Discussion on Women's Rights in Islam

Are you adjourning the session to the lounge? Who are you to

decide who is Muslim and who is not? Our grandparents left us Islam.

Islam, Islam was not brought to us by the Justice and Development Party.

Islam. And listen, I know that in this chamber

I was sitting, I was sitting in that seat where Saïd Samad sat.

And the former head of government from the Justice and Development Party said, “A woman should stay

cooking and taking care of the house.”

And he did not know at the time,

he did not know at the time that there are widows whose husbands died,

and women are supposed to go out and provide. He did not know then, he did not know then

that there are divorced women whose husbands do not

pay child support for their children, and they have to roll up their

sleeves and go out to work. They did not know then that

you educated your daughters and wanted them to work, but you wanted Morocco’s daughters to stay

cooking and doing housework.
