She calls herself “every Islamaphobe’s worst nightmare,” and, yes, she’s also a feminist. Linda is the executive director of the Arab American Association of New York.

Not to be rude but this is the definition of an oxymoron
Layla you obviously don't understand Sharia law. Which is derived from the doctrines of islam
Well how are those awesome countries doing now. Ah shit right. They're stoning rape victims, making women property and killing gays for kicks. Gosh do i love this peaceful religion.
Wait also... your brilliant counter argument is... Somalia? Like seriously? Didn't they have a famine like t years ago which killed a quarter of a million people? Almost one in 5 children dont reach age 5? Life expectancy 51 years? And i thought it was like a terrorist hub as well? But fuck it cos women can fucking vote XD.
Layla unfortunately most Muslims don't think like that. They follow the way of their prophet and you should know what that means
Layla not really. His biography is full of horrific deeds not to mention his child wife
That's the luxury of living in the states, you can craft an Islam the suits you based on your opinions.
But that's what many Christians do as well, is it not?
Yes, it's what many Christians do. And I don't see anything wrong with ree crafting medieval belief system to fit modern ideals. If they reform Islam so that it fits with Western Society, more power to them

Um women in Islam have for rights then men do here are a few examples of the rights women have
1 they own property
2 the husband has to do everything
3 the woman is allowed to keep her money
@@princesszeldaprincess447 as yes she is so empowered
*Can't go outside without a male escort
*Husband is allowed to beat her
*If a rape victim doesn't have 3 Male witnesses she is stoned
*She can be divorced by her husband with just a few words
*She is forced to wear the hjab and Burka or she is flogged or stoned
*she only gets half of what a man gets in inheritance
*her testimony is worth half that of a man
*She is basically considered a child
But please keep going about how great women have it in Islam
@@princesszeldaprincess447 Um...
Sahih International
Men are in charge of women by [right of] what Allah has given one over the other and what they spend [for maintenance] from their wealth. So righteous women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband's] absence what Allah would have them guard. But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance - [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them. But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them. Indeed, Allah is ever Exalted and Grand.
Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females.
And whoever among you cannot [find] the means to marry free, believing women, then [he may marry] from those whom your right hands possess of believing slave girls.
"In particularly here in the United States"
yea lady, in a country where you have the right to be, "strong and independent"
Yeah .. what‘s your point? She never said that it is easier in the islamic world.
She can be herself, what‘s wrong with that? Let her be.
David Bak Islam itself won’t let her be. That’s what we are drawing attention to. She is lying to Muslims as well as the Non-Muslim public. She’s a con artist and she should absolutely be exposed.
@@davidbak6984 bcs she acts like Islam has nothing to do with the patriarchy and misogyny that is in the Islamic world, where it has everything to do. She's dodges off the Misogyny in Islam as Misogyny in the culture and politics, rather than Islam itself, but then Quran and sever Hadiths itself has clear misogynistic claims. Islam was born in a ancient middle eastern culture, thus that primitive culture is basically part of Islam.
@@davidbak6984 because shes advocating for the west to be more like the islamic world. Shes an advocater for sharia.
Agreed
I'm a Muslim and I disagree. Islam and Feminism clash when it comes to many of the issues that are brought up in the modern discourse. I feel like Muslims have to be honest when it comes to our religion and just say it as it is. Islam and Feminism are generally not compatible with maybe one or 2 similarities.
Well said bro 😊
Yessssss❤❤❤❤❤
Prophet Muhammad being a rapist and marrying 6 year old at 51
Thank you for your honesty 👍🏻
Thank you so much for your honesty. 🙏🙏🙏
Hilarious load of nonsense. Go to Saudi Arabia and express your feminine views and enjoy your reward.
She gonna get stoned and raped and tortured. Lol i love Islam. It's so fond of equality between rights of the sexes and all that.
Why do you thing that Saudi Arabia is quintessentially Muslim? Why do you have to pick an extreme example, which most denounce as Muslim, to prove your point, like there's no way one could be Muslim without sticking to the Saudi version of Wahhabi Islam?
Be neutral even with what doesn't align with your convictions!

How does she pray with nail polish on her fingers? And her brows are so well groomed; I thought Islam prohibit hair plucking? She's not following the rules?
banana aya playa what?
Rita Choung you are correct
When truth triggers 🤣
They don't have to, they just judge everyone else for not kissing their evil asses.
She is probably a salty Christian pretending to be a Muslim.
