Sexism in religion and misconceptions of people
Sexism in religion and misconceptions of people KqVWk
We cannot say that religions are the only cause of inequality between men and women. Early humans imitated animals in dividing the roles of men and women. They thought that this was natural and therefore the way it should be. At that time, these assigned roles were due only to the balance of physical power and the biological characteristics of the human body. After religion entered the scene, this inequality spread to all areas of life, from religions to cultures.
Starting with the oldest Torah, we will examine the place of women in Judaism, Christianity and Islam, which are accepted as the 3 major religions worldwide, respectively.
The story of the woman in the Torah begins with the creation of Eve and her fall from heaven.
The foundation of Christianity, whose origins date back to the first century. It is believed that they are created differently as natures and their life purposes are different. In order to reach a general idea, we should examine this subject only according to the Qur'an, the holy book, independent of the practices of the communities. If we go back to the beginning, the story of Adam and Eve's expulsion from heaven, which we call the original, is handled differently in the Qur'an. Because Eve is a sinful woman who seduced Adam, her punishment is not accepted in Islam. Instead, he accepts that they both have equal responsibility and, in this respect, he adopts an egalitarian attitude. But the creation of the first woman as a part of Adam is a common denominator in all religions. Since the importance of fighting and surviving in the first period when Islam first came to people, women were considered to be physically disadvantaged and biologically weak. That's why there are verses about the protection and protection of women. "Orphan and woman, fear God about these two weaklings. " (Munawi, Feyzül-Kadir, I/128) In this and many other verses, God directly addresses men and gives instructions on how to treat women. He claims that women are sanctified as mothers or wives. "Paradise is under the feet of mothers. " (Nasai, Jihad, 6) One of the most questioned topics today is marriage. Islam, which gives men the right to marry more than once, does not recognize this right for women. It even forbids women from marrying a man of another religion, unlike men. Because he calls the woman an object that must be trained and directed by the man. She argues that the religions are sexist.
