When is Pornography a sign of women's progress?
Western society may be divided over whether to define pornography as empowering and a true marker of female sexual expression and liberation, or as an abomination, posturing to serve male lust, the ultimate in a perverse objectification. The reality however is that due to the billion dollar entertainment and advertising industries, as well as the massive beauty and fashion industries, the woman has been objectified to a completely unrealistic, narrow, superficial image; one of a sexual commodity who’s worth is economically quantifiable.

Such exploitation is inevitable under the Capitalist ideology, which by default will always prioritize profit making regardless of the consequences.

Liberalism and the free market have enabled the view and worth of women to become a deformed concept, where soaring rape statistics bare witness to a near post apocalyptic nightmare. Feminist Robin Morgan said, “Pornography is the theory, rape is the practice”. In the US a woman is raped every minute and the Times of India reported NCRB records of ninety-three rapes every day, and an increase of nine thousand rapes between 2013 and 2014. Considering unreported incidents, the actual numbers are estimated to be at least double.
It is a fact that true empowerment of women can only be guaranteed through the holistic implementation of Islam via the Khilafah system where the predominant view will be the societal view of women; one enshrined and shaped only by the ahkaam Sharia, which fully supports and encourages the need and role of women in education, business and work, as well as homemakers, who literally stabilize the community from inside out, via their roles as mothers, teachers, and through support networks they can influence. The value of women will be based upon her intellect and character, as oppose to her physical appearance. Our beloved Rasool Allah (saw) said, “The world and all things in it are precious, and the most precious thing in the world is a virtuous woman.” (Muslim). This high status is further ensured by removing the sexual element from society and restricting it to the personal and private life via the ahkaam of hijab, segregation of the sexes and the prohibition of taking work or any role which sexually exploits the woman such as advertising and pornography.
