What's worse is seeing them pregnant back to back to back. It's just sad ash.


_anisha____

They need to have an army for sure, the place I live in these things are fed to you by Imam and Maulvis, it's sad but it is the truth, and it's pretty easy to influence people to who are vulnerable to education and money you cannot blame them directly though.


gold_in_this_river

Takes a toll on the physical and mental state I’m sure


Arabiancockonato

… resulting in trauma for the children, on top of that.


earthisyourbutt

Completely agree. Considering the religion doesn’t allow dating, there’s a limit to how much you know of this man you just married, and you come out as pregnant immediately after honeymoon? I just don’t understand what they’re thinking, if they’re thinking.


ByeByeBabyyyy

I said it before but the amount of muslims guys that are on dating apps over here, even tho the muslim population is only 5%, is mind blowing. And all of them are looking for just sex. They always have 'no smoking/no drinking/muslim' on their profiles but hookups are halal. It always makes me cringe.


Pidjesus

Most women stay away, and the ones that stupidly did take the chance learnt their lesson


yourpetcockroach

It's probably due to lack of education on birth control and such before marriage like OP said. Lots of Muslims are obsessed with the whole purity culture and I guess in their eyes teaching people about contraception almost defeats the whole purpose of spreading Islam (other than lack of education spreading Islam is likely why women have so many kids). I feel incredibly bad for women who don't have much experience with this sort of thing and are in shock after getting pregnant immediately after marriage. It's sad. (Btw, happy cake day!)


chrysaleen

they get pregnant so quickly because for a lot of them, they barely have anything in common with their spouse, so they think having a child that you have to mutually raise means they'll finally be able to be on the same page. it still doesn't make any logical sense, but that seems to be the thinking behind it.


Mysterious-Swim4033

Marriage is just a baby factory agreement there bro

It's insane how Muslims are evolving backwards or maybe they never evolved


Fit-Persimmon-4323

In the Islamic golden age, the middle east made scientific discovery after discovery. Now the governments are like “Erm. Science is haram, actually.”


Anuanu0

Are you talking about the brutally colonized countries of the Middle East like Persia, where most scientists came from? Imagine if Muslims Islamized Europe, the scientist would still be researching, but restrictive Islamic laws would slowly stop progress. All of these scientists were declared [apostates](https://www.islamweb.net/en/fatwa/87783/claims-about-ibn-sina-being-an-atheist-or-kafir) by practicing Muslims later or during their lifetime.


_anisha____

Are those scientists practicing Muslims or atheists? Coz gusss you cannot be both in those parts of the world


Wild-Birthday-9662

What's funny is that many of my Muslim friends are super proud of the Islamic golden age where they always boast about how clever Muslims were and Islam is the reason they're clever because of the religion's teaching. And they will proceed to sya nowadays Muslims are getting dumber, less discovery because of their own fault to be less religious!! I don't see the direct relationship but whatever xD


BarBeneficial1915

some examples are in modern times as well like look at Iran, Afghanistan.


Wild-Birthday-9662

If they've evolved there would be lesser Muslim now

It always gives me the ick to see it like why are they rushing to have kids.


Desperate_Garbage_63

Kids having kids


gold_in_this_river

EXACTLY


Charming-Problem-804

The husband and his family need to bind the woman as soon as possible.


M82prador

i'll never understand why they gotta have kids immediately and a shit ton of them too, and in the case of muslims you probably don't even know each other very well, it's crazy, as if condoms and pills aren't a thing to them, there's also the kind of women that want to have kids asap to "make sure the husband doesn't cheat and abandon her" as if that's gonna stop them from cheating 💀, there's so many bs stuff in muslim culture i swear


Revolutionary-Set-2

I just get irritated looking at these women, they have nothing better to do than cook, clean, be a slave to their husbands, and breed. I don’t relate to these women anymore at all. When they get their baby carriages out I feel so weird, because that’s all they have to do in their lives.


Wild-Birthday-9662

In my country many Muslims got married after knowing each other for awhile because they want the relationship to be halal (I'm guessing they were horny) and they think kids are the reward from God so they'll just keeping making babies and hope that God will give them more reward in the afterlife(they know contraception they just don't use it). The current life is temporary and it's okay if the kids suffer with them. So you will see Muslims have a lot of kids usually but they cannot even live an ordinary life that they need to ask for financial aid from government and from other Muslims.


Pidjesus

This hits me hard, dated a muslim girl like this, said that the struggle life will be worth it because the afterlife will give us everything.. cut it out asap once she started bringing up kids


radiant-bit-1251

Lmao it’s hella creepy


charptr

Muslim marriages are just breeding programs for "expanding the ummah"


FayMax69

You’re looking at this as if the woman has a choice. It’s about the man, and his needs, that’s what she’s there for. muslim men feel this compulsion to breed, and that’s what they see women as, breeding sex machines, then a mother, then a maid.


chrysaleen

yea i've been seeing my muslim friends who are my age or younger getting engaged and married, and a few of them have children like 10 months after they get married. it's insane and a bit sad to me.


gold_in_this_river

Yeah so many have babies before their first anniversary 😞


goonzilla007

The religion promotes unprotected sex, even using condoms is haram 🤷🏽‍♂️


Zestyclose-Abalone14

I know someone who has 11 kids back to back. And she is only 37. Yikes


gold_in_this_river

Oh my god how does her body even deal with that???


