[quote]dear usmani790,

Of the first hadith you quoted, I think Abu-Bakra is one the persons in the isnads and he was punished by Omer for slandering another man. According to the holy Quran we must reject the testimony of any man guilty of slandering when there are not 4 witnesses to zina. Please verify this, and if true, then the hadith is in doubt.

As for your statement quoted below:

[quote]And it is abundantly clear that throughout his life time neither did he, nor his companions pray behind a woman in private or public.[/quote]

junaid's article contradicts your statement. Either he is wrong, or you are wrong.

Women need not take the place of men and need not mimic what men do for the sake nothing. There are many aspects of Arab pagan and local cultures that have crept into Islam. Among such things are honor killings, underage child marriages, preventing women from contributing to society, from education, from jobs, etc. We need to distinguish what is Shariah and what is pagan culture.

Today we see women can do everything that men do, they are only limited in their physical capacity when they are in menses, in labor, pregnant, nursing, or menopause. Besides these times, there is nothing stopping them except pagan customs imposed on them in the name of religion by fundamentalists. We need to weed out these pagan things from Islam by understanding what is Shariah. Otherwise we will continue to be left behind as we are now.[/quote]
