Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Mystery of Life Men and Women: A Serious Study Despite all the pain and oppression women have undergone throughout history, no mentally sound woman feels sorry about her gender. Women have not begged nature to change their creation, no matter how painful their social pressures have been; there is greatness hidden in women that no man can ever par.
Women devote their whole life and soul to men in order to obey the rules of creation and play their part in the rhythm of the universe. Women should have faith in what they are; they ought to never ignore their distinctive aspects or waste time comparing themselves with men. Men and women should take into consideration the significance of the family, for that is what determines the fate of a society. Men and women depend upon each other. Men rely on women, and vice versa.
They do not differ in humanity. Men are as human as women are. If men do not recognize women, they do not deserve to be called humans; likewise, we cannot regard women human unless they recognize men. Despite all that men and women have in common, they also differ in certain characteristics. This is when questions like these are posed: ● Can women bear dire straits as well as men can? ● Do women have genius, the power to discover or invent? ● Are women equal to men in pure intellect?
● Aren't men stronger than women when life comes to a dead-end? ● Don't men have more baseless pride than women? Before we can respond to such questions - which are posed by those influenced by specific character and immature emotions and the answers too are affected by social factors - we must realize the fact that both sexes are subject to a great deal of diversity in mental activity. Not all men are equal.
Can Imam Ali's humanitarian feelings and Hajaj ibn Yousef's hideous atrocities be compared? Are all men as intelligent as Avicenna was? Can we consider a woman who regards herself as part of her man's personality as equal to a woman who spends a life of hatred and disgust toward her husband? Therefore, we can point out two forms of differences between men and women.
1- Differences that are not related to men or women’s specific identity, but rather the differences existing among men as a whole, and among women as a whole.
