Peace Samia,
Do you believe in predestination?Predestiny is nowhere in the Quran, only an Iblis of nature believes in predestiny so he can move the responsibility ot God
716 Iblis said, "Since You have willed that I go astray, I will lurk in ambush for
them in Your Straight Path.A true believer knows he has complete free will and decide their own destiny and thus bares the responsibility of their deeds
723 They said, "Our Lord! We have wronged ourselves. Unless You forgive
us and have Mercy on us, we will certainly be lost. (Man and woman
accepted responsibility acknowledging that they had free will as against Satan
who had ascribed his disobedience to the will of God 716) -
I can see this is a sensitive topic, and I did not foresee it would cause so much controversy. But what I mean is that in the case of rape, the woman is not being voluntary, yet the fact that she is being raped is due to her being dressed immodestly, or being out in public by herself. In Islam, when a woman is out in public, she is to be accompanied by a non-mahram male, such as her father or brother, or otherwise her husband. Woman should also not be out in public too much.
And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof (2431)
So she should know better, and if she is raped, than in a sense she was "asking for it". Just like if you drive recklessly, though you do not intend to get into an accident, if or when you do, obviously you were "asking for it". So as far as I am concerned, if Islam was the law of the land, rape would not be a problem at all, it would be non-existent.
Dear Yusha,
Your ignorance is again shown perfectly. You know how many women get raped in Muslim countries while wearing Burqa's or Hijabs? Thousands.
It is not the clothes that determine rape, it is the unbalanced psyche of a man who believes he owns women and can thus take them whenever they feel like it. It is not seeing women as beings or equals, but as possesion and objects that causes rape.
In Western society women are portrayed as sex-objects and thus stimulate these wrong acts, in for example many Muslim societies, women are seen as possession, something that is not equal and must serve men, this is the cause for many women to get raped, even by their own husband.

So Jankren, you're not for the clear heels huh?
I agree, dressing too sexy is not always good. It's better to be naked than dress that way because it does not exude such sexual spice as the standards of being sexy does. Being sexy is when one accentuates something others will find appealing.

For those women who want to go out naked!
Women who spread immorality and lewdness in the society
415 Protection of honor and chastity for men and women, both, is the cornerstone of a virtuous society (1732, 424). If any woman or a group of women spread sexual immorality or lewdness in the society, it is required that the appropriate court takes four honorable and reliable witnesses. If their testimony corroborates with other evidence (1226), confine them to their houses, since immorality is as contagious as good conduct. This confinement would be for an indefinite period, unless such women seek the Way of Allah, such as repentance and amendment, or the singles among them get honorably married.

A few months ago, a man here raped a 70 year old woman. Why?
Rape is not about sex, it's about power. A man rapes a woman to show her who's boss. I'd say rapes are more common in Islamic countries where women are considered inferior to men.And behavior is much more important than clothes.

i read this entire thread until i got to the end, i was figuring i would post something about rape being not about sex but about power, and i am at least sort of glad that lobster and joe posted it before me. at least someone knows what they are talking about.
the part that doesn't make me glad is that it took all the way to this far in the thread for someone to say it.

Thats why its good to share and learn new things on this forum.
God Bless all of you.

absolutely agree
and while i also agree that rape is more about power than sex, the two are often closely entwined
anyway our dear yusha sure thinks that rape by a husband is impossible...especially if the husband is a "his kind of muslim".

well of course elke, because "his kind of muslim" would also be married to "his kind of muslima" and we all know the ahadith say a good wife never says no to her husband's sexual advances.
Well said!
So the question of rape of wife from a husband is out of question for brother Yusha. I hope he participates in the discussion to enlighten us more with his amazing views.

Excuse me, MY amazing views?! Brother RasulHamsa you have just emailed me and told me you are with Ahle Hadith jamaat from Pakistan. I hate to burst your bubble, but these are OUR amazing views.

Salaam brother,
Being born in a ahle hadith family is not one's own choice. Important thing is we must be open minded to get wisdom wherever we could find.

What if a modestly dressed man is raped? -[

you think this only happens in the west? how do you think they convince dudes to fly into buildings or blow themselves up? first they abuse them, and then they tell them that martyrdom will bring them forgiveness. simple.
after all, as yusha says, the victim is just as much to blame as the perpetrator.

Yes, in the West there are several cases of men getting raped by homosexuals. So should men also go anywhere guarded by anyone? ;D ;D
In the West? Maybe you are not familiar with the story of the Egyptian prisoner who told of his plight on TV.
By homosexuals? So, women are raped by heterosexuals and men are raped by homosexuals? Rape is an act of disturbed nuts, perverts, psychos, has nothing to do with sexual orientation.