How can you be a feminist and a muslim at the same time. Don't those two
things completely condradict themselves? It makes zero sense to me.
+butryk22 It's like saying you support a killing of animal movement when your vegan
I know right? It's like being a hardcore capitalist and a devout follower of Jesus Christ!
Confirmed Russian Bot lol
vuk96zj islam was teaching equality 1400 years ago. When rulers would bury women alive and see women as weak and a burden. Yes, islam says a man is supposed to protect his wife. There is nothing wrong with that. Islam says a wife is supposed to provide for his wife. How is that sexist. England has been a Christian country till modern times and they wouldn't allow women to vote or work. They would force there religion on different countries and cultures in the British empire and slaves. A man is physically stronger than a man. That's why women athletes and body builders take male steroids. It's a fact. And that's what islam says, but that doesn't mean a women is incapable. All these islamic countries that are sexist. People don't realise there is a difference between culture and religion and these countries are blinded by culture. Honor killing happen all over the world. They are absolutely terrible but they happen for culture and family status, not religion.
Imaana Mahmood, has the combination of islamic brainwashing and islamically encouraged inbreeding really rendered that stupid???
Islam claims that men are a degree above women and are their guardians who can discipline them for being disobedient as prescribed by allah to protect them. An ideology that only allows multiple wives but not multiple husbands is not teaching equality. An ideology which claims that men are the guardians of women (who can discipline them when they are disobedient) as prescribed by allah to protect them is not teaching equality.

Move to Iran or Saudi Arabia and tell me how easy it is to organize a women’s march there
Saudi Arabia and Iran are not led by real muslims. If you wanna know about Islam, i suggest you so some research with an open mind and stop believing BS propaganda from the zionist owned media
Ulfred Danheimer Islam is the truth
@@Soldierofgod96 islam has some characteristics that no religion has when ever something blast, killing, bombings, terror happen they are ready to say that theses muslims are not real muslims
@Abdullahi Yusuf What is Pbut mean?
@@Soldierofgod96 I didn’t put down the religion. I merely stated a fact-there are countries where a woman can still be stoned to death for adultery-that’s not female empowerment, it’s just a fact.
Funny how Imams all over the world consistently preach the opposite.
nice divorce rate and cheatinf rate going for you
no its priests
"I consider myself to be a feminist, but not in the traditional sense"
Imagine saying "I consider myself to be an atheist, but I believe in god"
I consider myself to be vegan, but I meat everyday
An Atheist, but not in the traditional sense is also funny
@두유 no it does not. not everything has spectrum. it is just like if you are an atheist. you do not believe in god. there is no such thing as you half believe in god or i believe in god 30%. then ur not an atheist.
@@smartspy007 Feminism has a spectrum. People calling themselves Muslims have a spectrum as well.

Trying to learn about Islam from Linda Sarsour is like trying to learn about how to butcher meat from a lifetime vegan 💀
Facts
@jasmin wow, what a parable 😆 😆 😆 good one. All praise to Allah alone, as a Muslim, I am embarrassed by her interpretation of Islam. Don't worry; she is a paid actress sellout. Complete contradiction from the beginning to end.
christians are violent
More like learning how to be a vegan from a butcher
Good hearing this from a Woman
why is it some women wear hijabs constantly and some only wear them to pray or goto mosque.... but when non Muslim women travel to Muslim countries they are expected to cover their head or get hassled for not doing so isn't that a little against the whole purpose of judging..... just wondering
+joi williams no? non muslim women don't have to cover their hair. unless its a country like saudi arabia or iran where is mandatory for all women to, otherwise in other countries non muslims don't have to. so no what you're saying is incorrect.
+mer521993 I am asking why??? not making a statement.... just curious. because I seen a video about a Syrian refugee and she was speaking of some of the new freedoms she has the not having to wear a hijab in public was one of them and going out for jog alone was another?????
going for a jog alone might be a new freedom because where she lived wasn't safe to go alone for a jog, hence I'm guessing one of the reasons she's a refugee and decided to leave the danger behind. and no, you asked why non muslims had to wear the hijab, they don't.
*in some parts of Saudi Arabia and in Iran and Afghanistan. Guess why? Bc they are countries with stupid governments and dictatorships.
I am so against the hijab, but I even wear it in Turkey. I think if you are going to visit a country you should respect their customs. And I have natural blonde hair, I stand out. Better to cover my differences.
you should go on a tour in Palestine. Let's see how long you can last there.
