theam Alum peace be unto you how are you
how are you brother good good thank God
thank God everything is good
alhamdulillah alhamdulillah the Creator
is most kind and most merciful and he's
hooked us up so glad to have met you
absolutely and I'm glad you're here on
the dewise women yes in Islam and the
people want to know is the woman in
Islam subjugated is she oppressed or is
she truly liberated what do you got to
say uh I would say that Islam in the
middle of sth century by the blessing of
Allah subhana tala had protected honored
gave rights to women that today in the
west and any any country that you would
choose women do not have similar rights
like the Muslim woman had in the middle
of 7th Century now someone says come on
now this is fairy tale stuff you know we
see these women they're behind the veil
you know our women over here they can
wear what they want bikini top in the
middle of the street your women are over
here you got them in these loose fithing
clothes with the veil on top what is
this we living back uh 4 or 500 years
ago what kind of freedom is this Islam
honored the woman and the creator of a
woman that is Allah subhana T had
honored the women so much that their
value as human beings is up to their own
character up to their own manners and
manners is what we call in Islam
religion religion is your Noble manners
so let's say for marriage for example
Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said
that a woman is pursued for marriage for
four reasons her money her beauty her
social status and her maners that's her
Dean think about it from woman's
standpoint you can be born very
beautiful or not you can be born into
money or not you can be born to a family
with high social status or the lowest
social status you have absolutely no
control of that what is the only element
that you're in control of your character
your Dean your manners and that's the
measuring stick in Islam Islam when the
woman is covered only her face and her
hand is being made as a human being with
value not an object for desire not in a
materialistic way but a human being that
her character and her stance and her
education and her courtesy is what
matters if you look at Virgin Mary in
most of the pictures that our Christian
Brothers have even though it's forbidden
Islam to have uh to depict of any holy
messenger or character by picture but if
you look at the picture whatever that
dress the Virgin Mary you see in all the
pictures that is the Muslim woman dress
code yeah why if you don't got nothing
against that then why is it bothering
you that this woman instead of wearing
less she wants to wear more absolutely
and then you get people that actually
object to that at the same time people
pierce their skins mutilate their bodies
with tattoos and piercing and dying
their hair different colors and doing
all horrible things that actually if it
was a disease they would be running the
doctor to cure the skins from and that's
freedom of style or fashion and so on so
forth for a woman naturally to protect
her honor and beauty and and and and
self to the one who would be deserving
of it that's the husband then that's a
problem
OB obviously convoluted Logic the same
time the honor that Islam gave to the
woman a woman not to be touched unless
to a man that is deserving of her that a
man that would give her the title of a
wife not a sexual partner or a whatever
title mistress or girlfriend that they
have a man who would be responsible for
her own children not she would be a
single mom or like nowadays the most
important thing that you see well let's
think about the common baby put him up
for adoption you see organizations that
actually uh uh uh Target the devastation
of datings with with elimate children
and actually there's a an organization
in New Jersey and and and it made me cry
to hear the commercial that actually uh
if you have a baby no questions as bring
it to us do not kill it do not throw it
in the garbage to die in the cold give
us the baby and we're not going to ask
you any questions that is not a result
of Islam that is a result of being
against Islam and not following the
rules of Allah
now tell us let's go back in time a
little bit yes because we believe as
Muslims ones who have submitted
consciously to the one God the creator
of all that exists that he created us in
original goodness so if we look back to
what some other ways of life wasn't it
that now some other ways of life they
were debating if the woman had a soul
that she is the the outcome original sin
and and all these kind of what do we got
to say about that uh for example and and
this is not in the true teachings of
prophet Muhammad wasallam it's whether
made intentionally or through a Mis uh
translation in one of the early scribes
of Christianity they claimed that it was
Eve that deceived Adam into disobeying
God and listening to the devil and by
that all Humanity after they were
supposed to be living in Paradise now we
have to suffer here on Earth so the
first sin the original sin was committed
by Eve allowing Adam to be deceived you
look at the Quran and this is one of the
liberations The Liberation moments of
women in
Islam it is the Shan who deceived them
both into disobeying Allah subhana T and
out of paradise uh till the Dark Ages
there were probably 3 to four million
women that were burned at the stake why
their bodies for reproduction uh you
know they're sinful they're dirty and
and all these kind of things that's not
what Islam is teaching that's not what
any prophet of God is teaching that's
not the teachings of Jesus peace be upon
him that that's not the teachings of
anyone and and for that if a Woman Cooks
well or she does something out of the
normal somebody's jealous the easiest
