Women Only Jihad
Channel 4 Monday 30 October 2006, 8pm

There are around 1,600 mosques in Britain. Well over half do not allow women access to worship and hardly any allow women a say on how the mosques are managed and run. Journalist Tazeen Ahmad follows a group of young Muslim women who are waging a determined campaign to force these mosques to open up. She also investigates the recent Muslim scarf/veil controversies and speaks to some of the young women who choose to wear them.
GUYS IF U LIVE IN THE UK WATCH IT!
I seen the advert it looks like battle of the sexes. Dont think is going to potray Muslim men in a good light.

I think watchin programs like these just make you more angry.. so i try to avoid them.


Why not use that time to tell someone about the good things about islaam, instead of watching something which put's people off islaam?

Asalamu Alaykum

thank you, Fi_sabilillahi - my intention was to watch that program ("women only Jihad") but since I have checked out the websites you suggested , I'm going to avoid watching it. Thank you again (for the websites- they were really useful)

Salaam

No, i meant that they only show programs like this to cause more hatred against the muslims and to make the muslims get sad/angry. So i prefer not to watch them.


I think the sister meant the links in my sig, Allaahu a'lam.



Sorry if i offended you.

Assalamu alaikum

Cause more hatred, brother?

This is an important issue, and if sisters are just going to be fobbed off when they alone approach the heads of the mosques then something else has to be done. If men are made out to look back then it is down to their own doing. Woman's purpose in life isn't to be a baby making machine and being tied to the kitchen sink.
 
Re: Dispatches:Woman only Jihad.Channel 4

Just to comment on the debate the programme will probably be dealing with, I believe that Muslim women should be allowed to pray in the mosque if they so choose. The question of space etc is not really valid in my view - my university Islamic society and my local masjid are both pretty small (the former is two rooms and the latter a small, two-storey house). Thing is, they both found a way to incorporate sisters facilities - in the Islamic society, there is simply a male room and a female room, and in the mosque the men pray upstairs and in the attic, while the women pray downstairs and in a back hall. Simple. Where there's a will there's a way.

[QUOTE=youngsister- What websites? I am completly lost:

Asalamu Alaykum

sorry, What I meant was the links brother Fi_ sabilillahi posted on his thread.

Salaam.

I'm also intrigued about these programmes I mean it's an issue which needs to be discussed but just like every other programme done by kufar on islam they put their spin on it, remember that "What muslims Want" Programme they kept making out the people who were pro-jihad were lunatics and just had a bais opionion from the get go so I wouldn't be suprised if they did something similar, this issue should be delt with inhouse it's a shame it's come to this kufar airing our dirty laundary in public while we don't even attempt to ressolve it.

Well i think there is a hadith regarding women prayers in masjid....I think it's something like that Home is the best place for women to offer her prayers...even though women are allowed to offer prayer in masjid

Re: Dispatches:Woman only Jihad.Channel 4

I actually watched the programme tonight and im guessing from the points that perhaps not alot of people did. personally i think that muslim women should be allowed to pray in any mosquse but the approach and manner that those sisters took in that documentary wasnt the necessary best way:heated:

Re: Dispatches:Woman only Jihad.Channel 4

it was a joke! an utter embarrassment to the ummah
 
Re: Dispatches:Woman only Jihad.Channel 4

salaam

i didnt watch the prograame erm due to other programme scheduling :p

but i tink from the advert it had been over exagerated :D, im being honest i live in london yeh, and ive never come across a mosque where no woman are allowed .....

:D:D:D
 
Re: Dispatches:Woman only Jihad.Channel 4

its all political bro!! go to the sisters attacked thread its all there.
 
Re: Dispatches:Woman only Jihad.Channel 4

^^^^ what thread do you mean sis??

and its true i also live in london and if ive walked past a mosque and needed to pray ive never been turned away and some of the points made were exagerrated a bit too much to
 
Re: Dispatches:Woman only Jihad.Channel 4

like that mosque they showed masjid e umar, thats in walthamstow :p heavy mosque :D:D:D and they allow women and men in, so i dunno what the program was on, did they highlight specific mosques? and people that dont let women in mosques should be shot :p :D

lol ironically in my mosque, they let the sisters in 1st, and if the sisters turn up in their numbers, then they block upstairs like let the sisters have the upstairs :p so if there aint any space for the brothers downstairs :p dey dont let us in :p so i know a mosque where they dont let men :embarrass
