Mohammed's High Regard For Women

M uch has been spoken about the inhuman treatment of women in Islam.
If one wants to know the reason behind this, one has to closely
examine Mohammed's personal life. As far as women are conecerned, they
were just objects of sexual desire for Prophet Mohammed.

Here I expose the insatiable sexual appetite that Mohammed possessed.
This goes to show that among others, one of the main reasons for
forming this insidious religion, Islam, was so that sex was freely
available to the male followers in the name of Allah. As I have
already proved in my article, Wondrous Treatment of Women In Islam,
the Quran justifies treating a woman as nothing but an object for
sexual desire and sometimes even an ordinary object would be treated
better. Suras in the Quran seem to pop up conveniently, so that
Mohammed can justify his perverted sexual actions. For example, when
Mohammed wanted his adopted son's wife, he suddenly got a revelation
from Allah declaring it right to take another man's wife. When he
wanted to stop his wives from quarreling or to accept more wives, he
got a quick revelation for it. My above points are illustrated from
the verses taken from Sura 33.

(Sura 33:28) "O Prophet! Say to thy consorts: 'If it be that ye desire
the life of this world and its glitter then come! I will provide for
your enjoyment and set you free in a handsome manner.'

(Sura 33:30) "O Consorts of the Prophet if any of you were guilty of
evident unseemly conduct, the punishment would be doubled to her, and
that is easy for Allah."

(Sura 33:37) "....Fear Allah. Then when Zayad had dissolved his
marriage with her (Zainab) we joined her in marriage to thee: in order
that there may be no difficulty to the believers in the matter of
marriage of the wives of their adopted sons...."

The prophet's interactions with women, his insatiable lust for
lascivious ladies, his lecherous behaviour with his wives and
concubines are components that form the model of a true muslim. The
prophet is the perfect muslim man for all devout muslims as he is the
one whom Allah chose to reveal the Quran to. And because he is the
perfect man it is every muslim's duty to follow him. For example, they
cannot eat pork because Mohammed disliked it, they have to grow a
beard like he had, they have to loot and kill like he did and likewise
they have to molest and treat women inhumanly as he did!

1. The "great" Mohammed, the founder of this "fabulous" faith was
married to Khadija Bibi who was his employer and 15 years his senior.
At that time Mohammed was 25 years old. He was Khadija Bibi's 3rd
husband. Khadija Bibi was a rich widow when she married Mohammed. For
the first time in his life, Mohammed enjoyed a luxurious life.

This shows the parasitic nature of Mohammed who married his
employer so that he can live a rich life without putting in a single
day's work.

2. Khadija Bibi died when Mohammed was 49 years old. Between the
ages of 49 and 63 the "great prophet" married at least 11 times.

This shows how he treated the institution of marriage. For him,
women were nothing but objects for sexual fulfillment. Marrying at
least 11 women in 14 years throws light on his insatiable sexual
appetite. Read on about the "greatness" of this prophet.

3. Among his many other wives Mohammed also married a 6 year old
baby, Ayesha. She was his favourite wife.

This marriage is a clear proof that his pedophilic tendency
started manifesting itself after Khadija's death, because when she was
alive he did not want to offend her because all the wealth belonged to
her.

4. The prophet said that, "the woman can be married for religion,
her fortune, or her beauty. So marry one for the religion" (Abu Issa
al-Tarmidi, Sunan al- Tarmidi, Medina n.d., p.275, B: 4, H:1092)

Therefore, according to the Prophet the woman is either a
creature who will be subjected to brutal conversion to Islam, a golden
goose or a sexual plaything. Her virtues, intelligence or personality
do not matter. But Mohammed did not stop there. He recommends all
muslims to marry "one for the religion". Now what does this mean ? It
means that use the institution of marriage to convert people to Islam.
Now you know why so many Muslim men marry non-muslims and convert them
to Islam. It also shows what high regard Islam has for the sacred
institution of Marriage.

5. In many occasions Mohammed did not even spare women who were
originally allotted to other soldiers of his tribe after gaining a
victory in War. One such woman was Safia Bint Huyay. This Jewish woman
was captured by lecherous muslim invaders after the Jews were brutally
murdered by Mohammed. According to a Quranic Sura (8:41) four fifths
of any booty or spoil that is won after murdering the non-believers,
is distributed to the barbaric invaders. In Islam, women of other
religion are also considered as booty, so Safiya bint Huyay was
allotted to a soldier called Dahia. But when Mohammed the ascetic
heard of her 'incomparable beauty', he sent for Dahiya, paid him
Safiya's price and married her. (Ibn Saad, al-Tabaqat, pp. 120-123).

