refuting misconceptions:1-women in Islam

2:223 (from Abdullah Yussuf Ali) "Your wives are as a tilth unto you; so approach your tilth when or how ye will; but do some good act for your souls beforehand; and fear Allah."

If your explanation was the original intent of this verse, why did they not write explicitly about feelings and emotions, or at least something like "be good to her during the act" ? The message is not clear at all, it seems like a general advice to do some good acts for both of them without specifying which acts. Moreover, it says "BEFOREHAND" (and all translations agree that it is something done BEFORE the act) so it can't be to care about her during the act.

Oh I can totally rely to your argument! Even myself I sometimes kill people for fun, but don't worry, I DO IT EXTREMELY RARELY and I make sure to let noone see me![/sarcasm] The rarity doesn't make it OK and is no excuse at all ! I cannot respect a text which demands to kill someone for having sex in public. If it's in the Qur'an (and I'd like to have the quote) then no matter how great the rest of the book might be (and it certainly is not!), it is still sick !
Same thing for the 80 lashes (24:2)

Quote:From what I read, Islam at the very least imposes very specific and strict "roles" to men and women, and I don't call that Freedom, at all.
you have the freedom to do the good thing or to do the bad thing
If there is a punishment directly afterward it's not freedom.

So you're saying that you encounter women with no hijab frequently, you know God will punish them but you don't do anything like telling her she should wear it ? If you have any empathy you should do that everytime !
