Description
Maryams.Net is an individual initiative springing from the philosophy that the Qur'an's underlying egalitarian message is one of equality between men and women and that Muslims must draw inspiration from the Qur'an as an organic whole and apply fresh ijtihad to today's problems so that this fundamental principle of equality, first envisioned by the Prophet of Islam (saw), is achieved.
In pursuit of this essential Islamic spirit of equality Maryams.Net is committed to the propositions outlined by Mahnaz Afkhami in "Claiming Our Rights":
1. As the written word of God, the Qur'an is eternal, infinite, mystical and is understood in its eternal and infinite scope by the Prophet only. All other mortals understand it according to their human gifts. The religious experience, i.e. the experience of the Word of God, therefore, is by definition a personal experience, whereas obeying the religious law, the Shari'a, is obedience to manmade law.
