but sacha, that is only one interpretation of muslim law, and there are many others. Mine does not say that. There are many, many muslims who have also studied the traditional sources and are trying to get rid of all these sexist and oppressive regulations created by men so they can hold on to their power. If you are in france try reading some articles by tariq ramadan and there are also many others trying to make Islam grow from those bad times.
Also regarding the woman thing - that happens in Saudi but nowhere else as far as i am aware? Only extreme factions. They say she must be accompanied by a male relative for her "safety" - yet even the youngest wife of the Prophet Muhammad after he died went in to war and she has no relatives with her, only hundreds of other fighters. So they take one idea and use it to oppress the women. It makes me so mad
