refuting misconceptions:1-women in Islam

[AtheistPhil]

I assume you are going to say that your beliefs are the only true Islamic beliefs in the Muslim world. How predictable that you would feel that way

what do u mean by other beliefs?

Sunni, Shi'a, Ahmadiyya, Sufism, Salafi just to name a few...



About the verses dealing with wife beating, I understand that there are "soft" interpretations possible. But even then, the Qur'an gives advices to the husband if his wife misbehaves and as far as I know not the other way around: the husband is shown as the head of the household and the one responsible for saving the marriage and dealing with problems in the household. He is in charge thus superior to his wife.
