Why is a woman’s testimony only worth 1/2 of a man’s? What about genital mutilation? Or special rules for women because they aren’t “intellectually equal” to men?

Never said anything about Afghanistan, these are issues across all of Islamic law and the role women play in the system.

“Women are legally disadvantaged by Islamic law in several domains of life. Particularly, women are disadvantaged in matters of sexual, domestic, legal, financial, sartorial, and physical autonomy. According to Islamic legal theory, while not all of Islamic law necessarily has a perceptibly rational basis, legal restrictions on women may be due to their supposed intellectual deficiency, which was pronounced by Muhammad according to Sahih Bukhari.”
