So I've got a question.

You say Islam does not oppress women, so are there things that they get to do exclusively? Are there things that men are not allowed to do or have to do as a responsibility?

“And whoever does righteous good deeds, male or female, and is a true believer in the Oneness of God, such will enter paradise; and not the least injustice, even to the size of a speck on the back of a date stone, will be done to them.” (Quran 4:124)

“O you who believe! You are forbidden to inherit women against their will, and you should not treat them with harshness, that you may take away part of the bridal money you have given them. And live with them honourably. If you dislike them, it may be that you dislike a thing and God brings a great deal of good through it.” (Quran 4:19)

Prophet Muhammad, may the mercy and blessings of God be upon him, said, “None but a noble man treats women in an honourable manner. And none but an ignoble treats women disgracefully."

Can you debunk some common myths about Islam? Such as pretty much anything involving ISIS or what the media says the religion about vs what the religion is really about?

Qur'an says: Women may forget, therefore they should be given helpers in testimony.

A UTD^Force to be reckoned with wrote:

By accepting two women's testimonies are equal to that of one man, and thus not burdening the woman with the responsibility as much as that of the man in the matter of witnessing, Islam does not harm her right, on the contrary, protects it and prevents her from sinning. This is because bearing witness is a tough duty that brings about great responsibilities.

Islam protects woman from great sins and prevents her from committing such a sin as wrongful testimony, by way of deception by some weaknesses of hers through acting emotionally. Islam has taken precautions against it by appointing a helping woman beside her. Just for this reason, in some testimonial matters, two women replace one man

UTD^Force, what's your take on the difference between Sunni and Shia Islam? There seems to be a lot of bad blood between the two groups, at least right now with the war against Islamic State in Syria and Iraq and the grand rivalry between Saudi Arabia and Iran.

Huh, how interesting! So you HAVE to fast in order to follow the Qur'an right? For those who can't fast wouldn't they be against/violate their religion? If that makes sense....
