I am a Muslim woman and this is the most demeaning interpretation and explanation.
You do realise that so many men don't pray, many men don't fast. You describe women as the more emotional sex which is so stereotypical. When it is men that start global wars, destroy the environment, rape women as a weapon, commit domestic abuse against women, abuse children- no they are not seen as emotional at all.
Women have a long standing history of being jurists and lawyers. We also hold prominent positions in political cabinets and presidential/priministerial positions.
I honour my message to the millions of women who have fought and died in the name of emancipation from male oppression such as this video.
Are you influenced by feminism things such as men and women are equal , women can lead men in prayer .. so on?
@@waqaswani2994 men and women are equal. Do you agree ethnic minorities should be enslaved? No. So why are you enslaving women as your subordinates? We don't lead prayers because men are perverts. There is no way in a million years I would bend down with you behind me.
@@crestfire8008 no we don't believe in gender equality we believe in gender justice. Men and women have complementary roles .The man has a degree over women in terms of financial responsibility he is the provider of the house and the leader of the house as in the final decision will be his. The women guards the house and is responsible for cooking ٫ cleaning۔ All of her expenses are borne by the husband۔
When the women becomes a mother her status increases she has 3 times more right over her children than the father.
In marriage the man is supposed to give mahr mostly money to the women. The women gets her inheritance from her father , mahr from her husband and if she wants to earn money she can but the household comes first. If her going out and working is imbalacing her household responsibilities then she has to leave her job.
In Islam men can marry upto four wives and can also marry pious Christan and Jewish women.
Where as a women marries a muslim man only and only one at a time.
The wisdom behind is that usually when a women goes into the other family she has to adopt the values of the others .
Regarding polygamy , it is a genius way of protecting women ٫ men die in wars ٫ men dies in building high rise buildings etc i.e the mortality rate of men is greater and women and also the birth rate of women is higher so it makes sense for 1 capable man(not all ) to provide for many women including divorcees with children who no one wants to marry.
Gender equality is a myth as men and women are different in physical strength, physiological make up, psychology, emotionally.
And thus justice needed to be done to give rights to men that he deserves and rights to women that she deserves.
Masha Allah, may Allah continue to bless you with good in both worlds. Ameen

Better say Allah subhana wa ta'ala for example as a muslim but you are right akhi.
Let's examine the logic. What is Worship? To do things or refrain from things according to Order of Allah, is this correct? Why do Muslim women NOT pray or fast during menstruation? do they all suddenly lose interest in worship for those days? NO. They do not pray or fast BECAUSE they follow the commands of Islam. This by very definition is WORSHIP. You CANNOT tell them not to fast and then turn around and blame them for not fasting.
Clearly you didn't understand any of it. The deficiency doesn't mean that they are sinning for leaving it off, rather they're actually rewarded for the deeds that they would normally do if they weren't menstruating. That, however, doesn't change the fact that it is a deficiency as not praying or fasting for several days has many other implications and effects on their religious commitment. Besides, if the messenger of your Lord said its a deficiency who are you to say otherwise?
No, you clearly did not understand the context. The hadith comes from the question posed by women to the prophet as to WHY most inhabitants of hell were women. His response was that it was because they were deficient so it actually does blame them for it. Maybe read more.
@@gabrielh2505 I'm well acquainted with the hadith. Have you ever heard of correlation does not equal causation? If someone does not do crucial worship like prayer and fasting for many days straight, this can have a clear effect on the other aspects of their faith which can lead to them being punished, albeit not necessarily and not because of the inability to pray itself but its other affects. So I suggest you learn a bit more about Islam before coming to spread specious doubts and arguments. May Allah guide us all and protect us from the doubts of shaytaan.
+Gabriel H
Hey Gabriel
I found the answer to this question some time ago.
The whole hadith questioned me, and in some cases made no sense, and I had the same doubt as you before.
Here it is. (I lost my trusted hadith website for some reason, but anywho) abuaminaelias.com/does-islam-teach-that-women-are-inferior-or-deficient-in-religion-reason-and-testimony/
The Prophet of Islam does not actually blame women for "Not praying" or "not fasting".
If you read the whole hadith carefully, you will note "Not grateful".
In fact, many books stack this hadith under the "Wives" section for this reason.
What the true meaning in "deficiency" is her 'Obligation to'.
A woman, unlike a man, is not obligated to spend on her husband and others' livelihood. further, unlike men, women do not need to fast nor pray every day.
Even though this burden is reduced *(deficient)*, women sin more often (backbite, ungratefulness, and curse).
This hadith goes hand in hand with Inheritance. A woman's financial obligations are far fewer to none to a man's, thus, she should not have the right to inherit that of what is equal to a man, for whom that money is more useful for.
This might confuse a bit, and may make you not want to trust me or doubt me.
Understandable mate. Arabic is a very difficult language to translate from. French for example uses "Madam" and "Mademoiselle" for different age groups, yet direct translation would be "Ma'am" which is general use for all genders.
Arabic being like Hebrew, and Aramaic makes it even worse.