thing is just to burn him at the Stak
matter what they were doing historically
absolutely in a matter of fact there's a
tremendous knowledge the herbal
knowledge of the women of the middle
centuries and the Dark Ages that would
have benefited Humanity tremendously and
that herban knowledge was burned to
ashes with the women that carried it and
they were burned at the steak that was
not Islam that was not even true
teachings of Jesus peace be upon him
that's the people that
actually went against women and went
against the law of Allah subh tal so now
we see that Islam is truly liberating
the women because Islam God Almighty he
doesn't blame the woman for this no
first sin does he absolutely not what
does Islam teach Islam teach that a man
and a woman get exactly the same reward
and many verses in the Quran you know
the people who are patient the people
people who are righteous the people who
are praying the people who are giving
charity men or women men or women after
each description will get tremendous
reward from God when they do that a
woman gets exactly the same reward like
a man and a woman is a major part of
society and you know look at another
honor that you know Allah subh bestowed
upon women who is the greatest woman of
Islam ever Virgin Mary the only Holy
Scripture that has Virgin Mary's name on
it is in the Quran Jesus's mother yes
there's a whole chapter named after her
in the my own daughter's name Isam yeah
she's nothing like her but at least we
got the good name yes but Subhan Allah
that's that's an honor bestowed upon
Virgin Mary the greatest woman that ever
lived and will ever live mine too that's
amazing absolutely so so you know that
honor there I'll give you another
example with you know in America today
Allah subhana had blessed me with four
daughters I can decide you know what I
want to give my money like let's say
Leona Helmsley the owner of hug real
estate in New York give her money to
dogs not to her grandchildren or
children in Islam that's totally
forbidden she has a guaranteed right of
inheritance and the woman in Islam
inherits her father brother husband son
even if she's a grand a grandmother she
has the right if her son or daughter
passed away she would have the right to
inherit her grandchildren if they passed
away again she inherits from everyone
but only her money is for her every male
around her respons responsible Financial
for her she shares their money and she
can ener them let's take a break this is
amazing some amazing facts you're
learning so much sit tight to learn more
Jihad often mistranslated as holy war
the word Jihad means to struggle Islam
does not preach violence it does not
preach vicious holy war it certainly
does not condone Terror and suicide
bombing Islam preaches compassion
tolerance and Justice find the truth
about Islam call toll-free 877 whyislam
or visit whyislam.org order your free
copy of the Quran today back here on the
dean show with the author of the lies
about Muhammad Imam Mustafa Zade and
those are some more lies that people try
to deceive people with some people
unintentionally they just don't know
they just blindly following what some
other ignor people might be saying but
now those sincere open-minded humble
hearted people are coming to us to learn
so they're learning that Islam does not
oppress the woman but actually uplifts
her doesn't it absolutely tell us you
mentioned that she has a right to
inherit which she didn't have before yes
they were burning women they were
discussing if women had a soul these
were the other religions yes but Islam
said that as you said earlier that Islam
doesn't blame the woman for that first
sin committed this is original sinal
totally wrong totally wrong okay so we
got that right to inherit right to bear
her own name wasn't this something that
now the husband would put his last name
on the woman because this was like his
property why go far at the turn of the
20th century exactly till 1882 in
England the beacon of our Western
democracy a woman could not stand up in
court she was not considered a legal
entity and she could not own property it
has to be in the name of her brother
father or husband she was not a legal
entity till 1882 till 1882 82 we're
about to get into the 20th century and
that was in England Elizabeth Blackwell
the first physical uh you know uh female
physician in England and in Europe for
that matter the most opposition that she
got and resentment she got from other
females how could you want to be in a
profession that is supposed to be a
profession of males not only that they
treated women that horribly but the
females themselves were so brainwashed
that they did not owe even know their
own worth and they opposed her look at
Islam mandated education for women at
the middle of 7th Century mated they had
businesses they had ownership they have
the right to speak even women went to
Prophet Muhammad wasallam like almost
the leaders of opposition
party was famous by and she literally
saved the life of the prophet in one of
the battles one man wanted to hit him
with a dagger in the Battle of she threw
herself on him and she received a stab
in her own shoulder saving the prophet's
wife she came to Prophet Muhammad wasam
and said oh prophet of Allah all the
verses that are you know revealed from
the Quran so far are talking about men
or talking to men and I I don't see
anything for women and because of that
that was the occasion inab the famous
verse that you know the believing women
and the believing men and the righteous
women and righteous men and and the
praying women and praying men all going
to get equal
rights and you know these are the rights
that Islam gave U uh out of the you know
