There are two views on Eve's creation; the first is that Eve was formed from Adam's rib, and the second is that Adam's wife was created from the same essence.
And this verse is like another one that says: (And Allah made wives for you from among yourselves)1 or (Certainly a messenger came to you from among yourselves)."2 Then, Allama Majlisi says, "The creation from the same essence means from the same father and it does not nullify the presence of a mother, as a requirement ..." There is another possibility about the word (min; 3 from) that it may be a causative preposition.
In other words, it means that "He created wives for you ..."4 This second view is in accord with Imam Sadiq's view that woman has an independent creation just like man. ________________________ 1 Qur'an, 16:72. 2 Bihar Al-Anwar 11/222 & 223. 3 The Arabic word "min" that is mentioned in the verse. 4 Bihar al-Anwar, 11/222 & 223. Chapter Two : Woman's Perfection In the Qur'anic view, woman can reach perfection, just as man can.
The Holy Qur'an explicitly states that she can go to ascension via awareness and good deeds. Anytime there is reference in the Qur'anic verses about human perfection, women are pointed out along men: (Surely the men who submit and the women who submit, and the believing men and the believing women, and the obeying men and the obeying women, and the truthful men and the truthful women, and the patient men and the patient women, and the humble men and the humble women, and the almsgiving men and the almsgiving women, and the fasting men and the fasting women, and the men who guard their private parts and the women who guard, and the men who remember Allah much and the women who remember; Allah has prepared for them forgiveness and a mighty reward.
1 In this verse, submission, belief, truthfulness, patience, humbleness, fasting, chastity, and remembrance of Allah are mentioned in the same way for man and woman. Both of them can equally reach these heavenly positions. ________________________ 1 Qur'an, 33:35.