I am a Muslim but my question is if a woman is on her periods its not here fault so then why is she lower than man in deeds . Men do not have periods women do its not their fault they did not ask for it . I don't what to accept that Haddith . This Haddith comes from a weak source . You gave a wrong and unacceptable explanation.
It's authentic hadith. Allah made women less than men so stop believing you are equal to a man. It's like Allah decided to give disadvantages to women then blame them for those disadvantages
@@crestfire8008 First of all I did not ask for your advice , Allah made women and men equal he loves them both equally. Who are you to tell me that I must stop believing that women and men are equal. Shut-up I did not ask for your advice . Allah will never be happy if women are treated badly . Allah hates people how think that they are superior so stop thinking that women are lower than men . Satan has kicked out of heaven for thinking that he is superior and hazrat Adam is lower so if you think that women are lower u are son of the devil .
@@justarandomdude8422 you are right. Satan was kicked out for thinking he was better than Adam. Same way, women will be thrown in hellfire for thinking they are equal to men. Don't believe me? Here's proof.
The punishment for killing women is half of that of killing men. So the murderer gets half the punishment for killing women instead of men. Why did Allah allow this? Because Allah himself said women are half the worth of men
More proof, freeing one male slave is equivalent to the rewards of freeing two female slaves. Oh also, did you know sex slavery is allowed in Islam?

Why is the Quran not translated in many languages like the Bible? Can people pray to Allah in any other language other than Arabic? Does the Quran and history go hand in hand?
First of all I'm not a scholar of any sorts but I'll try to answer to the best of my knowledge.
The Qur'an has indeed been translated into many languages, however since the beginning of Islam there has been a heavy emphasis on preservation, so to preserve the original scripture. That's why the original Qur'an is still in Arabic and as with almost any piece of literature, the translation simply doesn't do justice to the original. I don't fully understand ur last question but I can tell you that the Qur'an we have today is the original scripture, unchanged, from what we believe was sent down to our prophet pbuh. And there is evidence to back this up.
Also, in Islam there are two kinds of prayer: Dua and Salaat. From what I know dua can be done in any language but it's best to perform Salaat in Arabic. However if a new convert doesn't speak Arabic its fine for them to do it in whatever language suits them best but they should still strive to do it in Arabic.
@@n.1028 No, Islam simply oppresses women in broad daylight. The women obviously don't see it because they are used to that lifestyle.
The reasoning part is consistent with scientific findings, but can someone explain to me why Allah swt would consider a woman's deen deficient because they have to follow the religious laws that he imposed on them. that is to not pray while menstruating? perhaps I misunderstood the reasoning or context.
Women and men are generally equal in IQ, so no it doesn't correspond with psychological research
@@MrSofuskroghlarsen im pretty sure men are slightly higher but to be fair, this hadith seems imply that women have only half a mans iq considering 2 women have to testify in place of 1 man. So i guess that it gets that wrong as well.
@@MrSofuskroghlarsen It has nothing to do with iQ, women prioritize emotions over rationality and logic and men don't. That is why.
A woman is not deficient in religion in the sense that she is less of a believer. NO.
It means she does less in terms of religious practice. The Prophet is not taunting women or belittling them, far be it that he would have done such a thing.
He is simply saying that God has decreed less religious practices on women, as a blessing and mercy from Allah, because during menstruation women need to rest and lay back.
As opposed to western societies, where women during their periods and mood fluctuations are forced into work/labour etc.
Allah created us, and He is most knowing of our physiological changes and needs.
3:53 Studies show women have better memories than men. So that justification is false!;)
studies show they are more emotionally smarter. so they way kinder than man, they are more compassion. if u have a mother u know what im saying. compare dad and mom , u see mom are way compassionate so if u did a bad thing she still gonna be at ur side
@@alhassanlol7023 That's a weak justification. Fathers and other family members can easily do that too and besides this is not the reason noted in hadith. Many times this goes beyond family too.
@@alhassanlol7023 That does not impact witness testimonies. Having emotional intelligence does not mean one is deficient in being a witness. Do provide studies where these two are correlated.
@@alhassanlol7023 With that logic, women wouldn't make good leaders as they are too emotional to make judgement calls but if you look at the most successful countries, they have women leading. Hadiths are very outdated.
Umm Abdillah al-Wadiyyah, daughter of the late Shaykh Muqbil (may Allah have mercy on both) says (paraphrased) that An-Naqs better means "incompleteness" not deficiency. It's meaning is she is weak and incapable of throwing support behind another and cannot win support for herself; she cannot express herself neither does she have the willpower to do so. In fact, the habit of adorning herself comes from completing this incompleteness. This is how Allah has created women, weaker in comparison to men but equal to them in a general sense. And Allah knows best, I thought I'd share this since reading her book "My Sincere Advice to Women" benefitted me.
"Allah knows best"? The only thing Allah knows is that he is the father of lies and has been since the beginning.

