The Purpose of Gender Boundaries
Islam recognises that attraction between men and women is natural.
Instead of pretending it doesn’t exist, Islam simply creates clear guidelines.
These guidelines help protect:
• relationships
• marriages
• family structures
Understanding the Wisdom Behind It
Many reverts say that once they understand the wisdom behind these rules, they begin to see them differently.
Instead of feeling restrictive, they feel protective.
Islam often focuses on preventing situations that could lead to problems later.
