Gender Parity / Equality

*Despite the woman’s courtesy and act of kindness toward the man, once when she gives him life to live, and once when she gives him love to be alive, still he is her single most ungrateful adversary and opponent.

*I do believe in freedom of opinion and freedom of expression, but not when its against women.

*Centuries of false and distorted religions and cultures had deceived and deluded males to assume and presume their superiority and females inferiority.

*It is not the teachings of God and His Prophets and Messengers that subjugated and dehumanized women, it is the teachings of man that do in the name of religion.

*Everything in the universe had been created as pairs,equal but contrast,in order that Oness be only to God.

*God's wisdom preordained that everything would be created in two...Pairs equal in value and opposite in quiddity...They are not contradictory,but rather integrative,as in the creation of male and female.

*Discrimination against women started with the fallacy that blamed Eve for getting Adam out of heaven,while the opposite is true:Adam got us all out.

*There is no segregation in Islam of men and women,and these are cultural practices incorporated into Sunni and Shia faiths which has no basis in the Quran.

*If the woman is half of society,why then Western nations parliaments are not half men and half women?!.It is the Western democracies hypocrisy.

*Gender Parity:A term i fashioned to express male-female equality which must be infused in our minds.

*Gender distinction in function and environment stipulate one of them for the survival of the other.It does not compare preference among both to determine the importance of each of them to preserve life which makes them both equal,integral,and equivalent.

*The woman is integrating with the man,and her distinction with him comes about because she has the attribute of creating life and caring for it.

*Renewing human life and preserving it is the decisive role which God forged for the woman and honored her with.

*Muslim religious scholars gave the false impression to masses that a woman is deficient in mind and faith,and she is impure,in order to confine her and keep her under male control.

*Male religious scholars invented in the name of Islam,concepts of inherited social traditions,and fashioned inferior and negative perspectives of women that deprived her of her humanity,freedom,and rights.

*Male religious scholars has distorted Islam in order to be able to maintain their domination and control of society in general and women in particular.

*Islam came about to dispose male and female of clout of humans over humans,and emphasized on achieving justice,equality,and human dignity among gender.

*Confronting all and every value and legacy which refutate and deny the woman's physical and intellectual competence as a female is a necessity.

*Distorted stereotype image for the woman reflects negatively not only on the man,but also on the woman's grasp,and her faith in herself,which makes her believe to be the weakest link in the social structure.
