greeneggs while you waft around in your hijab/ jilbab / burqa endorsing Islamic misogyny but fully protected from its worst effects by British Law, spare a thought for your muslim sisters, who unfortunately don't have the same protection, living as they have to under Islamic Sharia law.
Women such as those in Afghanistan, who's clerics have successfully argued that they have divine right to beat their wives as it has been mandated so in the Quran.

Quran Verse 4:34 : Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great

Or those in Saudi & Yemen where womens testimony is half that of a mans:

"According to Yemen’s constitution, Shari’a (Islamic law) is the source of all legislation. Many laws contain provisions that discriminate against women, including the personal status law, the penal code, the citizenship law and the evidence law. In front of the court, a woman is not considered a full person; in some cases a woman’s testimony is not accepted at all (e.g. in cases of adultery and retribution), and in some other cases a woman’s testimony will be worth half of that of a man."
Al-Qur’an 2:282 "Oh! ye who believe! When ye deal with each other, in transactions involving future obligation in a fixed period of time reduce them to writing and get two witnesses out of your own men and if there are not two men, then a man and two women, such as ye choose, for witnesses so that if one of them errs the other can remind her."
Sahih al-Bukhari, Volume 3, Book 48, Number 826 : The Prophet said, "Isn't the witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?" The women said, "Yes." He said, "THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE DEFICIENCY OF A WOMAN’S MIND."

Or the numerous Islamic countries including Iran, Nigeria, Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Mali, and soon to be Iraq where young girls are married off in accordance with Islamic principles:
"Yemen has backtracked on protecting girls from forced marriage. In 1999, Yemen’s parliament, citing religious grounds, abolished the legal minimum age for marriage for girls and boys, which was then 15. In 2009, a majority in parliament voted to set 17 as the minimum age, but a group of lawmakers, contending that reinstating a minimum age would be contrary to Sharia (Islamic law), used a parliamentary procedure to prevent the law from going into effect."
Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al-Sheikh : It is incorrect to say that it's not permitted to marry off girls who are 15 and younger. A girl aged 10 or 12 can be married. Those who think she's too young are wrong and they are being unfair to her. We hear a lot in the media about the marriage of underage girls. We should know that Shariah law has not brought injustice to women.
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (4840) and Muslim (1422) : The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) married ‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) when she was six years old and the marriage was consummated when she was nine years old
Dr. Salih bin Fawzan, a prominent cleric and member of Saudi Arabia’s highest religious council : issued a fatwa (legal ruling) that asserted there is no minimum age for marriage. Girls could be married “even if they are in the cradle.”
Ibn Batal’s authoritative exegesis of Sahih Bukhari : The ulema [Islam's interpreters] have agreed that it is permissible for fathers to marry off their small daughters, even if they are in the cradle. But it is not permissible for their husbands to have sex with them unless they are capable of being placed beneath and bearing the weight of the men. And their capability in this regard varies based on their nature and capacity. Aisha was 6 when she married the prophet, but he had sex with her when she was 9 [i.e., when she was deemed capable]
The late Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution : A man can marry a girl younger than nine years of age, even if the girl is still a baby being breastfed. A man, however is prohibited from having intercourse with a girl younger than nine, other sexual acts such as foreplay, rubbing, kissing and sodomy is allowed. A man having intercourse with a girl younger than nine years of age has not committed a crime, but only an infraction, if the girl is not permanently damaged. If the girl, however, is permanently damaged, the man must provide for her all her life. But this girl will not count as one of the man's four permanent wives. He also is not permitted to marry the girl's sister.
www.theguardian.com/world/2014/mar/20/iraq-child-marriage-bill-human-rights : A spokesman for the justice minister remained defiant: "There are those who disagree with this law and we don't care about them because they are against Islam There are ones who think we should modify the law (which will be open to religious interpretation), but for the rest, it is an election campaign and we don't care about what they say.
