Islam treats women purely as s*xual objects. The Quran (2:223) says “Your wives are a tilth for you, so go to your tilth when or how you will💔😡
Haruna Ibrahim, many of the claims you listed come from reading isolated translations without context, language, or Islamic law. Criticism is welcome, but it must be accurate. Islam does not treat women as s*xual objects; it introduced legal dignity to women in a 7th-century world where they were inherited as property and had no guaranteed rights at all.
The verse “your wives are a tilth for you” (2:223) is not describing ownership or pleasure, it is a metaphor about family, intimacy, and responsibility within marriage. The verse was revealed to stop harmful superstitions about marital relations and to clarify permissibility within a lawful relationship, not to reduce women to farmland. The Qur’an itself explains the relationship: “They are garments for you and you are garments for them” (2:187) protection, comfort, dignity, and mutual care. The Prophet (peace be upon him) also said: “The best of you are those who are best to their wives.”
Regarding rights: inheritance being different does not mean inferior. In Islam, a man is financially responsible for the family housing, food, clothing, dowry, and maintenance, while a woman keeps her wealth entirely for herself. So the shares correspond to responsibility, not worth. Testimony in 2:282 is about financial contracts in a specific commercial context at a time when women were not normally engaged in trade, not a declaration about intelligence or credibility. In other matters, a woman’s testimony equals a man’s, and sometimes overrides it (such as motherhood and breastfeeding rulings).
Divorce is also not one-sided. A woman can initiate separation (khul‘), place conditions in marriage contracts, and go to court for annulment due to harm. Polygamy was restricted, not introduced by Islam and tied to strict justice: “If you fear you cannot be just, then marry only one” (4:3). As for 4:34 verse, The word idribuhunna has been weaponized by critics, but the Sunnah the lived example of th)provides the "Firewall" against domestic violence. classical scholars clarified that “strike” does not mean violence or injury; the Prophet never hit a woman and said: “Do not harm the female servants of Allah.” Any abuse contradicts his example.
The marriages of the Prophet (peace be upon him) were not driven by desire but social responsibility. widows, alliances, protection of vulnerable women, and legal reforms. Even critics acknowledge most of his marriages were to older widows, not young women. As for Maria, she was not a pr******te nor abused; she lived in his household with dignity and bore him a child, and Islam continuously encouraged emancipation of slaves until the institution disappeared.
Blaming Islam for cultural crimes like honor killings, forced marriages, or abuse confuses culture with religion. The Qur’an commands: “Live with them in kindness” (4:19) and “Do not inherit women against their will.” When Muslims violate this, they are violating Islam not practicing it.
To Haruna Ibrahim: Calling Islam a "s*x cult" ignores the 1,400 years of civilization where women were protected from being treated as "disposable machines" or "trophies". A real Muslim man does not "escape" his marriage duties; he stands by his wife even when her body changes from childbirth, honoring her as the one who carried his lineage.
The "poison" is not in the religion; it is in the "wicked" abandonment of the Prophetic standard. We choose reason, humanity, and consent by following the One who said: "The most complete of believers in faith is the one with the best character, and the best of you are those who are best to their women."
May Allah guide us all to truth, protect women everywhere from oppression, and allow us to speak with justice and understanding.
Āmīn 🤲🏼
