It is certain that women did not have equal rights with men even among the chosen people of the Old Testament.

When the Lord Jesus got into a conversation with a Samaritan woman at Jacob's well, he also violated 3 paragraphs of the contemporary code of etiquette: a) he spoke to a woman, b) a Samaritan woman, c) who, moreover, did not enjoy good news even in his own village (cf. Jn 4.5-30). It is also noteworthy that he may have been accompanied by women (cf. Lk 8:1-3). It is no coincidence that only women stood under his cross, with one exception, and that after his resurrection he appeared to a woman (women) for the first time (cf. Mt 28:8-10; Mk 16:9). The fact that he did not choose women among his apostles is in no way interpreted as some kind of anti-women discrimination, but rather as respect for the profession of family mother and housewife. The Code of the Catholic Church considers marriage to be a contract between two parties with equal rights (cf. Ecclesiastical Code 1055. §§ 1.)

The situation is quite different in Islam. We have already referred to the humiliation of women in Chapter IV. at the hearing of the commandment. Let's recall the points of this:

– The marriage contract is signed by the future husband and the future wife's father or guardian. It is also not necessary for the woman to know her future husband. Although there is a hadith according to which a woman cannot be married without asking her. If, on the other hand, the virgin "listens shamefully", it is considered consent (cf. Bukhari 7,62.67-68).

- The removal of a woman's genitals (clitoris = clitoris) is also much more humiliating than the usual male circumcision. This practice is common even in more liberal states (such as Egypt).

- According to AK 4.3 and Sharia m 6.30, a free Muslim man can have several wives. However, a wife cannot have more than one husband.

- A Muslim man is not forbidden to marry a Kafir woman. However, a Muslim woman cannot marry a Kafir man. (Cf. K 2,221.)

- The husband can have sex slaves, the wife cannot (cf. K 4,24).

- Generally, a woman can only show herself in front of strange men in a veil covering her face. She can only leave her home with her husband's permission, usually accompanied by her husband or a man who is not considered a sexual partner.

According to Sharia m 10.12, "obedience to one's husband is a religious duty", the violation of which is punishable by beating. By the way, wife-beating is also permitted in the Koran (cf. 4.34). Unnatural (anal) sex is prohibited, otherwise the husband decides on the time and manner of intercourse (cf. Muslim 008,3365). According to Isaac 969, "men have some control over women because they are slaves to men and have no control over themselves."

Raised without a mother from the age of 5 and suffering enough from jealousies within his 12-member harem, Muhammad had a rather devastating opinion of women. He stated several times that "most people in Hell are women" (cf. Bukhari 1,2,28; 1,6,301). He also held that women were intellectually and morally inferior to men (cf. B 1,6,301). Muslim 031.5966 preserved such a saying from the Prophet: "There are many perfect men, but among women only Mary, the daughter of Imran, Asia, the wife of Pharaoh, and Aisha are perfect." (Elsewhere, he also lists his first wife, Hadija, here.)

Let us mention some more discriminatory distinctions between Muslim men and women:

- Women are excluded from many professions, for example a judge can only be a free man (Saría o 22,1).

- A woman can inherit half as much as a man: "The general share must be distributed so that the man receives the share of two women" (o 10,3).

– If someone causes injury to a woman or causes the death of a woman, his punishment is half as if he did the same to a man (o 4,9).

"A woman's testimony in court is worth half as much as a man's." According to AK 2,282, if witnesses are needed in a debt case, “call two witnesses from among your men. If there are not two men, then one man and two women, those with whom you are satisfied".

In Islam, a woman is primarily a means of satisfying men, and a factor that reproduces the race (more precisely: "Muslim-reproducer"). The wife's genitals are referred to in the Qur'an as "ploughland" to be used by the husband as he pleases. On the other hand, if she fulfills her maternal mission well, she deserves respect even according to Muhammad (Bukhari 8,73,2; cf. K 46,16). The woman who obeys her husband and fulfills her duty will then receive the same reward on the Day of Judgment as the man: "Allah has promised the righteous, men and women alike Gardens, under which rivers flow, and in which they will dwell forever in good abodes in the Gardens of Eden" (Q 9 ,72).

In conclusion, we should also refer to Houari Boumédiène , which he gave at the United Nations in 1974: "One day, millions of people will leave the southern hemisphere to flood the northern one. And they don't necessarily go to make friends, but to conquer. They will conquer it by populating it with their own sons. Our women's wombs bring us victory." /5./ From then on, a population explosion occurred in Muslim countries. And the European leaders, who were not allowed to take H. Boumédiène's speech seriously, and are not taking it seriously now, can't help but wonder: where do all these "refugees" and "economic immigrants" come from? A French journalist aptly wrote that "childbearing is the jihad of Muslim women..." For them, 5 children is the minimum, for the Germans, one will almost certainly be too many!
