Japan has a huge population, with little resources although the number 2 economy in world, because they have found a way to attract investment.
Saudi arabia has abundant resources, low population, it does not mater if the country is Islamic, secular, christian Jewish, buddist or Martian. The country will be rich and nothing can stop it from being rich as long as the resources are there, after the resources run out, they have to find another way to attract investment.
Dubia is much more developed and richer than Abu Dubia but has alot less oil than Abu Dubia. The difference is Dubia has found a way to attract trillions of Dalloars in investment because of its stratigic location and the trade that has been able to attract.
Look at Singapore, the cleanest city in the world, a prodominantly muslim city nation. No resources but it has been able to compete with the best of other asian economies not because it is predominantly muslim but because of it stratigic location and its ability to attract investment.
About Women Rights. The West is capitalistic. In a capitalistic society, everything is about money. Sex sells so naturally women are nothing more than sexual objects. Women that are traficked for sex are mostly traficked to the west because of the wealth that can be aquired. They can make more money there than lets say eastern europe or asia latin america, middle east. The Media bombards the population with sex because it sells. People think of nothing but sex in a capitalistic society. Rape and molestation is common because of the ease of access and the constant bombardment of sex images from the media because that is what sells.
Islam teaches us to protect women from this abuse that happens. It does not say lock them in their rooms and it also doesnt say have them jog in shorts like Baygham is saying. There is a middle ground.
