Gender roles in Islam

Almost entirely original research. The sources cited do not match the claims made. Any actual encyclopedic information on this subject can already be found on Women in Islam, which I would suggest this re-direct to. Irishpunktom\talk 11:55, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

Keep Admittedly as the guy who did most of the work I have an interest. But there is no original research. The sources do match the claims made. Much of the information here is not found on Women in Islam although a merger of parts is in the works. This call is totally premature given the work going on to fix the problems. A peer review would probably be the more sensible option. I urge people to read the article(s) for themselves. Lao Wai 12:51, 29 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, after reading the article's talk page I'm detecting a whiff of bad faith here, to be honest. The article DOES need work, admittedly, and I'd support deletion if it can't be improved jamesgibbon 12:53, 29 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Regarding your suggestion, I have been trying to work with this, I mean compare what the opening paragraph was like when I began work on it. Note too how Lao Wai constantly removes my request for citations, and constantly includes the allusion that all women of Medina were all Ansari (Helpers of Muhamad) - That is obviously untrue, but he keeps adding it anyway. [1], [2], [3]. Note also how The Source he uses to justify his assertion "Obviously this is a vision of Heaven that is more likely to appeal to men. Eternally virgin dark-eyed Houris are unlikely to appeal to many women" says nothing of the sort, in fact is says almost the opposite ("The life of women in Jannah will be as pleasant and happy as the life of men. Allah is not partial to any gender. He created both of them and He will take care of both of them according to their needs and desires. Let us all work to achieve the Jannah and then, in sha’ Allah, we will find there what will satisfy all of us fully.").

Anyway, besides that, anything of any merit is already dealt with in Women in Islam, a more stable and more Accurate and more NPOV piece.--Irishpunktom\talk 13:52, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
