CHAPTER 13 AHLUL SUNNAH UPHOLD BIBLICAL PREJUDICE AGAINST MENSTRUATING WOMEN

In the religion of Ahlul Sunnah women occupy a low second class position in

society. In the Shiah religion, women occupy an even lower rung in the

second class citizenship sweepstakes. Why ? This is because the Ahlul Sunnah and Shiahs have adopted really cruel Biblical teachings which aim to put down

the women in society.

We know the prescription of the headcover or ‘hijaab’ for women which is an entirely Christian invention found in the Bible in the 1st Book of Corinthians, Chapter 11. Mother Theresa was the best example of a hijaab wearing woman.

These teachings are not found anywhere in the Quran. They are not part of

the Prophet’s teachings. These are falsehoods stolen or plagiarised from

the Christian Bible and then passed off as part of the religion of Ahlul Sunnah and Shiah.

Another example by which the Ahlul Sunnah and Shiahs put down their women is by telling the women that they are unclean when the women are menstruating. The degree of torture on the women varies between the various sects and subsects of Ahlul Sunnah and Shiah.

For example, the Ahlul Sunnah say that when a woman is menstruating she

cannot pray. A menstruating woman cannot go to the mosque. A menstruating

woman cannot touch the Quran. A menstruating woman cannot fast. A

menstruating woman cannot perform the haj.

Similarly when a Sunni woman gives birth, she is considered spiritually

unclean for varying periods of time usually forty days, 30 days or whatever

– depending on which Sunni sect she belongs to. She has many restrictions imposed on her during this time. Such is the false religion of Ahlul Sunnah.

You can never find these false ideas in the Prophet’s true teachings which

is the Quran. But where do these strange ideas come from ? Yes sir/madam

you guessed it. It all comes from the Christian Bible.

[Lev 12:2] "Say to the people of Israel, If a woman conceives, and bears a

male child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as at the time of her

menstruation, she shall be unclean.

[Lev 12:4] Then she shall continue for thirty-three days in the blood of her

purifying; she shall not touch any hallowed thing, nor come into the

sanctuary, until the days of her purifying are completed.

Seven plus thirty three = forty days of uncleanness, exactly the same

period of uncleanness prescribed by the Ahlul Sunnah for post delivery mothers.

[Lev 12:5] But if she bears a female child, then she shall be unclean two

weeks, as in her menstruation; and she shall continue in the blood of her

purifying for sixty-six days.

The discrimination against women starts early. The period of uncleanness if

a girl child is born is 80 days.

The Quran does address the issue of the women’s menses. Lets look at the

following beautiful and simple teaching of the Quran :

[al-Baqarah 2:222] They question thee (O Prophet) concerning menstruation.

Say: It is an illness, so let women alone at such times and go not in unto

them till they are cleansed. And when they have purified themselves, then go

in unto them as Allah hath enjoined upon you. Truly Allah loveth those who

turn unto Him, and loveth those who have a care for cleanness.

The only teaching here in the Quran is that during their menstruation men should not approach women for sex (“and go not in unto them till they are cleansed”) because they are unclean. Why ? Because they are having their period. After they are clean, men can resume their relations with women ( And when they have purified themselves, then go in unto them as Allah hath enjoined upon you).

It does not take a rocket scientist to figure this out. There is a multi

billion dollar female hygiene products market that caters exclusively for women’s

hygiene. Everyone knows that. Even the non Muslims know this. But having

their periods does not prevent women from driving cars, teaching at school,

breaking the Olympic record, sailing around the world or cooking for

their Sunni husbands.

The false teachings about menstruation are nothing more than a fabrication

by their Ahlul Sunnah ulema to impose Biblical teachings upon the Ahlul Sunnah.
