COLLEGE WOMEN WHAT SAY YOU? Chicago-Area Imam Jamal Said: Men Are Perfect And Their Brains Are Bigger Than Women's; Treating Your Wife As An Equal Is Wrong; Women Cannot Choose Who To Marry – They Need A Male Guardian, Even If He's A Lot Younger Than Them In a November 7, 2025 lecture at the Mosque Foundation in Bridgeview, Illinois, its principal imam and director, Jamal Said, stated that men are perfect, while women are governed by emotions and hormones. He said that it is wrong for a man to treat his wife as an equal and that women who demand equality with men are mistaken. Imam Said further explained that women cannot make their own decisions regarding marriage and must have a male guardian who can marry them off to a suitor. He advised Muslim women not to question Allah's decree by asking why their 18-year-old brother can be their guardian while they are 30 years old and hold a PhD. Jamal Said: "Generally speaking, men are more mentally complete. The Prophet Muhammad said... Scientists today say – and there are doctors present and they can weigh in – that women's brains are smaller than those of men. Therefore, her obligations are not the same as those of men. One needs to take into account women's emotions, unlike with men. https://www.memri.org/tv/chicago-imam-jamal-said-women-not-equal-guardian-marriage
