Hi...I am originally from Ukraine and was brought up as a Russian Orthodox..but el hamdullillah I reverted to Islam. This religion is usually misunderstood and is said to be unfair to women...but if you compare the Koraan with the Bible and the New Testament you will see that women have even more rights in Islam than they do in Christianity. I read all of them and based on the knowledge I gained I chose the best way of life for me-Islam. I am a girl and proud to be muslim.

Mirabella,

I think I understand you.

I wonder if you can tell me about Jesus from the Muslim persective. I imagine he holds some meaning to you.

It is not my main question and I appreciate your answer - in fact, it is just a point of interest that occurs to me due my lack of other knowledge (does that make sense?)

Anyway, you have an interesting point of view. (To me me life is but, a point of view). It is always personal - and eminating from the self - from each individual.

I think women get the bad end of the stick in every religion and it is a cultural thing - what was appropriate and fair in the past is no longer so.,

That is what I believe...
