Im not saying she did mention the quran.
But, she made a statement saying that these are coming here to assault and degrade women and those things are in the Islamic culture. Clearly, you just listen to other people and not learn for yourself.
It's really not the case at all. And you won't find that in any verse of the quran or even in hadiths (collections of books of sayings/teachings of the prophet)
These men who come here and do hurt/attack/rape women or girls is a complete sin in islam. And a crime also in Shariah law.
And I find them quite frankly disgusting.
As for your response, I highly doubt you would get 5 different answers. As a Muslim we all follow the same teachings. There's no 5 ways to interpret one verse from our holy book. Which also mirrors similar teachings in the old Testament and the gospel.
If islam was the problem, why is it the fastest growing religion in the world. With more women reverting to islam than men. Islam gave the rights for women more than 1400 years ago to their own property, to vote (something that we women in the UK had to go fight for 100 years ago) and to go to university, the right to own business and work, and their own money, the right to divorce, their money is their own money, but the husbands money is both hers and his, a man must pay the roof over his wives head, he should even pay her breastfeeding provide her clothing, he should never hurt or insult her.
The quran also says dont backbite, dont lie, dont steal, dont spread rumours, dont spy, dont gamble, dont drink alcohol , dont take the property of orphans, dont murder, be kind to your wife. Be kind to animals, be kind to your Muslim neighbour and your non Muslim neighbour. Give charity and help the poor. Dont disrespect your parents. Thats a major sin to even groan or moan at your parents. The best charity you can give is water. Even a smile is charitable. Islam teaches men to respect women and lower your gaze. Regardless if she is wearing a hijab or not. Even the bible says cover your hair. Or shave it off. So it's not just the quran that says women should cover but the bible too! Which is incredible because I think nuns look fantastic.
And a lot of these what we believe, including the 10 commandments (as we believe in moses as well) are also in the bible.
Yes, you will get the odd foul pig of a man. Who will commit crimes and once he does so, he's really no longer a Muslim as he's gone against the laws of islam itself.
And he should be imprisoned.
I think if people actually sat down and learnt more about islam themselves than going what the media print and publicise they would have a more open mind on Muslims and islam.
