... you know I am arab and lived there most of my life and the author of this post is full of it.
Hijab to hide from servants? Hijab because the husband wanted to hide his wives out of jealousy (to prevent them from getting any attention from anyone ever in their life) is 10000000x more likely. You think that somehow, muslim men of old were more enlightened than the rest of the world in their treatment of woman back in those days? Sorry cousin, but you are certified brainwash material. We enslaved our woman long before islam and we continued that trend when judiesm (islam and all others) was established. Proof is in our laws regarding obedience and how we treat women who break the laws. Even today, its ok for a man to go to europe, the usa or even dubai to have sex with anyone they want (even gay men wont get severely punished) but if a woman did the same she would be brutally stoned to death in public or jailed after public humilation. This is the reality of our countries and religion. I have seen it with my own eyes in Kuwait before the iraq invasion and in the Soudia. What a sad state we are in to allow such things to happen today and it explains why terrorists have flourished. Our people are too cowardly to fight back. Have some respect for yourself and tell the truth.The hijab was nothing more than mans jealousy and fear. This is why our women are so benign, unhappy, and timid. We turned them into mindless drones. Sad but 99.9% true.
Frankly, i hope for all your sakes that there is no god because if there is, i promise you that no jew, christian or muslim will be going anywhere near heaven. I dont know about other religions but I assume they are all the same. The religions are all man made and have perverted the truth and abused people over it for centuries and we keep letting it happen. Some of their teaching might be good, but the religions of jesus, god, and mohammed are all false on the basis of belief. Sorry to burt your bubbles.
