How Muslim Women are Treated

(Genesis 1:27; Galatians 3:28)

***DAILY PERSONAL PRAYER FOR YOU: Dear Lord, this nation is under your judgment for our sin, wickedness, and rebellion. Help me to be courageous as I stand for you in these perilous times. Use me as a beacon of your light in the darkness of our world today. Though our enemies surround us, the world around me curses you, help me to stand for your Truth that will ultimately defeat the lies of satan. May the evil of this world become so apparent, people will begin to bow their knee to you in repentance knowing YOU are their only hope and only answer! In the name of Jesus…AMEN!!!

A reminder what Islam is really about, especially for women! **WATCH THIS SPECIAL YOUTUBE VIDEO MESSAGE TO MUSLIM WOMEN FROM BILL KELLER! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCDLiCu2Spk

The Taliban in Pakistan invaded a school killing 132 children and 9 teachers, beheading many of the children and burning one of the teachers alive in front of her class. This was largely payback for the Nobel Peace Prize awarded Malala, a 17-year-old activist for the education of young girls in her native Pakistan. Malala embarked on her pursuit for all young girls in Pakistan to be educated at age 11, writing a blog under a pseudonym for the BBC detailing life under the oppressive Taliban occupation.

She made international news in October of 2012 when a Taliban gunman approached her and shot her at point blank range, one bullet hit the left side of Malala's forehead, traveled under her skin through the length of her face, and then went into her shoulder. She remained unconscious and in critical condition for several days after the attack, but later her condition improved enough for her to be sent to England for intensive rehabilitation.

Sadly, Malala continues to embrace the false religion of Islam that she was born into, the very religion that tried to silence her voice. As noble as her efforts are in helping to insure young girls in Pakistan receive an education, an even more noble effort would be to renounce the lies of the false religion of Islam and their teachings regarding women that have existed since the inception of Islam 1400 years ago! Islam is also about treating women as nothing more than slaves and the "property of their husband." What happened to Malala happens to women in Muslim homes around the world every day when they rebel against the teachings of this false religion born in the pits of hell!

In Islam, woman are not equal to men in any way. The Qur'an says that the testimony of a woman is not equal to that of a man. It says that the testimony of two women is required to be equal to the testimony of one man. Call in two male witnesses from among you, but if two men cannot be found, then one man and two women whom you judge fit to act as witnesses. (Qur'an 2:282 Dawood) Interestingly, Islam teaches the vast majority of those in hell are women. Ibn Abbas reported that Allah's Messenger said: I had a chance to look into paradise and I found that majority of the people was poor and I looked into the Fire and there I found the majority constituted by women. (Muslim, vol. 4, hadith 6597, p. 1432).

In the false religion of Islam, beating women is not only common, but something their "holy book" encourages. "And those (wives) you fear may be rebellious admonish; banish them to their couches, and beat them." (Qur'an 4:34, Arberry) Many hadiths encourage wife beating. Umar reported the Prophet as saying, "A man will not be asked about why he beat his wife." (Mishkat Al-Masabih, p. 693: Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah) Mohammed was also recorded to have beat his wives.

Of course, a woman's chief responsibility is to satisfy her husband sexually. Mohammad gave strong warnings to women who would not accommodate their husbands/masters desire. Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (p.) said, "If a man invites his wife to sleep with him an she refuses to come to him, then angels send their curses on her till morning." (Bukhari, vol. 7, hadith 121, p. 93) For the Muslim man, upon his death he believes there will be many virgins waiting for him. "Surely for the godfearing awaits a place of security, gardens and vineyards and maidens with swelling breasts, like of age, and a cup overflowing." (Qur'an 78:31-33, Arberry) In the world of Islam, women have no legal standing, and are little more than a man's punching bag and sex object.

I love you and care about you so much. Pray for Malala to come to know Jesus as her Savior, since no matter what she accomplishes in her life, without Christ when her journey is over she will die and end up in hell for eternity as ALL who reject fiath in Jesus will. Eternity in hell will make her long for the days she lived under the oppressive rule of the Taliban!

Why a woman would want to be part of the false religion of Islam is beyond me. They are believed to be inferior to men and little more than slaves who exist for the benefit of men. I have no clue why any woman would want to be part of these lies from the pits of hell, especially when you know the TRUTH about women as God tell us in His Word. All throughout the Bible, women have played an incredible role in the plan of God. We see women being used by God in incredible ways, helping to fulfill His Divine plan. Women have always played a key role in God's work, and I want to make sure we never lose sight of how important they are in the Kingdom of God.

THE LIE OF SATAN THROUGH THE TEACHINGS OF THE FALSE RELIGION OF ISLAM IS THAT WOMEN ARE INFERIOR TO MEN. THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD TEACHES THAT MEN AND WOMEN ARE EQUAL!!!

I want to encourage women who are following the lies of Islam that you are NOT inferior to a man. God made you EQUAL with men. He loves you, has a special plan and purpose for your life, and wants the best for you. The fact is a large percentage of women in Islam did not choose these beliefs or make a conscience decision to commit their lives to them, they were born or married into them. You cannot be born or married into Christianity. It is a choice, a decision you have to make to give your heart and life to Jesus. He loves you and wants to have an everlasting relationship with you. You don't need your parents or a man or anyone else to know Jesus as your personal Savior. It is a relationship you enter into by faith.

The fact is that all of us, men and women, are born with the sin of Adam in addition to those sins we commit during our life. It is our sin that separates us from God our Creator. But God loved us so much, He sent Jesus to die for our sins. That is why it is faith in Jesus alone, not Mohammed, but the Jesus of the Bible who is GOD that will save your soul. It is not too late. You can turn from the lies of Islam today and ask Jesus into your heart and life by faith and He will. Take a moment, pray, and ask God to open your heart and watch this video clip: http://www.liveprayer.com/plan.cfm
