In Islam Jum'a prayer is not mandatory(fart) prayer for women In addition, I was wondering what this Imam will do when he -sorry- she get period. I think she will apologize, Sorry I can't be Imam today, I am in my period. I invite and ask her to make Tauba to Allah

further more she is a complete wakjob who needs her head checked.like what sane muslim would even think about doing this. she has some serious gender issues.

Amina Wadud (pbuh) (swt) is one of the great women of our age. She has dared to stand up to to the men, and she is more rational than the backwards-looking dictators of the Mideast.

She's very brave. I hope she would stay alive for awhile before getting an assassination.

[edit] In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most merciful

First of all I would like to start by saying that the religion of Islam is a religion that is based upon proofs, evidence. This religion consists of a righteous path that has been laid down for Muslims to follow. As for Amina Wadud and her followers, I ask what proof? What evidence? What knowledge from the Qur’an &, or Authentic Sunnah of the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) do you all come with? Mrs. Wadud and her followers have no evidence for their actions. They only come with innovations in the religion of Islam. The prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has said that every newly invented matter in the religion is an accursed innovation, and every innovation ends in the fire of hell. For the one who knows his/her religion, it is obvious that Mrs. Wadud is astray, and leading others astray. She is also a person who makes mockery of the religion of Islam. I say if you all are so bent on feminism, then why not follow the path of the best females ever to live on this earth. Like Aisha, Khadijah, Maymunah, Sawda, Hafsah, Zaynab, Salama, Safiyya, Um Habiba, and the rest of the women who surrounded the prophet Muhammad. (May Allah be pleased with them all) Aisha was a true scholar. She used to teach men and women, but she would teach the men from behind a veil. Not like Mrs. Wadud, who stands up in front of men. Who bows and prostrates in front of men, having no shyness for herself. So it is incumbent upon her to repents and follow the path of rightiousness and salvation, not the path of misguidance and destruction.

Also, to the one who posted before me; (PBUH) and (swt) are for the prophets and messengers of Allah.

As a liberal and a non-Muslim, I reserve the right to use (pbuh) and (swt) for those whom I think are beneficial to religion in the long run. Thank you for your commentary, though. Both Aisha and Amina Wadud should be regarded as good people, advancers of their religion, and advocates of peace. Rickyrab | Talk 01:35, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] No Place for Polemics

Wikipedia is a descriptive encyclopedia and is no place for theological debates. The Zaid Shaker article is a good opposing viewpoint, but comments such as her being a "wackjob" lacks an academic tone.
