If you ask Muslim women why they cover up, ninety-nine percent of them will say it's to avoid arousing men. Fuck that, where's your self-accountability? ↗

The significance of the vast Islamic scientific tradition for Muslims and especially for young Muslims today is not only that it gives them a sense of pride in their own civilization because of the prestige that science fhas in the present day world. It is furthermore a testament to the way Islam was able to cultivate various sciences extensively without becoming alienated from the Islamic world view and without creating a science whose application would destroy the world of nature and the harmony that must exist between man and the natural environment. ↗

لا يكاد العرب ــ وربما المسلمون ــ يتوقفون، علي مدي القرون، عن اختراع حوامل يعلقون عليها انقسام عالمهم وتشظيه؛ وبما يعنيه ذلك من أن الأصل في العالم هو الانقسام والتباعد. وهذا النوع من الانقسام هو أحد نتاجات رؤية للعالم استقرت وغلبت داخل التراث الإسلامي؛ وذلك مع ملاحظة أن تلك الرؤية للعالم تعد من رواسب ومخلفات عالم القبيلة الذي جاء الإسلام، في سعيه إلي بناء عالم جديد، لكي ينفيه ويرفعه، لكنه استمر حياً وفاعلاً في وعي العربي حتي الآن، علي الرغم من غياب القاعدة المادية الحاملة له في الواقع. إن ذلك يعني أن (القبلية) تستمر فاعلة في الوعي الراهن؛ ولو كرؤية محفزة للانقسام والتفكك، وذلك علي الرغم من غياب الحامل الواقعي لتلك الرؤية ( الذي هو القبيلة) ↗

In the Islamic world itself also there is a great crisis in he modern established universities precisely because the systems from the West have been transplanted into that world without a close integration between the humanities, which should be drawn totally from Islamic sources, the religious disciplines and the sciences which have been imported from the West. ↗

Like the Nazis, the cadres of jihad have a death wish that sets the seal on their nihilism. The goal of a world run by an oligarchy in possession of Teutonic genes, who may kill or enslave other 'races' according to need, is not more unrealizable than the idea that a single state, let alone the globe itself, could be governed according to the dictates of an allegedly holy book. This mad scheme begins by denying itself the talents (and the rights) of half the population, views with superstitious horror the charging of interest, and invokes the right of Muslims to subject nonbelievers to special taxes and confiscations. Not even Afghanistan or Somalia, scenes of the furthest advances yet made by pro-caliphate forces, could be governed for long in this way without setting new standards for beggary and decline. ↗

The condition of women in Islamic societies as a whole is also far from desirable. However, we should acknowledge that there are differences. In certain countries, the conditions are much better and in others much worse. ↗
