of it.

Sure, when mankind begins to act like animals, taking their desires as Lords besides Allāh, abandoning the Sharī’ah, adopting other “isms” in place of it, and living lives of sin — then they will surely become enemies of one another and oppress, abuse, and torture. And men will naturally have the upper hand in their ability to do so because of the greater physical strength that Allāh has endowed them with.

But when society becomes upright and Sharī’ah is implemented in our lives, and we fear Allāh as he should be feared, then there is no greater ally to a believer than his/her fellow believer. And when this happens, then those men use their upper hand to ensure protection and security for the women under their care and the women of the Ummah at large. Take a look at our history, that’s mostly all you’ll see.

The cause of any oppression is sin, lack of Taqwā, ignorance, and the abandonment of the Deen — not gender. Women who don’t fear Allāh inflict their fair share of oppression upon men as well, it’s not purely one-sided.

Drop the boys-vs-girls rivalry, we’ve all graduated kindergarten.

— Al-Qawāreer

———

Sisters who have righteous husbands, brothers, fathers, male relatives, etc laugh at this type of dogma والله. Because all they’ve ever seen and felt from the males in their live is genuine concern for their well-being and security.

They are shields throughout the wars of life, and guides through foreign terrains. A far cry from being an “enemy”, rather one of the greates blessings she could ever be endowed with.

The Importance of the Day of ‘Āshūrā

While it’s normal for women to feel jealousy and to dislike to share their husbands, any woman (or man) who hates the act of polygyny in and of itself becomes a disbeliever.

Even worse are those women who label Muslim men who take on multiple wives via Halāl means as “cheaters under the guise of Islām”. Do you know the implications of such a grievous statement or belief? By default, such a label returns to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, the Sahābah, and most likely your Muslim great grandfather. لا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله

Speaking of “standards”, you want to know what’s really the standard default in the Qur’ān when it comes to marriage? It’s that each man should have a minimum of two wives, because Allāh started with “two”, not one. And then He سبحانه وتعالى said that if a man fears injustice, then just one wife. [Mentioned by Shaykh Ahmad Jibrīl حفظه الله in an old audio lecture]

Polygyny is part of our Deen and tradition as Muslims. But #Feminism demonizes the act and paints those who engage in it as evil and corrupt people. The reality is, it’s actually in favor of women and society in general. But obviously, #Feminist aren’t looking out for the well-being of women, as they claim.

Yes, most women dislike to share their husbands and even the thought makes them jealous. This is normal, even the wives of the Messenger ﷺ felt jealousy. But a real believing women has more jealousy over her religion and the Sunnah of her Messenger ﷺ — including polygyny. She can’t stand to hear it being outlawed or badmouthed, because she knows it’s revelation from Allāh عز وجل, let alone to hate it or those who engage in it properly.

Remember the days when slander, insults, and mockery used to grieve your heart, and then thank Allāh that now they only bring a smile to your face.

For the Muwahhid, they are the unexpected companions in life that remain more loyally by his side than any friend.

When you sense their absence, recheck your path. Perhaps you’ve lost your way.