@Star I don't remember Palestine being a part of Israel, so how is Israel an Apartheid state?
Gaza wants to be free? then why not go to the Egyptian border and protest? less security there? they protest for the wall in Gaza to fall but in reality they're the one that turned Gaza into a terror base (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_disengagement_from_Gaza).
also, more than 5 million people visit the Palestinian territories every year, so yea good luck with your 'i'm a victim' propaganda.
The idea of modesty in Islam is so people can judge her for her character and not the way she looks, and yet she still wears heavy make up, eye liner, nail polish to enhance her looks.Why? lol
Beakko 380 true brother
To attract men. That's why we do it!!!!
Loretta Harris not allowed in islam
It may not be allowed but why would she wear makeup. I can think of no other reason. She is beautiful. Probably without makeup.
Dustin yup and I have no problem with it
I do judge you by your character Linda, and it's an awful character. Please campaign in the countries you speak of for women rights. Start with Saudi, you can even drive there now 👍
Why hate Jews in Saudi Arabia when she can do it in America
👏👏👏
A true muslim practicing Taqiyya.
Taqiyya mean you can lie and pretend that you weak and friend , but the truth , you will kill non muslims when you became strong muslim with thousands soldiers on your side of islam
Taqiyya is only practiced in some sects of Shi’a Islam which is a minority you twat
maybe her parents are from there.
What is taqiyya again?
@@hex1147 maybe then she just doesnt know the quran?
quran.com/4/34
Linda Sarsour says "to be able to judge me by my character" yet when she is wrong she gets angry and says "you have no right to judge."
Indeed
"The idea behind modesty in Islam is that people should be judging me by my character and not how I look" Okay, then why do you put on lipstick and eyeliner to enhance your beauty?
because she can, you are noone to judge
@George Askeladd
people like to feel beautiful for themselves, I wear makeup at home and "enhance my beauty" at home away from other people's eyes as well as outside. The assumption that just because you're wearing what makes you feel beautiful is for validaty or distraction from you as a person is nonsensical. If people are so shallow they can't look beyond makeup and see a person in front of them then the issue is with them.
@@meowriyam5467 she can’t lol. Lipstick and make up is haram. Women only put it on so they can attract men, they don’t want to admit it but it’s true, I’ve argued with a lot of women about this and they always switch the topic about how “men don’t lower their gaze” it’s pathetic
@@anonymous4244 this is not even true lol. You’re denying the truth. Women wear make up for men, why the hell do they need to wear make up? Especially for beauty?
@@humzanafees9348 stfu you coward, incel piece of shi go get a life instead of replying to comments that i made 1year ago, jee
My favourite quranic feminism verse: 'Your wives are a place of sowing of seed for you, so come to your place of cultivation however you wish and put forth [righteousness] for yourselves. And fear Allah and know that you will meet Him. And give good tidings to the believers.' (2.223). There's feminism everywhere in the quran!
thats a christian idea
Kinda stretching the concept of an independent woman, when numerous hadith and sura keep reminding her of her lower worth than men
coming from 'genesis' very credible...
@@noa7000 lol
Lower worth than men? What kind of retarded understanding of Islam is that? Qawwam means responsible and guardianship. Its like saying parents are guardians of their children and you say all children need to rebel because Islam said, children are worthless. LOL may Allah guid you.
Women are not below men in Islam educate yourself before spitting misinformation on the religion mate
Yeah, I am sure women in Iran in 1979 were all like "Oh boy! I can finally stop driving my car to chemistry class and trade my skirts for a trash bag with a slit for me to see the world through and do nothing but have babies! Hoorah!"
@Za Dom Spremni! No. But when women are told that's the only thing they're good for then yes.
When you wanna defend Iranian women at least do it right, I'm an Iranian womqn and we do not have equal rights but we're allowed to drive and study. Actually the oxymoronic and stupidity of our situation is that we study, work, drive... but we don't have equal rights in marriage and in public, it's absurd. Hijab is compulsory(no veils and burqas though(they're not compulsory, we have to wear headscarves and cover our skin with a manteau or coat), I've never seen a woman with a burqa in Iran and honestly I don't like it for security reasons), but in general I hate the enforcement of religion and I don't understand the meaning of Islamic feminism, do we have Jewish or Christian feminism? What does it even mean? It's so simplistic and meaningless
@@zarajamali2383 before Islam arrived to Iran, the Zoroastrians lived there. With Islam invasion, Zoroastrians fled to India. I have many Zoroastrian friends from Iran! They are flourishing here. And my Zoroastrian friends tell me they are glad they fled Iran, so they may continue practicing their ancient pre-Islamic faith. even though Islam invaded India also, we never gave up our faith 🎉we never surrendered, we kept fighting against the evil invaders and their demonic faith…. The men would commit saka and fight to the last man, the women would commit Jauhar, and burn themselves alive, because Islamic armies were eager to abduct and rape or take Indian women as slaves… so the women would burn themselves…
HOW ARE YOU GUYS SO DELUSIONAL? SHE IS SUCH A HORRIBLE PERSON.
