1-alright then since this is your position better not appeal to sharia because this isn't what sharia declares and mandates with regards to "economic freedoms", appeal to the western norms. in this case then this would turn into what i said previously on adopting western values, this is what the west wants from you, you're just giving it to them willingly x).
=> the moment you send your women out and normalize free mixing you surrendered their expected role (domestic one) to the state's institutions which are usually tied legally to international institutions and regulations which the west dominates, meaning your children aren't shaped by your and your wife's beliefs but by what the west thinks they should be, this is issue 1
=>issue 2 is when you send your women to work and mix you're creating an expectation from them through the motive you issued your male population for increased productivity, i'm talking about the psychological drive for career achievement and recognition from strangers for a job well done on the assembly line or the lab, this will crush you demographics, historically countries with large demographics are the ones that endup evolving into large powers, look at europe's population during the 19th century and compare it to that of africa or the middle east, these two areas were picked due to the proximity in geographics and technical level (with ofc the superiority of the west) to minimize other factors. its not THE main cause for it but its one of the necessary aspects.
So, I did my first major in Islamic theology. Not to brag about it, but to simply let you know this sensitive topic of Women's work life and economic activities falls within the area of my academic expertise.
I would only say that, I don't agree with your conclusions. But let's agree to disagree.
2-100% agreed they're puppets of world powers, but what you're proposing here is becoming a proactive puppet that follows the order without being told to, you'll be doing exactly what they want you to, in which way the stuff you're preaching here differ from what the west forces us to do and sanctions us if we dont ?
What i am proposing has nothing to do with becoming West's puppet or adapting contemporary western cultural. (That is your subjective interpretation)
And by the way, historically so called gulf theocracies were bigger puppets of the West then most Muslim countries.
3-you'd be surprised at the level of clarity the people had and the political movements (like the muslim brotherhood, especially pre sayyid qutb's execution) at their political realities, many of which were in mostly benevolent dictatorships like Algeria, they had every chance to adapt and every incentive to do so but the people will choose faith whenever given the chance, election results whenever fair elections were held always brought the islamist parties and the only reason hardliners didn't win is because they weren't allowed to participate from the first place after the algerian experience of 1991 when the jihadi party won by a plurality in the country's first elections, after over 160 years of secularism colonial and national.
Let's just say, I have different interpretations of 20th century political history of Middle East and Arab worlds then yours.
=>malaysia lacks the civilizational baggage our region has in order to pass, their modernization was done at the cost of completely disregarding the faith's political aspect, which isn't far off of what the west requires.
Not true.
