Woman in Islam
In the first instance, people may think that a
Muslim woman is a victim of man, and society. People think her
abilities and powers are limited. In addition to that, people think
that she is forbidden from practicing her human rights. One can find
such examples, but these examples are abnormalities, and are not
related to Islam, and its teachings. Islam valued the woman, and
protected her from being a commodity that could be sold and bought, as
the western woman.
Islam did not prevent woman from
practicing any kind of jobs. However, Allah (SWT) equate between woman
and man in all Qur’anic verses (Ayat) regarding worshipping, and
treatments, with some limitations between both in dealing with each
other, because only Allah –who creates everything - knows how to
protect human values.
Regarding the Islamic clothing of
woman, which is criticized by westerns, it protects her freedom,
without being hurt by others either spiritually or physically. Probably
westerns have realized how they changed the woman’s body into a
commodity that can be sold or bought, or used for advertisement with no
limits and boundaries. Changing the woman in a commodity caused the
destruction of societies, lost of siblings, and families, and raising
the rates of harmful diseases, and all that is just due to the absence
of the organized rules for people’s lives in societies that can’t be
found
only in a truthful religion as Islam.
Islam
also ordered the relationship between man and woman regarding marriage
and protects all rights of both parties. Woman in Islam is not
responsible for any expenditure of money on her family, even if she is
working she has the complete freedom in spending her own money the way
she likes “ of course in legitimate ways” that’s because the man in
Islam is the one responsible for expenditure of money on his family and
wife. This is the reason why the man inherits more because he has to
spend the money on his whole family.
Allah (SWT) has
ordered man to respect woman, and treat her very well, whether she is
his wife, or daughter, hitting (for any/no reason) is not allowed.
There are conditions for hitting, and the messenger Muhammad (SAWS)
described hitting by using the SEWAK (Islamic tooth brush, it is a very
small woody stick, that is not hurting at all used just as a reminder).
How the West treats women proves how Islam on the other hand protects
them.
The mother in Islam has a very valued position,
nobody has it at all. “The paradise is under her feet”, due to how she
suffers during pregnancy, delivering, upbringing, and being concerned
about every detail that makes her family being happy. Her children must
respect her, and work hard to please her. They have to do this more and
more when she gets old, and reward her for all the things she did to
them and not throwing her in elderly institutions without even asking
about her, as happens in the western societies.
All
mentioned make the Islamic family very related, and full of love, as
much as every single member of it works according to the Islamic rules.
Thus, love, and tenderness will be among the members of the same
family. Not only that, love goes far beyond that to relate all Muslims
together as brothers and sisters, so the society will be strong, very
well connected because of obeying Allah, and following the Prophet’s
path, and then they will reach the top happiness in this life and in
the life after