“My hijab is there to make people judge me by my character instead of by the way I look” but people are still judging you by the way you look in a different way now, people are always going to judge the way you look no matter what, you shouldn’t have to change your clothing in order to make people see your true personality. If someone genuinely likes you for you, it doesn’t matter what you’re wearing, they’ll still see the personality beyond it.
Religions Aren't Equal For Men And Women.
In Islam Is There Any Imam In A Mosque Who Is A Girl ?
In Christianity Is There Any Father In A Church Who Is A Girl ?
In Buddhism Is There Any Bhikkhu In A Pagoda Who Is A Girl ?
In Hinduism Is There Any Pandit In A Temple Who Is A Girl ?
Muhammad, Jesus, Buddha, Krishna Can You Guess What Is There Gender ?
And It Goes On And On. If You Judge All The Religious Books No Matter How Much They Say Both Are Equal. Religions And Religious Peoples Never Did And Will Accept Them As Equal.
Also implying that any woman who does not wear her hijab will not be judged by her character. I hear purity culture
stay mad at Islam
We do hijab because ALLAH commanded us to.
Simple.
Its about trying to avoid being sexualized and objectified by men, its a protection for women
Wearing a Hijab and calling oneself progressive is equivalent to a white guy wearing a black-face and calling for anti-racism. I would have supported Hijab if this modesty was imposed on both men and women. The fact that it is women who cover their head (and sometimes the whole face) and men can go about by with just a beard is sexism at its best. Its so ironic that someone who is asking for "equality for men and women" is also symbolically representing those women are the one who needs to be oppressed and show modesty. You can't do a NAZI salute and call for the end of anti-semitism, your intentions might be in the right place but you symbolically show an opposite story.
you are so deluded. your western reality has completely crippled you to think in abstract terms.
@@seadawn8559 Yes. Women wear the hijab because they need it and it’s good for them. Men don’t because they don’t need it and it would interfere with being men.
Either way, I love Muslim women way more than disbelieving women. A Muslim woman who is 7/10 is way more beautiful than a disbelieving woman who is 7/10 because of her modesty and her not showing off her beauty.
The disbelieving woman is cheap and any man can glance towards her and see everything she has while no one sees what the Believing woman has except her family members and especially her husband.
Do you know that Queen Elizabeth wears headscarves frequently?
Respect people.
You have no choice but to wear your hijab.
The Husketeers you're wrong
The Husketeers she has a choice to wear hijab as much as she has a choice to wear shoes
Not in her beloved Saudi Arabia she doesn't. There she gets beaten to death and stoned for not wearing it :)
The housekeepers she isnt fooling me saying she loves wear a hijab she wears it because she is forced to by the men in her religion and has been brainwashed since birth it's a good thing.
Dee Gee that's all Mohammed was is a rapist pervert warlord murder and thief why Muslims follow and worship him I Wil never know they are very sick in the head and brainwashed.
I think you mistook "Islamism" for "Feminism"
Oh she's non traditional feminist! How edgy!
As a traditional Muslim, this woman is absolutely wrong. Islam did not come to “empower” women, that’s a western cliche

They get to watch their husbands with the hooris.
72 BBCs
Well if you are a martyr you get 72 virgins, two are hourie, and the rest of the woman have to stand around and share the man with all the other woman....and there are also "beautiful boys" there as well....but if an islamic woman is good and she go to jannah, instead of sharing her man with just three other women, now she got 72....so yeah, islam is a sick religion of perverted men....
women don't even get a break in heaven, it is still all aobut man and his dick
Alice Burbaugh no you are just twisted by your own lack of mentally you ignorant human being
The top spiritual leader appointed by the Palestinian Authority, Mufti Hassan Al-Laham, appears regularly on Palestinian TV talk shows discussing sharia law and how it applies to everyday life. Recently, the mufti talked about the finer points of beating your wife - permissable under Islamic law. "Not hitting that will bring the police, and break her hand and cause bleeding, or hitting that makes the face ugly," he said. The hitting should "be like a joke," even reinforcing "the love and friendship" between the couple, he said. He is considered a moderate.
