More Wrong Teachings in Dr Zakir Naik’s Book
In Chapter 4 of his book ‘Answers to non Muslims common questions about Islam’ Dr Zakir Naik talks about Hijab.
In this chapter Dr Zakir Naik says that his religion (Sunnism) uplifted women and gave them equality and expects them to maintain their status. This is an untrue statement by Zakir Naik.
We all know that among the Sunnis and Shiahs, women are treated very badly.
But Zakir wants us to believe that only his religion of Sunnism respects and uplifts the status of women. He also tries his same old trick of putting down other civilizations.
He says “The Egyptian civilization considered women evil and as a sign of the devil”
OK the Egyptians were crazies, but how how does Dr Zakir Naik explain the following hadith from Bukhari which also says that women are evil:
Hadith Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 71, Number 666: Narrated 'Abdullah bin Umar: Allah's Apostle said, "there is neither 'Adha nor Tiyara, and an evil omen is only in three: a horse, a woman and a house."
Hadith Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 71, Number 649: Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: Allah's Apostle said, "There is neither 'Adha (no contagious disease is conveyed to others without Allah's permission) nor Tiyara, but an evil omen may be in three a woman, a house or an animal."
Hadith Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 110: Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: I heard the Prophet saying. "Evil omen is in three things: The horse, the woman and the house."
Then Dr Zakir says that under the Greek civilization “women were deprived of all rights and were looked down upon”.
If so then how does Dr Zakir Naik explain the fact that in his religion of Sunnism, women were also looked down upon and even downgraded to the status of dogs and donkeys? Here is more hadith from Bukhari:
Hadith Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 9, Number 490: Narrated 'Aisha: The things which annul the prayers were mentioned before me. They said, "Prayer is annulled by a dog, a donkey and a woman (if they pass in front of the praying people)." I said, "You have made us (i.e. women) dogs..’
Dr Zakir also says that the woman is crooked. Here it is:
Hadith Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 62, Number 113: Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "The woman is like a rib; if you try to straighten her, she will break. So if you want to get benefit from her, do so while she still has some crookedness."
And then Dr Zakir Naik says that the majority of women are evil and therefore they will burn in the hellfire. In the same breath, he also says that women are stupid. Here it is again:
Hadith Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 6, Number 301: Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
Once Allah's Apostle went out to the Musalla (to offer the prayer) o 'Id-al-Adha or Al-Fitr prayer. Then he passed by the women and said, "O women! Give alms, as I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-fire were you (women)." They asked, "Why is it so, O Allah's Apostle ?" He replied, "You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion than you. A cautious sensible man could be led astray by some of you." The women asked, "O Allah's Apostle! What is deficient in our intelligence and religion?" He said, "Is not the evidence of two women equal to the witness of one man?" They replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency in her intelligence. Isn't it true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses?" The women replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency in her religion."
So the real truth is Dr Zakir Naik treats women worse, much worse than the Egyptian and Greeks who he says were disbelievers and jahiliyah.
