Did you read the comments. Religion and politics.
I’ve been looking up on Muhammad to see what kind of person he was. Although he didn’t apparently harm women and children in battle some of rest of them could particularly women.
This author who said he’s not particularly fond of him but to be fair.
It cleared up what current Muslims use and turned around for themselves today. He was more civilized for that time then these sadistic cowardly mentally ill unprofessional combat wise lucky for some bad for others backwards fools running loose today.
it clears up things like a near impossible rule of a woman or girl is raped they must have 4 witnesses, It was meant to protect women from false accusations or strayed away. But they turned it around to protect the rapist.
Then woman only half a man was also meant to protect the woman… Not the way they try to use it today.
He treated women with great respect. His first wife, Khadija, was originally his boss – she needed man to run her camel-train business. He was devoted to her and her alone until her death.
He insisted on the equal treatment of all wives – and the Qur’an speaks of the importance and difficulty of this. He gave wives the right to divorce, he effectively stopped the killing of wives who strayed (a requirement of Jewish law) by requiring 4 eyewitnesses to adultery (pretty much impossible), he required that women were treated as half a man from the point of inheritance (rather the previously as Zero). He transformed the treatment of women – without getting anywhere near what we would regard today as acceptible equality – probably as much as it was possible at the time.
Muslims used to take pride in the fair treatment of women and regarded Europeans/Christians as totally backward for their (Greek derived) treatment of women as male possessions. Sadly, under largely Wahhabi influence, some muslims have sunk back into pre-muslim ways