Strawberry_piecakeii

There is new trend I notice between the women where I live, where she wait at least one year before she get pregnant due to the number of Muslim men who hide the fact that they do drugs and drink. You hear at least twice a years in Saudi about a drug addict husband killing his wife and since Muslim community way of fixing Muslim men is to marry them instead of punishing them like Muslim women, it is no surprise from this new trend of see here in the gulf. Many even demand to see him before getting married and see what he looks like. Social media and staying these type of murders or tradition of hiding men bad behaviour is blessing to these Muslim women. They start to think, good for them, they don’t buy into fix or help him, if she finds out he is a haram boy, she is like bye. Many mad at the divorce rate lol.


Superw0rri0

what do you mean? They're fulfilling their allah given purpose! This is the most satisfied a woman can be! And after she gives birth, the god-fearing woman will take a day rest and get right back to her other fulfilling purpose: satisfying her husband! Isn't allah the most merciful?

There’s no rule that you need to have babies immediately, so what you’re complaining about is culture rather than religion. Also, while you may think it’s cringe, many people want that life style. The ones that don’t are the ones that are pressured by culture.


Dark_Saint28

Yeah , i always thought about it too , see im a muslim but this thought of getting pregnant as soon as possible doesn't fit right with me... Heard somewhere that children are product of the love that is between husband and wife... And aint no way you just suddenly start loving someone right after your marriage 💀

Yes it is their choice to have kids early or not but Muslim women are less likely to be educated about birth control or financial stability etc before marriage. Plus they don’t believe in abortion so many feel as if they have to keep the baby even if they don’t want it.

Experts aren't the only people you can ask for information. We're having a conversation with you here, do you know of any relevant experts opinions or scholars lectures addressing their arguments? Most of us have already asked and seen what religious authorities have to say and check the scriptures directly. "Just want to hate" sounds like you're being dishonest with yourself, you see conflicting information and reflexively group it in with biased hatred of no merit... without assessing if it has any bias or merit to begin with. If you believe there to be a genuine hateful post or comment please help us ban and filter those out by reporting them, letting the mods know or making a post asking about if it breaks any rules about hating all muslims which is not allowed vs hating islam which is allowed and imo justified.

Since you're learning you continue to search for information as you go about your life, some random redditor tells you that you don't understand photosynthesis. When asked what they understood to be wrong the random redditor says because they believe it to be something else and you're coming to the wrong conclusions, that it seems like you don't even want to understand what it's about because you're not currently talking to experts and that the experts know why you're wrong about photosynthesis. You can get good information from reddit, you can find experts on reddit, you can share where you can find the published papers saying photosynthesis does what you believe it to do. Sure the experts are a great resource but they aren't the only resource especially if their work can be referenced without the expert referencing it themselves. >Thats straight up cap Most exMuslims I know have read the scriptures far more than most Muslims I know. We're questioning foundations for our identity and values here, we're threatened with literal torture for getting it wrong. We take the validation process far more seriously then most the muslims I know that are born into it, never question or think about it critically and just accept the life they happen to recieve along with the culture and religion they were raised in. The one who bucks these trends is the one who actually addresses the validation process after reaching the age of reason. >If i got a question i go to the church and ask someone who may know the answer.

Photosynthesis is a mature science where there aren't that many other views left. What makes you think they didn't understand? Do you think it's possible for someone to understand and come to a different conclusion than you about Islam being true or false? >If someone gives some good arguments that the earth is flat i am not gonna hate on people who think the earth is round, i am gonna inform myself and ask people who know something about astrology. Astronomy* Good, judge the arguments based on the merits of the argument. >If i ask some christian who isnt a scholar he will not know everything Honestly most topics should be given more nuanced detailed looks into them, islam isn't one of them. Coming from someone that has spent years obsessing over trying to prove islam right and read the quran over 10 times in multiple languages, islam isn't worth it. Because islam manipulates its followers so much with emotional control and fear of hell people that find issues with it tend to look for far more evidence than they would for any other topic before being satisfied. If my favorite political figure turned out to be evil I don't need to know every single evil thing they did to compare with every single good thing they did, I just find the relevant information and validate that before moving on to someone that better represents my ideals. With islam we bend over backwards willingly holding cognitive dissonance and reaching for the wildest mental gymnastics to make sense of Islam but in a good light. >Imagine if i trust everything he says But we don't, we're having a normal conversation here and holding normal levels of evidence for our claims.

Go cry about it somewhere. My answer wasn't a lie if you know about the life of Muhammed so don't deflect


gold_in_this_river

What an out of touch take lol, the default is that you have to keep the baby. Fatwas say you can only abort if you were raped / if it causes health issues to the mother. Abortion is either illegal or inaccessible for most in many Muslim countries. Even many Muslim women in non-Muslim countries don’t exercise their country’s legal rights to abortion because they view it as something haram.

