        Peace Mquran, all

        Peace Marie,

        My view is, until death takes them should be taken literally because its 'al-maut' and I've seen 'al-maut' to be literal. However, if those women seek sabeelillah, then the confinement should end.

        I think we are speaking about the same thing, if they (two women) refuses to seek the Way of Allah, such as repentance and amendment, their confinement should be extended till they die..

        The crime spoken of in 416 is the same as that in 415. For me, both man and women are under the same punishment.

        The adulteress and the adulterer are under the same law (242)

        I think the translation of "faathoohuma" as "then you shall annoy them"(FM) or "give them both a slight punishment" (Muhammad Ali) is not correct and ambigous.

        Then how to punish the two men who commit the same crime is explained in the light of 415.

        PLease let me know your understanding of 416.

        Thanks

            Sorry for the confusion.

            If you find the title of this thread uncorrect, you can suggest another title )

            For the futur, feel free to create another thread which does not cover the same subject.

            The separation of one thread in several threads is not a recreation for me

            Peace

                    Thank you very much for the information. I agree allaatee is the plural form of allatee.

                    You can post in arabic language because Arabic is my mother tongue.

                    Have a good night.

                    Here in france, it is 1355 (PM).

                      Peace be upon you MQ and all,

                      Thanks for the critisism on my brainstorming.

                      Yes, I agree it is a social context, but in order for men to recieve the same warning, it must be taken as symbolic. I will ask you to think about why all messengers are Masculine. Certainly females deliver truth to others, so we know that the female can be a messenger too. But it is symbolic of the "yin and yng" of life.

                      In the same manner, the female is used in this context to speak about incorrect behavior. It addresses the female side of all humans, the receptive side. It is the masculine side of ALL humans that is symbolized as the messenger side, and the female is the recieving side.

                      please give me clarification on the gender of verse 4/16 so I can check my position

                      So it is the Human that must be confined to the systems(buyoot) until they are corrected.
