My mum became very devout and married at 16. Since then, the demands of being the perfect Muslim woman has gradually wittled away at her confidence, her individuality & her human dignity. Not only does Allah demand complete submission to Him, he demands a woman to submit to men.

She started breaking during her engagement, crying in front of family and strangers in bewilderment at the degrading treatment she recieved. But she knew that she was expected to value my dad's piety above all else. If he obeyed Allah, then he had to be good to her right?

And wouldn't a member of the Muslim Brotherhood know what Allah wanted from him? He did indeed. He knew that he was right to demand the utmost respect, constant attention, pleasure & modesty from her. He knew Allah encouraged men to show protective jealously.