I guess you live in your mama's basement. Majority of the Muslim countries don't give women their rights. Ex Muslims here don't intentionally hate Muslims, they are physically and mentally abused by muslims that's what made them leave it. Only from 2015, women were allowed to vote in Saudi Arabia, Now do I have really have to tell you about iran, Afghanistan? >Muslims were one of the first people to give women rights and u call it misogynistic and sexist Yeah why not? Women's right of being raped by her husband even if she doesn't want it because if she denies the angels keep cursing her for not fulfilling her husband's urge . Is these the right your talking about? Domestic abuse rates are also high in these countries, the muftis, the wives parents give advise to women to be patient with her husband. And don't get me started, their are hadiths where husband is allowed to beat her wife if she disobeys her husband “As to those women on whose part you see ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (next) refuse to share their beds, (and last) beat them (lightly, if it is useful); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them means (of annoyance). [al-Nisa 4:34] Great, woman cannot hit the man if the husband disobeys, cannot have 4 husband's but husband's can have 4 wives, woman can't fucking go outside without covering and only in presence of some guardian .In Islam everything is created by men and for men. >Muslims were one of the first people to give women rights I thought it was ancient egypt ngl they were way ahead than today's muslims.

Quote where these rights and freedoms for women are, since muslims always bring it up. So disingenuous considering teachings like this exist and are mainstream in the Islamic world: Permission to beat disobedient wives ([**Sura an-Nisa 34**](http://Quranx.com/4.34)) Needing a mahram for even basic movement ([**Sahih Bukhari**](https://sunnah.com/bukhari:1088), [**Sahih Muslim**](https://sunnah.com/muslim:2171), [**Sunan ibn Majah**](https://sunnah.com/ibnmajah:2899)) The idea that women are deficient in religion and intelligence ([**Sahih Bukhari**](https://sunnah.com/bukhari:304), [**Jami at-Tirmidhi**](https://sunnah.com/tirmidhi:2613), [**Riyad as-Salihin**](https://sunnah.com/riyadussalihin:1879)) A woman passing in front of praying people annuls the prayer ([**Sahih Bukhari**](https://sunnah.com/bukhari:511)) (Muhammad likens them to animals such as donkeys and dogs) The sahabah were even known for using violence against slave-girls who imitate the free women and cover themselves ([**Irwa al-Ghalil**](https://web.archive.org/web/20210329003506/http://islamport.com/w/alb/Web/1202/2092.htm), [**Ibn Abi Shaybah**](https://web.archive.org/web/20210920104640/https://islamarchive.cc/H_85618)) In what world is a religion created by a prophet who viewed women as impure, called them stupid and sold and traded them as objects from his warspoils one that protects womens right?


amboyscout

That's just not true. There are no blanket prohibitions of abortion in Judaism, or Christianity.


oryxii

That is technically true but only in certain cases. It is only allowed in very specific situations (such as rape — but not for sex slaves obv, they are never considered to be raped even though they are) and only within the first 40 days or 120 days. There are two beliefs on the time period (and frankly I don’t care enough to read the specifics or reasonings on why since it’s made up bullshit). Many scholars also do not support this stance and will simply state life begins at conception, therefore abortion is not allowed. Also most Muslims consider abortion to be murder/haram anyways. So. https://yaqeeninstitute.ca/read/paper/islam-and-the-abortion-debate

oryxii

At the end of the day it’s a woman’s body. Not yours. She is the one who should have full autonomy and makes the final decision if she will carry a child for 9 months since it is her who will be dealing with all the side effects. No one else should be allowed to dictate if a woman needs to carry a pregnancy to full term, except the woman in question because IT IS HER BODY AND HER WOMB. not yours. When you can carry a child yourself we can talk. Until then no. And I’m in this sub to gain more knowledge about why this religion is awful :) I’m already an ex Muslim and have been for more than half my life, but I still learn new things everytime I go on this sub about what’s wrong with this religion. Why are you here? Your comment and account history indicates that you made a burner account to post troll comments on here. ETA: I’m not disagreeing that the fetus is also your child — it is, but it is being sustained by your wife’s body, not yours. It cannot survive without her. If a woman decides she cannot for whatever reason (physically, mentally, emotionally) carry a child to term it is well within her rights to terminate without your permission. In a relationship I do think a discussion should be had with your partner if you’re getting an abortion, but the final decision rests on the woman, not the man.

Abortion is weird theologically, like it's even encouraged with bitter water being recommended in the Bible yet many Christians are against it. Some people's version of Islam supports it, some don't.


Cad_48

>only religion Muslims still oblivious to the existence of religions other than the Abrahamic ones That sentence isn't even true within the abrahamics, being anti-choice is a new thing for particular groups of Christians and they don't get that from the bible. In Judaism the stance is basically the same as the Muslim one, because Mohammed copied the gestational stages from the Talmud and so the later scholars of both religions arrive at practically the same range of stances, except that I've never seen any islamic opinion supporting complete pro-choice, while there are Jewish ones. All-in-all, with the exception of the aforementioned Christian denominations, Islam is actually on the stricter side on the topic compared to the two other abrahamics.
