1) Young Muslims - The Message

8. Western society falsely claims to have uplifted womenWestern talk of women’s liberation is nothing but a disguised formof exploitation of her body, degradation of her soul and deprivationof her honor. Western society claims to have ‘uplifted’ women. Onthe contrary it has actually degraded them to the status ofconcubines, mistresses and society butterflies who are mere tools inthe hands of pleasure seekers and sex marketers, hidden behind thecolorful screen of ‘art’ and ‘culture’.9. USA has one of the highest rates of rapeUnited States of America is supposed to be one of the mostadvanced countries of the world. It also has one of the highest ratesof rape in any country in the world. According to an FBI report, inthe year 1990, everyday on an average 1756 rapes were committedin USA. Another report which came out later said that on anaverage 1900 rapes are committed daily in USA.Consider a scenario where the Islamic Hijab is followed in America.Whenever a man looks at a woman and any brazen or shamefulthoughts come to his mind, he lowers his gaze. Every woman wearsthe Islamic Hijab that is the complete body is covered except theface and the hands upto the wrists. After this, if any man commitsrape, he is given capital punishment. I ask you, in such a scenario,will the rate of rape in America increase, decrease or remainunchanged?10. Implementation of Islamic Shari’ah will reduce the rateof rapesNaturally, as soon as Islamic Shari’ah is implemented, positiveresults will be inevitable. If Islamic Shari’ah is implemented in anypart of the world, whether it is America or Europe, society willbreathe easier. Hijab does not degrade a woman but uplifts awoman and protects her modesty and chastity.Young Muslims, What they should know about Islam Page - 146
