Hussein is no “extremist.” A manual of Islamic law certified by Al-Azhar, the foremost authority in Sunni Islam, as “conforming to the practice and faith of the orthodox Sunni community,” stipulates: “[A] woman may not leave the city without her husband or a member of her unmarriageable kin accompanying her, unless the journey is obligatory, like the hajj. It is unlawful for her to travel otherwise, and unlawful for her husband to allow her to.” (Reliance of the Traveller m10.3)
“Top PA religious official prohibits women from traveling without a male relative,” by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik, Palestinian Media Watch, December 27, 2020:
Although the PA likes to present itself as a secular authority, its religious leaders use the official PA TV station to demand a male-dominated society, in which women must be obedient to their husbands as part of their obligation under Islam.
The PA’s Grand Mufti – who was appointed by PA Chairman Abbas himself – was asked on his weekly TV program if a man’s wife is allowed to travel to Dubai with her daughters without a male relative accompanying them. The PA’s top religious official answered that she is not. She would have to be accompanied by “a man from her family”:
Official PA TV host: “The first question is that his wife wants to travel to Dubai with her daughters without the presence of an accompanying man from her family – is this allowed?”
PA Mufti Muhammad Hussein: “There has to be an accompanying man from her family on the trip.”
[Official PA TV, Fatwa, Dec. 16, 2020]
Although the Palestinian Authority might be considered religiously moderate regarding women’s rights compared to other Arab states, top PA religious leaders, including Mahmoud Abbas’ advisor on Islam, have been given time on official PA TV to tell Palestinian men that they are permitted, albeit with restrictions, to beat their wives. Women are taught to obey their husbands, not to leave home without their permission, not to contact Israeli police if their husbands are violent, and even to not refuse their husbands’ demands for sex because it is a husband’s right “to enjoy his wife at any time,” according to the Abbas appointed PA Mufti.
Abbas’ advisor Mahmoud Al-Habbash has explained on official PA TV that there are situations in which men are allowed to beat women, explaining that “as long as Allah permitted a certain type of beating, it is for the good. It is good for society and good for the woman and the man.” He added that it is OK for husbands, fathers, and brothers to beat disobedient women….

I can’t understand why this neanderthal cult is considered backward ? so forward thinking and progressive.

Over here, in the most Islamic shithole of Dar El-Islam, namely Egyptstan, which is home 🏡 to El-Azhar, every woman must have a male 👨 ‘mihrim’ as a companion every time she leaves her home or face mass groping, or even gang rape, at the hands of Koranimals who rape Egyptian Kafir females, especially tiny prepubertal girls whom they impregnate by 100 mg/day Clomid peri-coitally for 5 days, on a daily basis.

This man is in so much darkness. He thinks he serves God by regulating the joy out of people’s lives through intimidation and severe punishments.
Eur says
Anyone who thinks that way is a profound abnormal but that there are women who accept that submission is already totally incomprehensible. I do not understand how there are people who continue to insist on washing the image of Islam or any radical orthodox cult.
revereridesagain says
It’s not incomprehensible if they are threatened with beatings or death. What is nearly incomprehensible and certainly inexcusable are the women who enthusiastically join the males — there are no Muslim “men”, certainly not that little twit with the tornado on his head — in enforcing the oppression of their sisters. (Wasn’t it Monty Python that came up with the “Ministry of Silly Hats”? Or was that “Silly Walks”? I believe Muslim high mucky-mucks excel in both categories.)
Mojdeh says
Please see movie Submission in you tube i am sure still there, if not brand new you tube. The Mufti need Viagra still he can not please his Hiram. So i tell the Mufti f -up you can not submit me to you or ayatollahs same satanic as well. We never forget Mufti met Hitler as well. What a shame and disgrace.

Yes, Mojdeh–here’s “Submission pt 1”, made by Theo van Gogh and Ayaan Hirsi Ali:

This is in Dutch–I did see the short film with English subtitles in a theater, but I’m not sure if it is available on YouTube.
Theo van Gogh was murdered from makign this film about the Islamic persecution of women, and Ayaan Hirsi Ali needed 24-hour security due to death threats. She eventually had to flee the Netherlands for the United States.

Yes–this is orthodox Islam.

‘Palestine’: the new Saudi Arabia. If you don’t like women being allowed to show their faces or drive w/o a male relative in Riyadh, move to Rafah

Christopher Watson says
I long for the day when we, in the West, say ‘Enough is enough’ and ban all moslem immigrants and tourists from the moslem world. What have they brought us? Nothing. They have supplied us with precisely nothing of any value except stupidity and ignorance. if we Europeans or Americans said anything like what is in their holy book we would be arrested. Our leaders treat them ‘with respect’ for reasons beyond our understanding when they should be banned form Europe and the west. Their only export is oil and by 2030 France will have little need of it. How many other countries will follow their lead? If we allow them to increase their numbers what will Europe be like in 2050? France has close to 10% and there are weekly riots north of Paris.
tim gallagher says
Very well said, Christopher. I agree entirely. islam is such a backward load of primitive shit. It should not be allowed into any civilised non-Muslim country anywhere in the world. Muslims should be kept in their own crappy countries where they can go on living the way people lived in 7th century Arabia. I agree with your saying that they have brought the western world nothing but negatives. Nothing but barbaric garbage that should have disappeared from the human race centuries ago. Imagine anyone saying that, in the 21st century, women must not be allowed to travel alone. Unbelievably primitive garbage. That’s all that Islam is.

Please try to put the who, what, when and where briefly in the first 3 paragraphs, then the “why” after that, and then the background context after that – i am struggling to work out what happened. Please robert get a news editor on board

Jihad Watch gets its stories from respected news sources Some are better written than others, and some are translated from another language, that can make things more difficult.
OLD GUY says
Here you go LADIES, Islam wants your freedom of speech, movement and choice. Islam is the death of equal rights for everyone but especially WOMEN. If you are a FEMALE you need to look vary hard at the Islamic Ideology and those who are supporting islam as a legitimate religion.
ISLAMIC “MALES” wants to control your life and every thought you have.
When you VOTE for ISLAMIC candidates you are voting our civil rights out the window and especially WOMEN’S.