This couldn't be further from true.
Why would you openly lie about this?
Cos the left doesn't need facts. It just has a brainwashed following who will believe anything even though they have fucking Google 3 taps away.
Taqiyyah
A feminist who believes a man who was allowed to have more wives than his followers and "married" a woman who'd just been forced to watch her husband tortured was the most perfect example of humanity!
“The wife’s money is her money and the husband’s money is both their money” is a lie spread by Nouman Ali Khan. As long as the husband is providing for her rights, she cannot take a single penny without his permission. She can only take it if he’s not providing for her and she must only take what is sufficient for her needs to be met. The ruling is taken from this Hadith:
Hind bint ‘Utba said, Oh Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)! Abu Sufyan is a miser and he does not give me what is sufficient for me and my children. Can I take of his property without his knowledge?” The prophet (ﷺ) said, “Take what is sufficient for you and your children, and the amount should be just and reasonable.
And if he’s not providing for her, there’s even a difference of opinion amongst scholars about whether she needs to go to a qadhi first or she can just take the money.
Muslim feminists have spread false “rights” of the wife like the husband’s money is the wife’s money, yet reject the husband’s rights which are clearly proven from the Quran and Sunnah such as the husband’s right to be obeyed.
lmaoooo the hadith literally says take what's sufficient. Alhamdulilah for Islam
y'all hating on islam without actually picking up the quran and reading it 😂😂
says there examples, doesn'y give any
Because they aren't
I hate how these progressive Muslims conveniently forget countries that implement sharia law.
Maybe they should have put Malala Yousafzai in the video instead of Linda Sarsour b/c no one can stand Linda Sarsour
Let's get real: these islamic "feminists" wouldn't dream of living in a muslim-majority country.
How this has more likes... this concerns me

*why do european think that wearing short cloths are bravery or confidence?Meanwhile,being an actress, winning Miss universe,Miss world are nothing but selling or representing your body by force,but women have to accept this force just because of fame,money.Also feminism forces women to beat men.That’s why,women has to do 24/7 job,even if she doesn't like it to do.why we don't understand that,physically a man and a woman are not equal. In Islam,there is a beautiful rule that Husband will earn but wife will take care of her children,but feminist hate this rule.Anyway,Hijab is not forced in Islam,Its the girls choice to Follow it to make the creator happy."Get out of your misconceptions about Muslim*
that's just what we need, more tribal medieval religion with insane ideas and prohibitions
I'm seeing all these comments saying go to saudi, Iran, Iraq blah blah blah. The last time I checked that was a country not a religion. I'm sick and tired of people puting religion and culture in the same boat they are not the same one is created by people and the other by God.
We need to stop focusing on and making a big deal about how the things you wear affect how others see you. This is honestly something that shouldn’t matter in life.
Palestinian-American Islamic Feminist, Yeah let that sink in for a while.
Taqiya!!!!!
a christian practice
“Allah responded to them: “I never fail to reward any worker among you for any work that you do, be you male or female, you are equal to one another.” (Qur’an, 3: 195)
“Observe your duty to Allah in respect to the women, and treat them well.” (Prophet Muhammed’s Last Sermon)
“Verily, women are the twin halves of men.” (Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi)
“And for women are rights over men similar to those of men over women.” (Qur’an, 2: 228)
Treat them well by beating them to discipline them. Or by inheriting half of that of men. Or by marrying girls still not having menstration. Or Momo marrying his adopted husband's wife Zainab, or by striking Aisha in the chest because she lost a necklace, or by rei ping Rohaina a Jewish arabian women after Momo and his bandits invaded the whole of Saudi Arabia, by saying women are like livestock or by saying womens brain are half of men, that women are just emotional beings, that women are not capable of leading etc. Muhammad is the most disgusting religious personality in the world.
0:37 That is literally exactly the point of Islamic modesty. You're not supposed to speak your voice because you're not allowed to lead.
i dont think that anyone can argue that life is better for women in any islamic society
"Oppression of women is totally shunned in Islamic faith" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Muhammad is laughing as well
thats actually the church that hates women
Everybody a activist until Ben Shapiro arrives...
