  TIL there are muslim sects that reject the hadiths altogether, and they’re growing in popularity. Apparently, the Quran itself is quite a bit less strict and misogynistic than the popular denominations that follow hadiths. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quranism

  Interesting how this parallels Christianity’s 16th century revolution, but also differs from it in key ways - many of the protestant denominations were more strict than catholicism and were often more misogynistic (e.g. most witch burnings were done by protestants, the Catholic church called belief in witchcraft superstition). Let’s hope the muslims won’t have a 30 year war about it …

    A war over religious beliefs? Get real, nobody would do that.
