Why do women choose to be Muslims?

I know no one here are really ridgey didgey Muslims. But I'm just curious how women rationalize choosing Islam as a guide to life??? If you were in their shoes, how would you justify it? 


WHat does Islam provide these women that other religion can't??? Islam is the fastest growing religion even in Western countries. THere must be something attractive about it for women. 


I'm not talking about women who are indoctrinated as kids and brainwashed but women who have the option of choice later in life. 


I just want to hear logical and rational reasons why YOU THINK these women choose to become the whole hog of burkas/hijabs wearing muslims??

btw when you say fastest growing, do you mean by birth or conversion?

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Same reason they choose to be apart of the exclusive Bretheran , the Cathlolic church and Mormons.


 


Not all people in all religions act the same way because there are moderates and fanatics.


 


My mother was told when she became Catholic that her drunk husband smashing ashtrays in her face was her fault because she knew what would set off his anger.


You know, rather than counsel him on on not drinking and dealing with anger issues.

I'm not just referring to the attires but the whole shabang of Islam as a whole. i.e choosing to be in a belief where women are treated inferior to men.

As to the first statement you make..How do you know whether anyone posting here is Muslim or not?


and as for WHY they are...that is because they choose to be...it is called free will...we all have it.


Why do people choose to do anything....usually because they want to, these days in case you haven't realised people do not have to give anyone, any reason for their life choices, as long as they are not illegal.
