"Your Wives Are Like Farmland To You." [2:223]. by akinsmail51: 10:08pm On Feb 06
Advanced Farming! I am happy to be a farmer!

The Qur'an states:
نِسَاؤُكُمْ حَرْثٌ لَكُمْ
"Your wives are like farmland to you." [2:223].

Imam al-Qurtubi explained in his Tafsir:

ففرج المرأة كالأرض ، والنطفة كالبذر ، والولد كالنبات ،
"The private part of females is likened to the field, the sperm is likened to the seed, and the child is likened to the plant."
["Al-Jami li Ahkam al-Qur'an", 3/93].

A farmer approaches his field not just for the sake of pleasure, but to acquire produce.

A farmer takes good care of his farm and does not abandon or neglect it.

A farmer protects and guards his farmland.

A farmer does not plough into his farm when its dry, but only digs after its wet.

A farmer does not waste his seeds by planting them into barren places of his farm, but only plants them in the place that is fertile and capable of reproduction.

That verse is mischievously or ignorantly misinterpreted... But compare that to the Biblical injunction in Deuteronomy 22:28–30; where a supposedly merciful God commanded that a punishment for the raping of a young virgin damsel is for the rapist to pay her father just 50 shekels and marry her for life. The rapist was seen by God (?) as ruining someone else’s property, not ruining a young innocent girl’s life. Forcing a girl to marry her rapist (just imagine!) and have her remain in the sham marriage for life is anything but just, fair, equitable, or even logical. C'mon!
