another barrel of s. trying on gaza palestinian minutes and group hamas continue to fire rockets at israeli cities more than 200 people have been killed in over a week of violence most of them palestinians. israeli air strikes hit gaza early on tuesday morning. it's the 8th stay of fighting between israel and hamas militants. in gaza the casualties are mounting many of the civilians. causes hospitals already struggling with the $1000.00 pandemic a stretch to them that. this small girl is among the injured. and this boy has lost several members of his family. the bombardments have destroyed hundreds and displaced tens of thousands of people the humanitarian
7:03 am
situation is deteriorating the power supply across gaza has been reduced to 6 to 8 hours per day on average the number of fetal lives not functioning that it turns disrupts the provision of health care you know the basic services water hygiene and sanitation. israel says it's targeting senior hamas militants the military released this 1st stage which it says shows as strikes on 5 houses belonging to hamas commandos. she directive is to continue to strike terror targets the i.d.f. is doing well today it has eliminated another senior islamic jihad commando we have hit a hamas naval unit and we continue to strike it underground infrastructure the hamas metro and of the targets we will continue to act as necessary to restore peace and security to all residents of israel. the escalation in violence began after clashes between israeli police and protesters over the plunder fiction of palestinian
7:04 am
families in east jerusalem. since then hamas has kept up a steady stream of rockets some of the make it past israel's iron dome defense system like here in ashdod where a residential building was damaged and several people were injured. there is little sign of the violence slowing. as global calls mind for an end to the bloodshed the white house says president biden told netanyahu in a phone call that he supported a cease fire but he stopped short of calling for one it's a ceasefire that these families are waiting for sheltering in a u.n. school in gaza waiting for the bombs to stop. all of a solid story with me from washington d.c. so all of a tell us more about what was said in that phone call between biden and netanyahu. and you really need to take a closer look and read between the lines because president biden here reiterated
7:05 am
his support for israel's right to defend itself so the position of the united states is that how mouse is a terrorist organization and also the wide tells to not publicly call for a cease fire instead for a deescalation so president biden supports a cease fire but he doesn't call for one and there is certainly a fine difference in the kind of diplomatic language that was used there and let's put together lee interesting now is that the wide tell us just a few days ago informed the u.s. congress about a $735000000.00 u.s. dollars weapon weapons deal with israel so the u.s. selling arms to israel there is a deadline for congress to object to this deal that is running out just at the end of this week nothing has happened so far so certainly a call for a cease fire or even a certain pressure on it on yahoo would look differently and also the united states is blocking the u.n.
7:06 am
security council from taking any action. that is right this weekend the security council got together again that meeting ended with no agreement the u.s. blocked a joint statement calling for is for an immediate cease fire and that has happened for the 3rd time now reportedly the resolutions that have been prepared before hand condemned israel's military response so 200 people have been killed so far in gaza as you have as you mentioned earlier as well the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. said the u.s. was working tirelessly through diplomatic channels to stop the fighting but of course the u.s. position again israel has the right to defend itself that can be considered a one sided stance but it seems also the u.s. is really trying hard to avoid making israel looking like the culprit in this conflict through all of it there is also pressure on joe biden to be doing more to masticate we're seeing some divisions even within the democratic party. and that's
7:07 am
right and there are there's a lot of criticism he's receiving right now from within his own party as well liberal democrats for instance accusing joe biden of whitewashing israeli airstrikes on the good morning human rights of not responding to israel's planned evictions of palestinian families in east jerusalem and that is how the violence in this erupted and started what we are seeing now can perhaps be considered as a really slow 1st step in moving away from that position because we know that president biden needs his party in closed ranks really that's highly critical for him to overcome the division of the country that he has made a big goal of his presidency and he certainly can't afford a rift in his own democratic party right that is one of the sonnets in washington d.c. thank you very much for that update. now around 5000 migrants have entered spain's

this in my own emancipation in islam it's that the situation still has been hasn't improved islam. i did it wasn't the role of the woman in islam whether she can be emancipated within islam is one of the big questions of our time because we talk a lot about islam around the world not just in germany or europe is emancipation possible melissa i'd say yes but it's incredibly dependent on who interprets the religion and what mindset she has leaked you guys. tunisia since the 2011 revolution the country on the mediterranean coast has been in a state of upheaval. the islamic scholar up them a ship sharply was a member of the commission for individual liberties and equal rights its goal was to find solutions to achieve more rights for women.