That oxymoron!
I love seeing strong Muslim women, its so difficult these days to speak out because muslim and non muslims alike judge immediately. Shes right there are more Muslim women like her, we need unity and the muslim women who overtly criticize just be mindful you are perpetuating these cultural patriarchal views where a lot of men want women silenced.
I saw on a islamaphobic account that shared this video that someone said that women in countries where they don't have these freedoms dislike women like Linda. I don't understand that. Women like Linda are making Muslim womens voices heard, why don't other women support each other. If I came from a country where I was forced to wear particular clothes and not allowed to speak out I would be supporting the women who are like me but who are the position who can speak up.
I don't get why this comment section is so hateful. We need more positivity. Sure this is something new and not openly liked by everyone, but this might be great. I as a muslim feminist myself, believe that we can make a difference.
Astagfirullah feminism is haram
Lol Feminist muslim is like a vegan who eats meat.
It's because she's lying against Islam, against Allaah and against His Messenger sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam. There's no such thing as a Muslim feminist. You're either one or the other.
Hijab is not only to wear a scarf but to cover all your body 😢

Ethan McCormack can you not? people are evil regardless of which religion that person have or don't have. I recommend you to look up what Islam really is about, and ( not from one of those islamophobic sides).please and thank you
You are reading the Qur'an is a way that you believe it is radical. You're obviously are reading it w the wrong intention, which is to just find fault in it but if you read and understand it more. it is such a beautiful scripture and it is actually faultless.
This is the weirdest satire ive seen in awhile
try being feminist and strong and feminine in any Islamic country in the Middle East... then come back and tell me if you still are a feminist
Fatema Mernissi wrote many decades ago "“If women’s rights are a problem for some modern Muslim men, it is neither because of the Quran nor the Prophet, nor the Islamic tradition, but simply because those rights conflict with the interests of a male elite.”
I'm confused. Are there passages in the Quran which can be quoted to make a feminist point? How is their argument squared, especially considering verses such as Surah 4:34?
I think it's already been covered in a few comments, but hopefully I can come across as polite in saying that coving up to not attract men don't work, what it does is to give some men an excuse, even a religion, behind which they can hide their rape and mistreatment as justified. As being the woman's or girls fault... This is mayor issue. The thing is, that when ancient 'new islams' travelled, they came across Turkish women wearing head scarves, and they decided, hey why don't we force all our women to do that.. and so it became the new religious law. But, back in the day, many European women used to wear head scarves, but as they pleased, some days yes, to keep their hair nice, others to keep warm, maybe to keep the sun off, or even some days just to avoid styling their hair.. but it was optional, it was not enforced, and was definately not so they would be undesirable to untrustworthy men. Today, women are more indoors, use umbrellas, in cars, etc, plus we have hairdryers now which I think was a big game changer in hair habits. But, women also at enow less likely to wear them as they are now seen as either old fashioned or Muslim, which is ashame. The issue, is very much to do with any religion placing rules on any genders clothes. I think if all humans just behave kind and respectful, and consider those around them, then we'll all be ok. It's such a pity their are still so many places on earth I will never feel safe visiting because of their lesser views of behaviour towards women.
You cannot be a feminist muslim. This is definitely bidah and haram
*Feminist Muslim* ??
Weird flex, but ok!
There are always degrees discussed. "I don't like a mosque that has women on separate floors." What about ones where women must sit behind the men and are thusly segregated? Are there mosques that don't separate men and women? Tricky little distinction.
Did you already take the drive to Mecca.. oh yea forgot
Nice one
It's just like Nazis talking about human rights

Muhammad was a criminal sex pervert. If you emulate his examples, you will end up in jail.
I like the ninja in your avatar
Aisha and Summaya radhiallaahu anhuna would be the first ones to slap feminists silly. They advocated for Shariah. Feminists advocate for kufr, or at the very least, fusooq. Knowingly or unknowingly. Please don't put the mothers of the believers in the same boat as you lot. They're far above the stinking ideology of feminism. They knew their roles in Islamic society and fulfilled them. Feminists want to flip Islam upside down and inside out.
It’s difficult to be a devout person of a patriarchal religion AND a feminist. I guess people are critical, because many Muslim majority countries have terrible women’s rights violations. But in the West, women would have more choice and freedom, and the oppressive hijab, could be a feminist way of rejecting Western beauty ideals.