6. Safiya Bint Huyway was just one of the numerous Jewish women who
became prey to Mohammed's insatiable sexual desire. Regardless of his
participation in these barbaric raids Mohammed was alloted 1/5 of the
booty as prescribed in the Quran, Sura 8:41. Rayhana Bint Zayd was
another Jewish woman, whom Mohammed captured after her tribe was
totally butchered. She was known to be a woman of immense beauty.
Mohammed kept her as a concubine. (Ibid., p. 129)

During Mohammed's time a lot of barbaric wars were instigated by
the muslims and Mohammed was always the receiver of at least one
fifths of the booty. This booty included captured women and children.
One can imagine how many women were made into concubines for Prophet
Mohammed's carnal pleasure and how many children were his victims.

7. Maria the Copt from Egypt, was another concubine of Mohammed.
She bore him a son, Ibrahim, who died in infancy. The Prophet's desire
for Maria was so strong that it led him to violate another of his
ideals: "That a man should be just in his dealings with his wives. A
man should keep strictly to the rotation schedule and not have
intercourse with a wife, even if he so desired."

Hafsa, one of the Prophet's wives, however, caught him having
intercourse with Maria in Safiya's room. 'O Prophet of God, in my room
and in my day!' fulminated Safiya angrily. Afraid of the anger of his
other wives, and especially of his most beloved Ayesha, he promised
Hafsa never to touch Maria again if she would keep the incident secret
(Ibid., p. 213). But she spoke out, and the Prophet immediately
received orders from God to retract his promise to Safiya; he then
resumed relations with Maria (Sura 66:3).

Maria's power over the Prophet is best described in Ayesha's
words: "I never was as jealous as I was of Maria again. That is
because she was a very beautiful, curly haired woman. The Prophet was
very attracted to her. In the beginning, she was living near us and
the Prophet spent entire days and nights with her until we protested
and she became frightened." (Ibn Saad, al-Tabaqat, p. 212)

The Prophet then decided to transfer Maria to a more secure
dwelling far from his legitimate wives and kept seeing her inspite of
their pressure.

8. Another woman that the Prophet married for satisfying his sexual
desires was Juwariya Bint al-Harith who was according to Ayesha's
description, 'so beautiful that whoever caught a glimpse of her fell
in love with her.' (Ibid. p.117)
Ayesha's jealousy is displayed again from the following quote:
"The Prophet was in my room when Juwariya came to ask him about a
contract. By Allah, I hated her when I saw her coming towards him. I
knew that he was going to see what I saw (her beauty)." (Ibid)

9. A unique instance of the effect of female beauty on the Prophet
was that of Duba Bint Amr who 'was among the most beautiful of Arab
women....her hair was long enough to cover all her body.'(Ibid., p.
153) Mohammed asked her son if he could marry his mother, but later
retracted when he heard that Duba Bint Amr, although attractive, was
aging.

This shows that Mohammed was only interested in physical beauty
and not in providing protection for widows or some other charitable
cuase as the Muslims have been brain washed to believe.

10. Mohammed's adopted son Zayed was married to Zainab, daughter of
Jahsh. But one day the prophet "beheld in a loose undress, the beauty
of Zainab, and burst forth into an ejaculation of devotion and desire.
The servile, or greatful, freeman (Zayed) understood the hint and
yielded without hesitation to the love of the benefactor."

Mohammed was not satisfied with his own overflowing harem and
had to marry his son's wife. His son being a devoted follower of the
"great" prophet was more than happy to divorce his wife. What a great
father-in-law Mohammed was, a model for all Islamic father-in-laws.

Muslim scholar and statesman, Ali Dashti gives the following list of
women in Mohammed's life.

1. Khadija
2. Sawda
3. Ayesha
4. Omm Salama
5. Hafsa
6. Zainab (of Jahsh)
7. Juwariya
8. Omm Habiba
9. Safia
10. Maymuna (of Hareth)
11. Fatima
12. Hend
13. Asma (of Saba)
14. Zainab (of Khozayma)
15. Habla
16. Asma (of Noman)
17. Maria
18. Rayhana
19. Omm Sharik
20. Maymuna (not of Hareth)

As a fitting punishment for all his heinous crimes against women, it
was a Jewish woman who poisoned him in her rightful quest for revenge
after the battle of Khaybar. During the last four years of his life,
his health declined, epileptic fits became more frequent and his other
infirmities increased. After living a life of rape, perversion,
destruction and plunder, at the age of 62, Mohammed gasped his last
breath on the lap of his 17 year old child bride Ayesha who watched
him die a slow , long and horrible death.
