“So to get back to the point I was making about women in Islam, their job is much more important that some try to make it. The picture of a woman just sitting around having babies and serving her husband is a concept that was not introduced into our societies Islamically. The Muslim woman as we mentioned, is much more than this. It is other than us that push this idea, and then they have the nerve to make is seem as though it is part of our Islamic teachings. What is even worse, is that you have some Muslims that have been tricked into believing this, and pushing it off onto our women. It is time to wake these people up and begin to teach them the reality of the importance of the Muslim woman, not only to our societies, but to the world as a whole”