uh uh uh uh the first pledges that the
Muslim gave women gave pledges to
Prophet mammad Ali wasallam and even in
you know Scholars would tell you in the
science of narrating the Hadith of
prophet Muhammad Ali wasallam women
narrators of the Hadith and the leading
one with the the prophet's wife are more
truthful than the average man and
they're praised for that yeah
it's so the honor of their and at the
same time look at how mothers are
respected Islam a man came to Prophet
Muhammad wasallam and said oh Prophet
who is most deserving of my
companionship he said your mother he
said all right we know that then who he
said your mother he said oh right
Prophet who then who is it your mother
the man out of desperation obviously
said then who is it your your father so
so the look at their so they are our
mothers and the best thing that a Muslim
can do is to pray to God on time the
second thing is to do well by parents
yeah and in the parents the mother is
sacred the mother is a woman yeah
and if you go throughout the Muslim
world and see how mothers are treated
Subhan Allah it's it's amazing and so
when people to come to say that they're
subjugated or you know you couldn't be
further from the truth so in Islam the
the mother gets the gold she gets the
silver and the bronze and the father
gets the consolation the father gets
gets the word of being
around amazing amazing so let's be fair
because somebody might have heard and
said you know what how is this when the
witnessing of of a woman is one 2 to one
that's a very good point or The
Inheritance that is only half that of a
man etc etc these are very two points
let's take one after the other the first
one about the witnessing what people do
not understand is that witnessing varies
depending on the situation for example
the verse of the Quran 282 that Allah
says that bring to men as Witnesses and
if you that you have only one man then
replace that missing man by two women
that's a business transaction that's for
recording debts and the reason that
Allah subh in the beginning made it to
men Witnesses not one man witness not
because one man is a half a witness is
for one man to remind the other so when
you replace that man with two women why
did you replace him with one woman
because you wanted the two women
independently remind each other without
having to interact with a man that might
be foreign to them and that is one
special situation for example you go to
a
very uh important and significant event
which is a husband accusing his wife of
cheating or vice versa a woman's
testimony is exactly the same testimony
as a man she would testify four times
that he's cheating or he will testify
four times that she is cheating and her
testimony is equal the same in crimes of
murder if one woman is there and she is
credible like she did not is not known
to be lying or have mental capacity
issues her testimony is enough to
convict you know 10 men so it varies so
they go to these exceptions and they
make it the general rule that is not
true when it comes to inheritance
actually women get a more than fair
chair of inheritance for example the
rule in Islam who would inherit what is
has nothing to do with the gender the
number one rule is the position of the
generation is it a Young Generation that
needs more money to overcome the
obstacles of life or it's an old
generation that live their life already
meaning I have a mother and I have a
daughter and I pass
away yes my daughter would get half of
the inheritance that my son would have
and I'll tell you the reason later but
my daughter gets more money than my own
mother even though my relationship with
my mother is stronger than my daughter I
could marry so many times and I have 50
daughters but I have only one mother my
mother gets less than my daughter and
they're both females why because my
daughter is uh of the generation that is
a generation that is about to receive
light life so she gets more inheritance
the second thing is who is responsible
for whom it's not because she's a woman
or he's a man the reason is in Islamic
law the father is responsible for the
daughter then if he passes away her
brother then if if she's married then it
is the father then if he passes away
it's the son they all responsible for
her and she inherits them all her
inheritance her own money is only for
her if she likes she can give to them if
not it's their it's only their money and
they still be responsible for her
another example um a a woman that works
you know we have so many households in
Islam that the woman works and the
husband works the husband and wife both
Works her money by Islamic law is all
hers if she wishes she can give him some
or she can support in the household and
spend over the children he can't take
her money he cannot take care his money
she has rights in his money she can put
her hand in his wallet pocket and take
money if it's Justified he has to spend
over her and her children if she wishes
to give him from her income fine if not
he has no right to touch one penny
amazing it's starting to clear up many
of the misconceptions and fog and tell
us now why is it with all this hype and
misinformation more women is it true are
coming to Islam here in America in UK
All Around the World in Europe than men
it's the world's fastest growing
religion Islam I have been given a class
uh for U over five6 years now for new
converts to Islam 90% of the newcomers
and people accept Islam are
females so if it's that subjugating and
that unfair and that intolerant of the
one position would somebody explain to
me that mystery that's a unless it's
totally the opposite of the truth
totally the opposite and as you see the
go to the severe exception and mutilate
it and make it the general rule for