7:24 am
to. islam cannot stand in the way of the emancipation of women need of the. christianity or judaism these are but i say it can't in principle was because the position of women was always explicitly inferior in the monotheistic religious traditions they. explain all 3 religions. so we have to make a distinction for between the religion itself. and the tradition that stems from the religion of. the city. in paris the cmon via prizes being awarded it's named after the health minister who fought for abortion rights in france in 1975. 1 of the nominees

7:34 am
very early on and they felt so out was with me my father thought that academic success was very important. for you always made sure that my educational development was taken as seriously as my brothers or meant it because the more friends. the dice oh heck no academy of sciences is located on the gulf of tunis 5 fake volumes of books originated here titled the quranic text and its variants up them as she char favored for years on the contextualization of the qur'an jewish and christian sources were analyzed including aramaic and syrian literature the latest edition sheds new light on the familiar text only. qur'an it sounds as revelation wasn't taxed sit next. to a fixed written text. so the document we have today this
7:35 am
revelation soon is merely the work of. it isn't the revelation itself and. the work we do helps muslims and also nor muslims to do away with the literal reading of the text . lift you. to the text. it's an approach that usually leads to greater interest in the spirit of the text. rather than in the literal meaning to castle that. nearly all of the qur'an 114 suras contain a lot of ambiguity. so we ask question how do we know what we know how do we know if this interpretation is actually an interpretation of what god had in mind how do we know if this is
7:36 am
a source of authority why this male scholars through the centuries had more authority than a woman today living in one context were understand the stakes for her own experience from a woman's perspective tunisia is the most liberal muslim country in the region even so reforms are needed islamic scholar of her youssef has written extensively on issues like inheritance law polygamy and homosexuality as they relate to the qur'an use of compares the interpretations of male scholars from the middle ages to those of today and critiques their positions because of past she's been threatened by islamists left. alone. to a lot of but i don't know. that it is a thought that in. the well out of the. people here you. know
7:37 am
. yeah. so the a lot a lot. so. but but $24.00 the light verse $35.00 plus this 1st goes very much to my heart because it addresses god as light. evoke good do i see this light as the spark of consciousness that encompasses everything people animals and things to. it confirms that god is everything and that there is only one day it can exist. new. no one knows the interpretation blackguardly the problem isn't ambiguity on the contrary i think these ambiguous readings are an asset and they allow the text to open up the public school more the problem comes when someone thinks ok this is the meaning. this is the truth and i'm going
7:38 am
to impose it on others the issue of a lump or as it was called or you really you can't just settle for what other people say you can listen to them ask questions if you read but in fact you should and sometimes you must but above all you have to take responsibility for your own interpretation. christianity and islam all 3 religions refer to a common patriarch favor. i believe that there are women who are trying to reconcile their faith with. their own human dignity however they can but personally i believe feminism is either secular or it's not especially for talking about the monarch taste
7:39 am
religion's they're very patriarchal all 3 of them i mean women is just so great that islamic feminists have turned arguments for the equality of man and woman in the qur'an story of creation in syria for verse one god didn't create the woman from the river of the man he created and original so not saying where he'd attain which is a feminine term in arabic and took muslims from the injustices of their time to the justice of their time it gave women many important right in the power trio post culture of 7th century arabia but at that time the notion of justice didn't include the idea of equality between man and woman because gender equality is a modern concept. although be learning in a shape or not why do. the psni lair here rush marry her while he has. in their own zeal her been

a loyal or is easy larry of even the one who are really old bishan eagle aoa be the. larry larry who and elaine he mostly. of. us i chose this series of half beginning but because i love forgiveness a similar problem god created in my sleep even before he was asked for forgiveness is the one puddle. delap doesn't spend much time in france anymore she left the country because of rising islamophobia and now lives in london. she too sees islam as a source of empowerment for women it's said that mohammed gave dignity back to disenfranchised women. in tree islamic society in arabia women had the same status as animals or possessions they didn't have the
7:41 am
right to inherit as they were the inheritance girls were killed at birth then islam came along and said no women must also have the right to inherit that change in women status back then was revolutionary women with no rights who could be killed given away became people with the right to inherit property. put simply sirrah for verse 11 states that a woman should inherit about half of what a man gets. the reason for the un equal treatment is that women didn't usually bear responsibility for providing for their family. so it was taken for granted that men should be allocated the larger share of an inheritance. so this is. the verse says that half the share of inheritance is the guaranteed
7:42 am
minimum for women but there's nothing wrong with giving more than that to the priests. these days women work they participate in family life i split expenses with my husband 50 they also make more money as a source and i pay my taxes like a man simple like any citizen. is it ethically justifiable through religion that i only get half. as much as my parents' inheritance. when the qur'an doesn't oppose the quality in that situation still for spoke as if they get to know me that was. the qur'an and laus meant to have up to 4 wives critics of islam claim this isn't a such any an instrument of male domination. that.
