I have a few questions about Islam
Well, duh. I'm assuming most of the readers of this thread are not very familiar with Classical Arabic.

If so, can you tell me what the original Arabic words are and how so many translators could have fucked them up that badly?and are not correct as for the one above the correct one is men have a degree of RESPONSIBILITY above them.
Why don't you open your eyes and see how often Muslim societies treat women like shit? What do you think is the reason for that? I think it might have something to do with the Qur'an not once saying that women and men are equal and should be treated equally.Men are told to be care takers and providers for their families and that is why is it said like that. Why dont you do alittle more ACCURATE research before you go around posting links to inaccurate sites.
By the way, the Qur'an says if women are captured in battle as men are taking over their town, the men are allowed to take them into their "possession" (just like in the Bible). The very concept of kidnapping women and taking them into possession is horrifying, and the fact that this is just a euphemism for rape is downright disturbing. How could a real God have said something so hateful and so obviously immoral?
"And all married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess." -Surah 4:24