example I you know every time I speak to
someone or women in Saudi Arabia are not
allowed to drive so let's say the law in
Saudi Arabia is very protective of women
and does not want them to be exposed to
be alone with a man that they're not
responsible for there's 57 countries why
you focus on that one country for that
one specific thing and leave the other
56 countries where women are driving not
in
day uh they go to rural areas in
Afghanistan and Pakistan and they're
very hit with poverty Afghanistan is the
third poorest country in the world and
go in rural areas where people are
illiterate do not have you know the the
the education or the knowledge of Islam
and only picture these people as if
these victims of poverty are you know
the whole Islam and the whole 1.6
billion population Subhan Allah amazing
amazing we'll be right back with more
here on the dean show have you ever
wondered what Islam and Muslims are
truly about what do Muslims believe who
was Muhammad do Muslims believe that
Jesus will return is Islam respectful of
other beliefs what does the Quran say
about women would you like to learn the
truth about Islam would you like to read
the Quran for yourself find the answers
for yourself call toll-free 877 why
Islam or visit whyislam.org back here on
the dean show with Imam Mustafa Z we're
talking about women in Islam and clearly
now people are getting the opposite of
what they've been told yes Islam doesn't
oppress the woman Islam uplifts the
women and I think tell me what you think
that women are getting sick of being
used and abused you want to sell a candy
bar a Coca-Cola uh Pepsi you got to put
this naked woman on there and they're
not being respected and I think the
smart women they're seeing this so they
see that Islam is uplifting me it's
protecting me it's not letting be hard
and actually I answer that one of the
claims that Robert Spencer puts in his
book that we refuted by the lies about
Muhammad is that he says when Muslim
women are treated like Commodities in
Muslim world and I had to answer excuse
me there's a multibillion dollar
industry called the pornography industry
in America who you think is the victim
of that multi-billion industry it's the
woman who look at the AIDS of infections
women and men like and look at the
ratios in Muslim countries statistically
it's almost non-existent in Muslim
countries look at the divorce rates in
Muslim countries and some of them are
the poorest countries in the world where
divorce is more possible to happen than
and you cannot even compare and what I
even you know and I want to tell our
Muslim sisters who need to answer to
this who said that the Muslim women are
complaining did you ask the Muslim women
the wom that were in the v did you ask
him well did someone hold the gun to
your head and ask you to put this over
your head in the morning or you wearing
it on your own love and obedience to God
and the way he uplifted you and he
respected you and your body that it's
not something a showcase for for some
materialistic thing did you ask Muslim
woman
no ask the Muslim woman this is
important those women need to go talk to
the women and ask them tell us also
before we come to an end but they put
someone on TV and she tells her story
she she was born in a Muslim household
and now she wrote a book and she
you know been given the microphone and
she says that you know Islam was doing
this and that to me it was oppressing me
and I had to run away and this is Islam
what do you got to say and the answer to
that is where Islam is the law the law
of Islam is Quran and Sunnah please with
your Superior knowledge show me the Ayah
in the Quran the verse in the Quran or
the correct Hadith of the Prophet that
proves what he's saying that it's not
your dad committing a crime against you
but it's actually the law itself in
Quran and Sunnah and you're going to be
wrong and most of these people and I
would willing to put that challenge out
there that they do not even know how to
recite one Ayah of the Quran one correct
of prophet mammad wasallam and that's
why they are more interviewed than
someone like me now you're available if
CNN Fox News wants you to come on are
you willing to come on any time any
topic of Islam and do not even give me 5
minutes for Preparation I'll go as is
now how could people get a hold of you

lies about Muhammad
gmail.com uh you can go to the website
of the lies about
muhammad. and my information also in the
book itself so much to talk about you

last and final messenger sent to mankind
closing comments and advice for the
sincere person out there who you know
what he's like or she's like you know
Islam is making sense what do you got to
say to them well Islam is making sense
is probably the most common thread of
all the brothers and sisters that
accepted Islam they all come to me and
some of them are mostly Highly Educated
everything about Islam makes sense why
because it's the law of Allah subhana wa
tala bringing you the best in life and
the best guidance and because he created
you he created the manual by which you
live your life and of course everything
will make sense inshallah thank you very
much and again again I just have to

Muslims thank you so much and I'm sure

uplifts the woman she's sick of being
used and Abus for her body Islam makes
that woman someone who you respect for
her mind someone who you respect not use
and abuse those most precious things to
us we protect those things but the
Muslim woman is more valuable than any
car any commodity any diamond any of
these things there are our mothers our
sisters these are the most precious
things to us and you've gotten to learn
how much and how important the Muslim
woman and her role in Islam oh it's
