How would you respond to these interpretations of the treatment of women
-
Peace
'Quran (434) - "Men are in charge of women, because Allah hath made the one of them to excel the other, and because they spend of their property (for the support of women). So good women are the obedient, guarding in secret that which Allah hath guarded. As for those from whom ye fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them to beds apart, and scourge them. Then if they obey you, seek not a way against them."
Quran (222 - "and the men are a degree above them" "Them" refers to women. This is often taken to mean authority.Quran (3359) - "Tell thy wives and thy daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks close round them..." Men determine how women dress.
Quran (3333) - "And abide quietly in your homes..." Women are confined to their homes except when they have permission to go out.
Quran (2223) - "Your wives are as a tilth unto you; so approach your tilth when or how ye will." Wives are to be sexually available to their husbands in all ways at all times. They serve their husbands at his command. This verse is believed to refer to anal sex (see Bukhari 6051), and was "revealed" when women complained to Muhammad about the practice. The phrase "when and how you will" means that they lost their case.
Quran (665) - "Maybe, his Lord, if he divorce you, will give him in your place wives better than you, submissive, faithful, obedient, penitent, adorers, fasters, widows and virgins" A disobedient wife can be replaced.'

peace Sarah,
Out of curiosity, by citing the above analysis are you also implying it is a sound analysis?
In any case a simple forum search will reveal many/all of these issues discussed before.
Here is a good place to start www.misconceptions-about-islam.com
And lastly this is a Quran based islam forum, thus Hadith-based translation is irrelevant (for the most part).

If you replace instead of women with men those verses... Do you get satisfied? Will that probably work in society...
