Islam had been quite progressive towards women
Food for thought in Radha’s blog post linked below. From what I’ve seen in Islamic countries I’m not sure I’d say that Islam has become very progessive. And usually the men are saying it is progressive, we don’t (except of course for Benazir Bhutto) hear from the women. For example, where are the mosques for women? In Oman at the Grand Mosque (shown in the photo above) with space or 6000 men there is space for 750 women behind a screen. The screen is so that the men can’t see them but they can see the person who is leading the prayer.
