<blockquote>"No one is going to give you the education you need to overthrow them. Nobody is going to teach you your true history, teach you your true heroes, if they know that that knowledge will help set you free." - Asata Shakur</blockquote>That's why we need to get our Islamic education from alternative, female-led sources - not the same patriarchal garbage that our oppressors have used to control us for centuries.If this sounds radical, that's because it is. And it's also the ONLY way we will ever take our power back.If we keep going to traditional Islamic male scholars to find out 'what Islam really says about women' etc, then we will just&nbsp; keep getting the same sexist answers, the same tired justifications and the same twisted logic that keeps us small, silent, and stuck.We’ll keep being told that justice IS being treated unequally. That being a good Muslim woman means accepting poor treatment in the name of duty. That questioning is rebellion, and rebellion is a sin.But we need to rebel!! Just like we need to rise up against ALL systems of oppression (capitalism, neo-imperialism, racism, settler colonialism...all the isms) we ALSO need to stand up to gender injustice.It’s time to seek knowledge that sets us free — not keeps us in our place.You ready to rebel with me? Then join the Rising Sisterhood, where we’re not here to be ‘good girls’ and do as we're told.We’re here to wake up, turn shit upside down and take our MF power back. The power that was always our, but that got taken away by centuries of patriarchal interpretations of Islam.It’s time for women to take back what is their absolute divine birthright.Faith AND Freedom, not one or the other. Both. Every time.

No one is going to give you the education you need to overthrow them.