Remember, she's in USA. That's why she's free to let a man touch her fingers. Imagine if she were in Iran or Iraq lol
She would be killed for that...
"I am truly perplexed that so many of my friends are against another mosque being built in the United States. I think it should be the goal of every American to be tolerant regardless of their religious beliefs. Thus the mosque should be allowed, in an effort to promote tolerance. That is why I also propose that two nightclubs be opened next door to the mosque thereby promoting tolerance from within the mosque. We could call one of the clubs, which would be gay, "The Turban Cowboy," and the other a topless bar called "You Mecca Me Hot." Next door should be a butcher shop that specializes in pork, and adjacent to that an open-pit barbecue pork restaurant, called " Iraq of Ribs."
Across the street there could be a lingerie store called "Victoria Keeps Nothing Secret," with sexy mannequins in the window modeling the goods. Next door to the lingerie shop there would be room for an adult sex toy shop , "Koranal Knowledge," its name in flashing neon lights, and on the other side a liquor store called "Morehammered."
All of this would encourage Muslims to demonstrate the tolerance they demand of us, so their mosque issue would not be a problem for others."
you could do that u dumb christian
With all do respect to you and your religion, i don't think you understand the concept of feminism (equality between sexes), if you had to take your husband's last name when you married, that's where the talk about equality ends (this goes for all religions, that still see women like property that can be exchanged).
if you cant even take your husband's last name over the fact hes male that makes you extremely sexist against men also no major religion see females like property thats mostly Culture based on political ideologies.
she is a feminists but also supports sharia
nice
why not practice this feminism in afganistan
im living the world in the same view and the same beliefs. 🙌
+Hani Khadizah Thank you for sharing! x
what the hell is wrong w you?! I don't understand why you have to be so disrespectful. YOU ARE DISGUSTING
Crazy delusional people.
adilah issacs//Hey idiot, why the hell calling pedo as a pedo is disrespectful? Blame Muhammed who messed around 9 year old first.
How these people lie to themselves and actually believe it is impressive
Amazing content!
I agree .so deceiving that most people in the comment section don't understand that . it's people like that who promote hate not relegion .
+oumaima- b27
right... the woman who believes that women shouldn't drive and defends Saudi arabia's brand of "women's rights." A women who told a person who told a FGM victim "You need to have your vagina taken away." A woman who covers sexual harasment in her own work place and fat shames/ruins the reputation the victim for speaking out? Please wake up
oumaima-b27 yep because anyone who disagrees with her hateful bigoted views are being the actual hateful ones themselves. that makes sense.
Bishhh where
Wtf???
Lol.
In Islam, a woman’s testimony and inheritance are half that of a man’s.
She may also not leave the home or file for divorce without her husband’s permission.
A Muslim feminist is an oxymoron.
@refinery29 THANK U!!! MUSLIM AND PROUD♥♥♥
Well I hope your views have changed in the last 2 years...
Allison Castle Nah I don't think so.
there is no need to put other ppl down to make yourself feel better. don't you know the word respect?
We want to hear Muslim Feminist born and raised in middle east.
This woman is great.
+erin h How can you say this woman is great ? She has atleast 200 years to go to reach the ankles of our western women ! Its all about an islamic stonetime indoctrination, you know, walking the whole day under a tent and meanwhile wearing victoria secrets underware must be very hard !! LOL !
are you fucking joking? can you read? if you can read the quran. if your man lets you of course.
Yes this woman is great... a great hypocrite.
She's a Sharia law advocate.
Tell me you're a fool without telling me you're a fool
Islam was complete the moment the Quran was, and the Hadith were complete when the Prophet SAW passed. Islam and Muslims don’t need feminism, and ‘Islam’ the religion does not shun the oppression of women, if that occurs it’s despite Islam and not because of it.
And respectfully, the Hijab is worn because it’s a command from Allah, that’s all
For those who has commented or will be commenting on how she is "oppressed" or how islam is unfair between man and woman, pls do some thorough research first honey booboo😘 Islam is beautiful and every other religion there is, and that's just how it is.
So true!! Many other countries that primarily have muslims actually provide more reproductive rights for women than America. Morocco & Tunisia for example.
+Allison Ho really.... You should learn a bit more about countries like Saudis Arabia, quatar, Malaysia irak and so many other Muslim countries who are so wonderfully treating women. I'm sure that you must think women being forced to wear hijab, condemned to death even after being raped because they were adulterous are amazing rights.