7:43 am
there are 3 verses that talk about i think you mean the question is what a new set in this what are titled women and you look at the 1st verse it gives you the 1st step solution you can marry $1.00 to $4.00 wives so you can't now marry $10.15 it is restricted then you have a 2nd verse that comes and says you have to treat all of these wives equally so you can't just it's not just a maximum you also have to keep in mind justice and equality and then you have a 3rd verse that comes and these folk verse went to versailles it's that actually even if you want to be equal god knows that you can't be male interpreters or patricks will look at this verse and say the qur'an gave me the right to marry 4 wives but they don't look at the 2 order verses do you treat them equally even if you claim that you do god sais that you can't. the
7:44 am
the head scarf for women is one of his limbs most controversial requirements especially in the west that what is the qur'an actually say. and can feminists wear headscarves. one of those takes the fancy way here in a french context in an environment that is vehemently opposed to the headscarf i am a rebel a militant feminist it would look i don't want anyone to tell me whether i can wear a headscarf or not. i'm lucky enough not to be pressured by anyone in my family. my mother was against me wearing one in senegal but i told her that i hadn't asked for her opinion and you. should want i want to wear it one day and not the next i don't care what people think or feel. so in the name of gender equality we are now denying muslim woman to control their own bodies to appear in the public space we are punishing them by excluding them from the schools and now there are people who
7:45 am
talk about banning the double so in university we are excluding them from workplaces we are excluding them from nature activities in the minds of right wing movement and french radicals a clear is being became an obsession. the vast most often used to prescribe the so-called islamic can't keep the 2 separate. good is a vast that simply says to leave the covering can be used by the female there are at least 2 or 3 in there for. that has nothing to do with a requirement to cover their hand. or do so let it. slide it in them. in the clubs because. inside them and i look at
7:46 am
a book and. so the law allows. this is. from the koran actually this is the 1st suitor that prophet mohammed has received and here god is ordering him to read and this shows the importance of reading and how people should learn more every time to become better people in her batik in the omani capital muskat. e.c. designs what she calls modest fashion that is fashion that embodies islamic values around the world muslim women spend billions on clothing and accessories every year already she is a mother of 3 a successful fashion designer and a devout muslim most of her employees are men islam has always respected women and always treated the woman the right way so i think where i feel so lucky being
7:47 am
a muslim because islam gave me all my rights it's not about being a male or a female it's about if you can earn it if you can work hard to get it. you can say that i'm a super woman and i can do everything on my own i don't believe that this can happen like for me to have things run properly for me to be a successful interpreter i need the support of my husband because being a mom is very important but there are some days where i'm so busy like today i have a long day of appointments and i woke up this morning my daughter was sick so my husband decided that he will take the day off just making sure that someone is taking care of my daughter and that i can get my important things done.
7:48 am
this is going to be my autumn winter collection next year and basically it's inspired by. the patterns of traditional armani dresses like that are by is something that you see everyone wearing now but it's actually not part of our tradition it's something that came in later on and became so trendy that everyone started wearing it but when you go back to traditional dresses then they're so colorful so full of patterns and completely different than i buy it. since the 970 s. saudi arabia and other oil producing states have gained influence in the islamic world guest workers took their experiences back to other muslim nations. meanwhile rich ruling elites systematically invested in media as well as financing
7:49 am
schools and mosques all this led to the exportation of a highly conservative interpretation of islam. the iranian people who overthrew the shah in 1979 partly due to an anti capitalist movement that wanted to end the political and economic influence of the united states. was left wing liberals and communists including many women played a major role they couldn't foresee how they situation would deteriorate under the islamic regime with its rigid legal system controlled by shiite religious scholars . a sequel russia here said the pasha should really really it's not the koran shari'a
7:50 am
is a muslim law is a collection of regulations that were written let's say 2 centuries after the revelation that give us your the. defensible thing about it is the position of women suki like the stoning of women who commit adultery loose the truth there's no such thing in the text of the koran there shortly from a group they're sick of all sentencing someone to death for turning away from their religion to see lepers this is that doesn't exist in those terms in the text of the koran zuma sit in place clips your kids so today it's very important to explain to people who want to practice islam that there are differences between quranic text and shari'a and if you have also heard a textbook i need it lash out here. perhaps the most controversial passage in the qur'an is sora for 1st 34 does it really call
