Among the many topics of interest to non-Muslims, the situation of Muslim women and the issue of their rights - or rather, the apparent lack of them seems to be more important. The image of Muslim women portrayed by the media, usually highlighting the oppression mkisterio appears to contribute to this negative perception.
The main reason for this is that people often do not distinguish between culture and religion - two things that are completely different. In fact, Islam condemns oppression of any kind, either for a woman or humankind in general.
The Quran is the sacred book of Muslims live. This book was revealed 1400 years ago a man named Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, which later became the prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. Fourteen centuries have passed and this book has not changed since then, not a letter has been altered.
Chapter 33, entitled Surah Al-Ahzaab (Clans), verse 59, Allah Almighty and Exalted, says (what means): "O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and women of the believers to draw with (part of) their clothes. It is more convenient for them to be known (as free and respectable women) and not molested. And Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful. " [Quran 33:59] This verse shows that Islam requires the use of Hijab. The Hijab is the word used to indicate something that covers not only the headscarves (as some may think) but also wearing loose clothing and are not too bright.
Sometimes people see covered Muslim women and think of it as a form of oppression. This is wrong, the Muslim woman is not oppressed, in fact, she is released. This is because it is no longer valued for something material, as her beauty or body shape. She compels others to judge her for her intelligence, kindness, honesty and personality. Therefore, people judge by what she really is.
When Muslim women cover their hair and wear loose clothing, are obeying his Lord has commanded to be modest, not cultural or social mores. In fact, Christian nuns cover their hair for modesty, but nobody believes them down. Following the order of Allah, Muslim women are doing the same thing.
The lives of those who responded to the Quran have changed drastically. Had a tremendous impact on many people, especially women, as this was the first time that the souls of men and women were declared equal - to the same obligations and the same rewards.
was Islam, which for the first time in history, gave women economic independence. The money they bring to marriage is theirs as well as the money they earn. In Islam, women are allowed to choose their own husbands and in extreme cases, divorce. A woman has the right to education, contrary to what the modern world might think. The responsibility lies with the person in charge of their upbringing.
Islam is a religion that holds women in high esteem. Long ago, when baby boys were born, caused a great joy to the family. The birth of a child was received with less joy and much less enthusiasm. Sometimes, girls were hated so much they were buried alive. Islam has always been against this irrational discrimination against girls and female infanticide.
The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Seeking knowledge is obligatory for all Muslims (men and women)." Men and women have the capacity for learning and understanding. Since it is also their duty to promote good behavior and condemn bad behavior in all spheres of life, Muslim women must acquire the appropriate education to perform this task in accordance with their own natural talents and interests.
While maintaining their homes, supporting her husband and giving birth, raising and teaching children are among the first roles and highly recognized for a woman, if you have knowledge required to work outside the home for the good of the community, you can. However, this is only permitted provided that the obligations to their families met, and provided it complies with the Islamic code of dress and behavior, not mixing with men in the place of work.
Islam recognizes and fosters the natural differences between men and women despite their equality. Some types of work are more suitable for men and another for women. This differentiation in no way diminishes the effort or benefit of one sex over the other. God will reward both genders equally for the value of his work, though not necessarily in the same sphere of activity.
The two great roles women play in life are that of a wife and mother. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, once told a group of companions
As for motherhood, the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Heaven lies under the feet of mothers." This implies that the success of a society can be traced to mothers has grown. The first and greatest influence on a person comes from a sense of security, affection and training received from the mother. Therefore, a woman having children must be educated and aware to be a working mother.
A man came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and asked: "Who among my kinfolk is worthy of my good company" The Prophet peace and blessings be upon him, replied: "Your mother" three times before saying: "Your father." This indicates the impact that a mother has on a person's life. So women are highly honored in this great religion.
Islam is a religion that treats women well. A Muslim woman was given a role, duties and rights 1400 years ago that most women do not enjoy even today in the West. These rights are from God and are designed to maintain a balance in society, what may seem unjust or missing in one place is compensated for or explained elsewhere.
"The best among you are those who are best to their wives." This shows that Islam encouraged to treat their wives well. It should show love, respect and care. To foster the love and security that comes with marriage, Muslim wives have various rights. The first women's rights is to receive the dowry, a gift from the husband, who is part of the marriage contract and is required for the legality of marriage.
The second right of a wife is maintenance. Despite all the wealth you may have, her husband has an obligation to provide food, shelter and clothing. He is not required, however, to spend beyond his capability and his wife is not entitled to make unreasonable demands