+Allison Ho and the charia (Islamic law) is really good toward women also (sarcasm)
+The8Linea8 so we're suppose to believe that you my friend have did sufficient research on Islam? no im not talking abt just surfing through websites. I'm talking abt actually reading through the Quran. If you have, then hey, to each its own opinion. Why spread hate and make yourself be among those with hatred when you in fact want peace? Commenting hate wont change anything hun. Do something abt it instead and then inform us here :D have a great day! (And haha it's syari'a*, Qatar*, Iraq*, Saudi Arabia*)
+Mardhiyah Husnan i say Syria tho
ITS OXYMORON....THIS JOKER IS TRYING TO CONVINCE US 😂😂😂
so lovely to see this in my feed! Linda is so badass!
***** hmm not sure why you are sharing this with me. I think you should open your mind and find some other sources and read more about the passages you think say what you wrote above. Most are taken out of context. Infidel is actually a Christian word used by the crusaders. As a Muslim I find your trolling very sad and actually quite dangerous. Muslim women are afraid to leave their houses because of the hate that people like you put out into the world. From a fellow Muslim, I pray for all humanity to come back to love and peaceful coexistence.
Muslims are people like you...replace Muslim with White people or Black people or Jews in your sentence above and you will see how hateful and disgusting your words are. It saddens me that you even have that in you to say. I will pray for your heart. -from a Muslim
+fedafooda
Please, please don't make the cynical use of Jews. Please
+HebrewLife How was anything I wrote a "cynical use of Jews" If you can't see your fellow Muslim (or those that "look" Muslim) as humans that are victims of racism just like your fellow Jew, then I I don't know what to say. I pray for all to see how we are all connected and the same I'm so many more ways than we are different. God bless.
+Albert Bavré I honestly don't know what to say to that. Your words are so inaccurate and full of racist stereotypes. Have some heart for your fellow humans. Educate yourself on what you obviously don't know. And go talk and meet some Muslims. You will find that you have so much more in common than you think. Peace to you and your family.
Islam and contemporary feminism are not compatible. There are some overlaps but generally speaking it's like fire and ice in ones heart. Either the ice puts out the fire or the fire melts the ice.
Lovely video. Clear, minimal and concise.
Viraj And complete bullshit....but yea it was short.
Short and stupid, to be more precise.
Islam and feminism are mutually exclusive because in Islam a woman is worth half of a man.
I love this! You go girl!
Albert Bavré I'm sorry?
+Vanessa Vitecek NO REPLY ??? we will pay them back and it will be as it was in ancient times !!
Remember VIENNA !
+Albert Bavré +Albert Bavré I don't know if you're German but I am Viennese and I can tell you that I love how we welcome so many refugees. Just because some Islamic people are bad doesn't mean all of them are.
OUR women? Really, do they belong to you? Are they any different than Muslim women? Also, think about all the Christians, Atheists or people of other religions that do horrible and violent things. Would you think that all of them are bad people just because a few of them do bad things? There's no such thing as Islamic behaviour because even if people share the same culture and home countries they are still all different. Some are good, some are bad. Get over your racist opinion and actually try talking to some islamic people.
+Albert Bavré first of all, you misspelled 'wir schaffen das'. Second of all, there is no complete evidence about the race or number of the guys that did the cruel attack on women Cologne. They might be Arab, but 1000-2000?? Anyways... Merkel saved innocent people's lives. She didn't accept millions of refugees like Turkey did, but still a lot. They are innocent families. Do you want a mother with her children dying?
And guess who has been killing Muslims on a daily basis for decades? Party MILLIONS in less than a year?? Bingo! Christians! Hold on here though... Have you killed Muslims? Yes? No? Probably no. Me neither, as a Viennese Muslim from a lovely AND somewhat conservative family, I haven't. Point of this: don't apply the act of some assholes, that are present in all communities, on a whole religion.
+Vanessa islam isn't a race so why is he racist
The answer is yes
From haram to harem, the journey of isl hasn't been long
She is dishonest, plain and simple.
christians are dishonest
People watching refinery 29 make sense, it simply means the best people know how cruel is islam.
I love logical people.
You clearly don’t seem to know about Islam or you know about Islam yet behave in the way you did.
الله أَعْلَم
Read the Qur’an.
This is like a chicken defending kfc
If you have equal rights as a man - In Islam, can a woman marry 4 different males with the consent of her husband, as allowed for the men ?
In the oppressive patricharchal west even muslim can be a feminist
