@Jake -
4:34 - "Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard in (the husband's) absence what Allah would have them guard. As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (next) refuse to share their beds, (and last) beat them (lightly); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them means (of annoyance): for Allah is Most High, Great (above you all). "
beat them (lightly) - means using a small twig, and hitting on their hands. But even the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said himself - that those who beat their wives are not the best of the Muslims, meaning it is not encouraged in anyway and he did not himself ever harm his wives.
66:10 - "Allah sets forth, for an example to the Unbelievers, the wife of Noah and the wife of Lut: they were (respectively) under two of Our righteous servants but they were false to their (husbands), and they profited nothing before Allah on their account, but were told: "Enter ye the Fire along with (others) that enter!""
^Also the same story in Christian belief I think, I dunno about Jewish belief. This ayah (verse) talks about previous generation to encourage obedience to your husband, but obviously if what he tells you is wrong then women have a mind of their own.
I could actually refute every argument you have given, but I can't be bothered because you will not listen. And NO I'm not trying to convert you, but because of people like you, others have the wrong idea about Islam. Just read a book called Women in Islam.
And this...
"As you can see. Women are not treated equal. Mohammed used women like cattle. He also hates non believers as well. "
Mohammad (PBUH) did treat women like equals, in fact Islam gave more rights to women before any other culture and religion, his first wife owned her own business. He didn't hate non-believers, Jews and Christians were considered part of the Muslim "Ummah" (community) for many many years, but after several attempts on the Prophet's life he had to reclassify this to include just Muslims. He even went to help a Jewish woman that used to throw rubbish at him when he walked through the street, because she was ill and he was worried for her.
The Qur'an does say things about disbelievers, which I'm sure you'll quote soon lol, but when interpreting the Qur'an you need to take into account the context in which EACH ayah was revealed, and what the Prophet's hadith about these ayahs. These specific ayahs ordering Muslims to kill the disbelievers were revealed during times of War. Meaning they are only applicable when and where there is war, not at all times.
