We also know that Muslim countries majority Muslim population or constitutionally Muslim harbour extremely unegalitatian views on women ' s issues . There ' s a lot to dig into your comment , Alles Fr Seine Volk , but this is enough to start that ' s false . It ' s an interesting statistical illusion when studies include enough culturally regressive Christianmajority countries mostly Eastern European and a broadenough spectrum of Muslimmajority countries which mostly means including southeast Asia there ' s no correlation between Islam and regressive biases against women . There is a strong cultural bias , but like I hinted at , the specific Abrahamic variation isn ' t relevant the surrounding culture is . People who get all het up against Islam on behalf of women are barking up the wrong tree . Wives , obey your husband is not a quote from the Quran .
