Tragedy of being a Muslim woman



The true Islam of Goodness and of simple prayers, fasting, alms and pilgrimage was hijacked by Arabs who in the name of God, Prophet and Quran developed an evil some Shariah to subjugate women- to have many wives, to divorce on whims and to stone to death any wife on charge of adultery.
The poor Muslim women acquiesce because they think that these are the commands of God and Prophet.
I read Quran many times understanding its meaning then it dawned upon me that Quran expects goodness and only goodness and all those harsh things were just coincidental and of that time.
1 There is no command for beard
2 There is no command for circumcision
3 There is no command that women should not come out of their home without accompanying mahram male.
4 On two occasions there are commands for veil and there were special circumstances and moreover veil was in vogue all over the World and similarly beard was in vogue.
The Prophet himself did not compile Quran in his life time. Why he did not do it ? Perhaps he knew that all those things are for specific circumstances and Quran itself says something like this “ We replace verses lost and forgotten by better ones” . When Quran was compiled in time of third Caliph it was in Kufi script and there were no diacritic or aerabs.
The sequences of chapters in Quran are altered. There are 28 chapters of Medina period when all laws were declared and these chapters are scattered. If one reads these 2w8 chapters in sequence then one finds how under circumstances commands were issued and altered time to time.
If one is on path of goodness then one must not fear anything and must not submit to in justice and inhumanity in name of God, Prophet, Quran or Islam.

The educated Muslim women must say good bye to wrong interpretations of Islam by orthodox and fanatics and come to simple Islam of goodness and justice and humanity.
