Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books All Solutions are with the Prophet’s Progeny Woman is wronged among us Woman, in the Arab and Muslim societies, has been wronged in general, since the day when she was buried alive until today. Muslims have not understood until now that woman has body and soul just like man; she has intellect, heart, feelings and instincts. Man cannot claim that he has honor and dignity, except that woman can claim this too.

Allah says in the Qur'an: O you men, surely We have created you of a male and a female, and made you tribes and families that you may know each other; surely the most honorable of you with Allah is the one among you most careful (of his duty); surely Allah is Knowing, Aware. Qur'an, 49:13 So their Lord accepted their prayer: That I will not waste the work of a worker among you, whether male or female, the one of you being from the other .

Qur'an, 3:195 Of course, we do not deny that Allah the Almighty has given man a degree over woman for leadership and constancy, but it has nothing to do with preference at all. Allah the Glorified says: They (women) have rights similar to those against them in a just manner, and the men are a degree above them, and Allah is Mighty, Wise .

Qur'an, 2:228 The wisdom of Allah has determined that man and woman are equal in rights and duties, but a degree has been given to man over woman in leadership, because Allah has given man more power and strength and made him responsible for guarding and protecting woman. When a woman feels fear and fright, she hurries to seek protection of her man or husband. Therefore, Allah has imposed fight and jihad on man and exempted woman from that.

In fact, Allah has imposed on man to fight and be martyred for the sake of woman. Allah the Almighty says: How should you not fight for the cause of Allah and of the feeble among men and of the women and the children... Qur'an, 4:75 This is what I have understood from the Holy Qur'an. It does not mean that Allah has preferred man to woman; certainly not! There may be a man better than one thousand women, and there may be a woman better than one thousand men!

We must take the Messenger of Allah (S) as our exemplar. He treated woman in a way that the history of humankind has never known better than. Despite the fact that some of his wives hurt him, he never hurt any one of them at all. He always ordered Muslims to be good to women.
