As I understand it, the practicers of Islam, like all other major religions, have varying levels of orthodoxy. While taking the religion at face value is against women's rights, I feel it's important to judge people who practice the religion by their own interpretation of the religion. Similarly, one of my friends considers himself Catholic, but doesn't like the Catholic church's stance on issues such as contraception and homosexuality.
