    Peace Be Upon You All
    I know God does as He pleases. But why do you think that no women ever get that title? I guess the closest would be Mary but she was just the messenger of a messenger so to speak ... She has a pretty cool title though ... the best of all women

    but still ... anyone have a guess as to why?

    Hello sister

    Just in case you dont know (I believe you know though), Allah said in the Quran that the messengers must be men (Rijaal), you are an egyptian and I'm sure you know well that Rijaal means men and Nisaa means women, those who promote otherwise are clear cut ignorant and surely are misleading others to only satisfy their low desires and ego

    If you are in doubt that Nisaa means women (feminine) and Rijaal means men (masculine), i can show you hundreds of evidences in the Quran to prove it to you and expose the deceptions but I hope we donlt waste time on that Tom and Jerry allegation

    Finally, dont forget that Allah ordered the wives of the prophet not to marry after him and abandon life so they dedicate it to serving Allah and His religion, this of course is a great honor to the women race because those wives learnt the religion first hand from their husband (the prophet) and for years and years after the prophet died they taught Islam to thousands of men and women, they were like the first and true Khalifas of Islam

    Also many above provdided very logical reasons, agentxxx and samia

    salam

      there's quote from V for Vendetta, "Artists use lies to tell the truth."
      I think the author of this quran may have been an artist.
      Although I appreciate the compliment, I don't think god would consult me about inspiring women with the truth. Several female members on this forum I believe would qualify as messengers by my definition. Samia being one of them.
      She's opened my eyes to the truth more than once, how can she not be a messenger?

      Well let me say this

      If Samia agrees with a kafir like you who call himself Allah, accuse Allah of lying, says you know better than Allah, and the Quran is a book of non sense, then she is a clear cut hypocrite, I hope she is not, but I can't see here defending her religion against the non sense a kafir like you spew every day

      You are a shame to this place and even shame to the kafirs, I have to add you to the shamless list of free islam, however I dont even want to waste the 3 minutes it will take me to do it with a clear cut enemy of Islam like you

      Edit Finally done it The Shameless List Update

            Salam.

            Is it possible that there were female messengers but the disbelievers killed them in such horrible way that it was soooo awful and nasty that it just ..... is not for public?

            The Exalted GOD AllPowerful knows best.

            I don't know, if there were any female messengers but The GOD did say that HE has sent many messengers, some HE spoke to Muhammad, some HE didn't. I forgot the verse and the chapter where it says .....

            Peace.

              I still do not find any plausible logical reason why no female messengers are mentioned in the quran....While we are on the topic how come all the messengers seem to be of middle eastern extraction? Where is prophet bob dole of the US,or rasul kodjo from kenya? And why no more new messengers in the last 1400 years?

                Maybe the messengar was told only about other messengers from his area. God says there were many others, but He did not tell him about. Those others include bob dole and kodjo

                    Peace Ahmad,

                    Yeah, that's what I thought - Men have ego. If the prophet is a female, imagine the prophet's husband. Men naturally can't stand having a women telling them what to do.

                      There are many Messengers that we do not know because of the erosion of time, as well as a Revelation given to them. How dare we say that God can not produce a female Messenger as much as a male One! God can do and ordain whatsoever Ey wants, and I have firm belief and surety that God did have some female Messengers in the past.

                      I believe that Muhammad is not the last Rasul, and that there will be more Rasuls in the future. Who knows, the next one could be a woman, for all its worth. If one could speculate that Deganawida and Quetzacoatl could have very well been Messengers of God, why not women?

                        Besides, what will the husband do while the prophet is out preaching? Cook, and do the washing? I'm not saying he can't, but it's just weird.

                        cough I don't mind women telling me what to do, as long as I also have say in the matter. God loves justice, and it is Eir gift unto us! ^___^

                        I also already like to cook and do the washing, lol...

                          peace all ?

                          . i don't know the exact verse now, but doesn't God say in the qur'an that there have been sent messengers/ prophets (oh, which one now i don't remember..) to all peoples and lands?

                          . could someone make clear for me the difference between a messenger and a prophet? the arabic equivalent distinction being rasul and nabi, i believe ? but i guess i mixed the two up ? who's who?

                          . this leads to the question of Muhammad being the last of the prophets. is he said to be the seal of the prophets or the seal of the messengers?

                          and God knows all
                          and God knows best.

                            Don`t know whether or not there have been female messengers, but would just like to mention that the Old Testament (Bible) mentions prophetesses like Miriam (the sister of Moses and Aaron, not the mother of Jesus) and Ruth (I think) and others...

                              You are a shame to this place and even shame to the kafirs, I have to add you to the shamless list of free islam, however I dont even want to waste the 3 minutes it will take me to do it with a clear cut enemy of Islam like you

                              I LOL'd at that comment. Anyway, I think action should be taken against this clear personal attack.

                                i think if the person who was attacked complains then maybe action should be taken. however, i doubt lobster is all broke up about it, so i think it should stay so that we can all have a laugh at the ridiculousness of it all

                                back to the topic

                                just because we don't read about female messengers or prophets in certain books does not mean they never existed. that would be like saying that because we didn't read about women in history books that women didn't exist at that time. it's simply because they were not mentioned in this specific publication for whatever reason. maybe that reason is so that eventually in the future people would be able to discuss on free minds forum whether or not there existed female messengers and prophets

                                      In Egypt, these rude words only come from the lowest of the low. I am hugely disappointed.

                                        If women are not allowed to be messengers then why no explanation in the quran for this?
                                        And if women were messengers then why no mention of even ONE woman messenger in the quran?
                                        Surely women messengers would help to erase the misogyny and oppression women face in tribal society and religion? Surely women messengers would help women a great deal in their quest for human rights?

                                          Its a common behaviour of so called religious people. They think if they take care of God they have to rude with the people. And you can easily see such people burning in their own hell.
