Bigotry:
The Dark Danger

In order to act on the morality described in the Qur'an, all a

woman needs is to fear God. Those people who maintain that piety
can only be established when imposed by a man seek to make sure
those superstitious traditions and customs dating back to pre-Islam-
ic times dominate life.

In addition, God reveals in the Qur'an that Muslims, be they
men or women, should eat and drink everything that is lawful -
without being extravagant of course - come to the mosque in the

finest clothes, wear jewels and be clean and well-groomed.

Children of Adam! Put on your adornment in every mosque and
eat and drink but do not be profligate. He does not love the prof-
ligate. (Qur'an, 7:31)
There are no verses about a woman not going out of doors.
On the contrary, it can clearly be seen from verses that the

social responsibilities that God imposes on women
require that they play an intensive role in social life.
Those fabricated hadiths are therefore at complete
variance with the Qur'an.