I didn't think of it this way.
This is wrong. You’re taking the Hadith out of context bro. You do realize that Aisha, prophet Muhammad (PBUH) wife, has given us over 2000 Hadiths alone. Aisha didn’t need 2 women to verify these hadiths. You gotta remember to take in EVERYTHING when coming to a conclusion, and not cherry pick which is taking things out of context.
Majority of the time men and women are equal in Islam. Only the minority of times when they are not.
The meaning of witness here is with regards to Islamic court testimony, not narration.
And these occasions mentioned in the hadeeth are from those occasions where they are not equal. How else would we be clear on these issues except by Revelation? The Scholarship of many Muslim women is known and is a separate issue
so why witness of women is half of men explain then explain other things later
I am a believing muslimah and reading this hadith while being on my menses in ramadan and not able to worship Allah via sawm and salah was heartbreaking already and this haditg confused me but some of my doubts were cleared by this video

Alhamdullillah!! Amantu billahi.
This brother is misinterpreting the hadith, naqis here means concession not deficiency. Please refer to other scholars like al nadwi and imam abu hanifa too. Peace
This explanation is seriously lacking. Firstly in Hanafi madhab women can be imam to other women. Witnessing of women is referring to certain matters, its not universal. This narrative of a woman being intellectually deficient needs to stop. Its clear he doesn't understand the nuances of the Arabic language. This does not mean a woman is not as smart as a man. Both men and women are equal in the ability to process information. It refers to rationality, not intellect. Women who are less rational are still able to manipulate men who are supposed to be dominant....this is a compliment for women. People that don't understand should not be making videos to misguide and confuse people.
Lol you wilding this is the dumbest explanation thing I’ve heard
Lololol how can you defend something like this... If this was in the bible, Muslims would be the first to call out on it!!!!!

Buddhism, Hinduism also spread a lot in Canada..so are they also true? Muhammad also conquered and converted people to Islam by the sword. Early Islamic converts aside from those in Muhammad’s tribe were because they were threatened.
Am I right ?
Give me evidence please. Also you said Hinduism and Buddhism is also prevalent in Canada, but there is absolutely no comparison between those religions and Islam. Islam is the fastest growing religion today, and it shall stay like that. As a matter of fact Hindus in India are persecuting Muslims as we speak. No religious group is being marginalized and mediatized in a negative way as much as Islam is. As far as the "Spread by the Sword" narrative is concerned, it's like I said. Show me one hadith or verse (Not taken out of context) where Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him forced someone to convert.
You didn't answer the question
We can never say a man is better then women because eve is are mother and ofcourse prophets are men and mohamed peace be up him is the best of creations but in comparison we are not better than aisha and maryiam. And allah will judge us by faith and action not gender. women and men can either go hell or heaven

@@brucewayne7875 It is a form of worship in that sense that if you had the intention to fast or pray, but couldn't, you will be rewarded as if you did do it.

It is a act of worship also because you are abiding by the law of Allah(swt), and you are fulfilling your duty. So you can be in your bed and relax a little, and that is a Mercy from Allah(swt).
In Islam, in order to pray, you must have wudu (complete ablution). Ablution can not be completed if a handful or more of bodily fluid leaves the body, whether that be sick, an open wound.etc. When women menstruate, women are consistently bleeding, which is why you cannot have complete wudu, which is why you cannot pray.

The amount of logical fallacies that piles up in this video is hilarious.
Being held accountable for beliefs, sayings, and actions doesn't make a religion right or truthful. Denying accountability certainly doesn't make said beliefs right. That's the same argument that all religions make. Every religion has contradictions in their writings and beliefs. And every religion will chose one part of the scriptures to promote certain cultural and societal beliefs. You used the prophet's words about women not being found deficient in intellect, but then use restrictions to perform activities during menstruation as a sign of deficiency in ability, and decision making. That is a clear example of using the prophet's words in a way that is contradictory. The example of menstruation has nothing to do with level of intellect. You just argued against your prophet. People aren't attacking the belief in Islam, they are challenging the misinformation and misunderstanding that is being used to propagate an unjust system that even your religion teaches against. Christianity, Judaism, and other religions do the same thing, and people challenge them as well. So you can't use being challenged on your beliefs as a litmus test for being on the right path, bc that would mean that all the other religions are right as well. I actually think the prophet had great respect for women and believed in their capabilities. He also wanted them to be protected from brutality and disrespect that is often seen in all societies. Thank God for science, we understand menstruation and a lot of other things better today, and we know that menstruation is not unclean or causing deficiency. Let's follow truth, not ignorance.

I will just say that you have to use your intellect to think about these matters. If there is a general rule, it doesn't mean that it applies to everyone equally. This is a basic concept most people with intellect understand very easily. In other words, there may be some women who are more wise than many men. But that won't negate the general principle if there is a general principle that women are weaker in intellect. And I say this without saying that I know for sure what is meant in the Hadith as I have not studied this Hadith, I am not a scholar, nor have I heard from scholars about the understanding of the Hadith except a little. The problem is the general populace is very weak in intellect in general these days, both men and women, and so you see very foolish comments on social media with no adab/manners. You cannot become wise without adab because pride is then blocking your way.
