First woman Imam leading Friday prayer in India faces ‘death threat’

[Areesh]

Which dress is allowed in Islam... umbrella style burqa, hijab, salwaar kameez with dupatta on shoulders as Muslims seem to follow different codes

Anything that covers your body and doesn't reveal it to others.

 

[AshishDelhi]

Few decades later, same set of people will be blaming raw, mossad, cia for radicalization and keeping their women folk backward

 

[Areesh]

Please quote a few Sahih Hadith that categorically state that women are forbidden from leading prayers. The Holy Quran is silent on this matter

Holy Quran is silent. In hadeeth we have dozens of other instances where Prophet Mohammad(SAW) himself asked men like Hazrat Abubakr(RZ) to lead prayers.

You have one hadeeth. I have dozen others which say opposite.

Quran is also silent on number of rakat I have in Isha prayer. That doens't mean I would have only two prayers in Isha from my own.

It is an innovation. A non issue raised by hindutvas of a hindu state.

In Kerala more than 55% are hindus, but BJP gets only 5-7% vote share... Why??? We know who creates polarisation in our society??? Yes, we know ISIS has roots in Kerala... But we are not fools to think that all Muslims are radicals...

You communists are supporting Islamic radicals and slaughtering rss members to incite violence...so that Kerala remains under Vatican control...just watch...all the foreign funding for missionaries carrying out illicit activities will be blocked...Hindus and Muslim's will see through facade...and bjp will come to power to protect hindu faith...

Vague, how does a pious Muslim choose from 3 options

Anything that doesn't reveal your body. I don't see anything vague in it.

A pious muslim can follow this rule from any option that she is comfortable with.

Situations in north is also not better .
So much loud but not for good issues

So that's your excuse? A state where there is 99% literacy comparing themselves will bimaru states...
Give me one example where pure communist idea worked?? Even China partly embraced capitalism...infact it is the reason for its success..
Only idiots vote for communist parties...
BTW I'm not from the north...

I know of no Sahih Hadith stating that women are forbidden from leading prayers that's why asked you to quote a few.....


One has to prove forbiddance ... Any thing that isn't forbidden is Halal ...

We are not supporting anyone, but are against sankhis & sudapis... They are creating polarisation for vote bank... We are more politically educated & matured to fall in that trap... Communist-rss clash is common in some parts of Kerala... Both parties are equally responsible for that... How only RSS emerges as a victim here???

So you need a sahih hadith clearly forbidding a lady leading a prayer and don't believe in dozens others where men were categorically asked again and again to lead prayers.

Slow claps.

I'm not supporting rss here....I'm simply saying communists and some churches are playing both sides and causing violence in Kerala...and they also allowed Isis to breed...so RSS would react to it...
These people are willing to destroy the very country they live...for few bucks from their Vatican masters...

This has nothing to do with Hinduism... Breaking religious rules are normal in Kerala... When BJP banned cow slaughter, we responded by conducting beef festivals across the state...

Agreed .
But cant completely agree.
She has full right under our constitution to do anything she want .And none has right to threaten her .
But insulting majority feelings is also inhumane .
This is also not good for Kerala

In Islam an arab hlds no authority or noblity than any non arab.

Learn this rule first and then talk.



And a great majority of Indian muslims don't want any lady leading them in prayers.

So hold just 1 prayer with a lady imam in Delhi shahi mosque and then we would talk.

Actually you are none to pass comments on this .
We all are Indians .And she is an Indian citizen and has full protection of our system

Rules are mean to be changed in course of time..

Not ours.

You dont need to blame political parties .
Actually this is a trait of Malayalis .Always challenging the system.
Same goes for women entry in Sabarimala.
We wont allow that

Slow claps.

Ahadith are time and context bound .. In medieval Arabia, women were not supposed to lead men in anything, including prayers.. So men leading prayers normally is nothing surprising... However, there were exceptions ... The point is, was it a cultural norm or was it a religious obligation?...If latter is true, there must have been enough evidence in the Holy texts in this regard , No ?
