What Muslims REALLY are like?

So many times I have come across certain attitudes towards Muslims. I really need to clear things up a bit. Because it's not always what it seems to be.

First of all people are always talking about how much wife's Muslim men have. Well my answer to You is: ONE. Usually there really is only one wife per each man. The Holy Quran teaches us Muslims to take not more than four wife's, BUT You need to treat all the same. And usually it is not possible. So yes, Quran almost forbids to take other wife's. 

Second of all people seem to have a problem of us women staying at home? WHAAAT?!! What's wrong with raising our children, and learning to cook? What's wrong with keeping the house clean? What's wrong of being interested of being a WIFE, like I mean A REEEEAAAL WIFE? And so that You know, our wonderful Muslim husbands WANTS to work, and will work as much as it's necessary to obtain a good life. So that the mothers of a muslim family CAN stay at home, and enjoy their family. 

Third is the beating and cheating part: Not going to happen if You are a good wife. It doesn't matter what You are, people sometimes cheat, it has nothing to do with the fact are You a Muslim or not. So don't put it on us! And the beating, The Quran says, that You can beat (like a little slap. ;)) Your wife is she disobeys You or some what. But really, who doesn't need a good slap once in a while? I know I do. But usually, this isn't what is happening in Muslim families. How is it possible, that finnish people kills their own children in a heart beat. And still You aren't talking, that christian people do this and this? It's just really unfair, I think. 

And the last part is the infamous and the much talked Hijab, meaning the head scarf and Muslim clothes. It's a CHOICE, like REALLY. I chose it myself, and my husband said to me I should not. Still I chose it, and didn't get the slapping. Some people, like christian's wearing the cross in their neck, are just simply proud of their religion. There is nothing to it, some Muslims have the urge to cover themselves entirely. They feel like it. Of course You can find, if You look, a Muslim who will say she is forced to it, but then it's the one who is forcing her who is doing wrong in these situations. But still, don't blame the whole community for it. Hijab is much like Islam in whole, The Way Of Life. I guarantee You, it really protects us Muslim women 100% and makes us unique. With that little peace of clothing, we are so proud Muslims, we want to show the whole world we are Muslims. Not because we want to annoy others that are not Muslims, it's just because we feel like it is making us complete. (Of course there are so many Muslims not wearing it, because in modern days, You are not obligated to wear it.)

Muslim families are much like a normal family, expect, that we try to obey Allah's rules, which in my opinion is very very good. It's has nothing to do with our religion, IF some Muslims decide not to follow the path right, there are so many cultural differences. 

A real Muslims should be calm, steady, hard-working, humble, noble, friendly, gives help if needed, beautiful persons and a Allah's worker. Doing this important good job, which IS NOT the one You see on the media!  Please give us a chance, and if You do not, then... 

DON'T. It's Your loss not ours.
