Islamic Countries Marching Backwards.
While the world is striving for and attaining gender equality, Islamic countries are marching backwards.
Recently the Malaysian’s religious leader has passed laws that make it easier for men to practice polygamy.
A women's group, Sister in Islam, argued that Muslims had the right to an opinion and to be engaged in Islamic discourse. And Women's Affairs Minister Shahrizat Abdul Jalil, described the move as an insult to women.
