Write out a fatwa
against imams and mullahs
who suppress women
Let it voice "no more
suffocation of women
free our better half"
Let the fatwa say
"the learned must preach and teach
the illiterate
All are born even
Men and women equal rights
no more violence
She is your heart and
it is she who gives you life
you can not be more
Entomb your demons
she is free and she is pure
men hold back your fear"
Let this edict grant
freedom to poetesses
may they rule freely
Prompt: "….honoring the (veiled) Saudi Arabian Poetess Hissa Hillal who courageously broached the subject of anti-women extremist forces….".
Don't let anyone make the mistake of thinking that this is limited to certain imams and mullahs and/or illiterates, this problem exists -to a greater or lesser extent- within all religious movements and all parts of every -male dominated- society, be it eastern or western.
