Freedom Of Mind
On an individual basis I mainly agree with you.
However, on an institutional basis I vehemently disagree. If muslim-dominated societies display certain behaviours, condoned by the state, (eg torture), but these behaviours are rare and considered reprehensible in many non-muslim ones, what is one to make of the difference?
If knowing that a society is muslim-dominated leads to successful prediction that murderous religious intolerance, mysogyny, corruption, torture etc are common in that society, what is one to conclude?
Of course, it may be that the influence is opposite to what may seem obvious: islam may make people barbarous, or barbarians may be particularly attracted to islam. I'm not sure how one would decide.
Women during the Islamic empire have a high position and that is why women are well protected even from the eyes of men that may think to look with dirty eyes to their bodies,it is to say i am not just a body.
Women are well protected as not to be hired by men for one night pleasure or even by USD ?/hour,prostition in Islam is forbidden as it hurts women's dignity.
One story for a woman that have been insulted by a disbeliever in the era of Khalifa Al Mu'tasim,the khalifa sent his army and under his command to save the dignity of that woman.
Of course nowadays there is no islamic states and those leaders of nowadays are signs of the end of times which is happening in front of hour eyes exactly as foretold by the prophet.
