What has Islam given to women?
Gul Riza Rahi Arariavi ✍🏻
Islam is a righteous religion, its foundation is based on justice and fairness,
This is the reason why the enemies of Islam raise objections every now and then
and say what has Islam given to women? I say that this is my question, what hasn't Islam given to women? Islam has given
all the rights that women need-
If we study history, we will know that the status that Islam has given to women has not been given by any religion. Every religion has committed oppression and injustice against women. Therefore, before the advent of Islam, women were considered impure, they were considered ominous, they were considered a cause of heartbreak, the sun of their life would set as soon as it rose, as soon as the news of their birth was heard, faces would turn black, happiness would fade, signs of anger would appear on their faces, they were considered a cause of humiliation and disgrace, they were expelled from their homes, women were deprived of their rights, women were deprived of property, rather they were also divided in inheritance, for their marriage, it was enough to just put a sheet on them, mountains of oppression and injustice were broken on them.
The advent of Islam,
But when Islam came and saw this condition of the Arabs, Islam put a sheet of mercy on women, took them out of the deep pit of humiliation and disgrace, freed them from oppression and exploitation, honored them with the wealth of honor and dignity,
Islam abolished all those innovations and customs that are contrary to the dignity of women, it gave them such respect in the society that makes them worthy of mercy in every respect, if she is a daughter, she is a source of blessing, if she is a sister, she is a cause of happiness, if she is a wife, she is a cause of peace of mind, if she is a mother, she is declared a cause of paradise, Islam gave woman the status of a princess, Islam gave women the right in inheritance, Islam gave the great blessing of marriage to protect the honor of women and to fulfill their desires, Islam gave hijab to protect women from the dirty eyes of strangers, Islam gave women such a position that in every way they are seen with respect and honor, Islam placed the responsibility of guardianship on men to protect the honor of women, and freed them from earning a living,
Today there are some people who talk about the rights of women and these are the same people who have deprived women of their rights and are inviting women towards impiety and say that Islam has deprived women of progress, Islam has imprisoned women, and they mislead them by saying all kinds of things to distance them from religion, but I say that Islam has dealt with women with justice and fairness, it has given them everything they need, Islam has left no stone unturned in giving women their rights, and Islam has commanded women to do things in which their well-being is hidden, which every Tom, Dick and Harry cannot understand, therefore, I say to the objectors of Islam that if a fair-minded person truly seeks the secrets and wisdom in the commandments of Islam, then he will know that whatever Islam has commanded women is for their own good, after that he himself will become a devotee of Islam
Therefore, the daughters of the Ummah should not be alienated from Islam by listening to the words of the enemies of Islam, they should not fall into any doubts, but should practice Islamic rituals well and adopt more and more Islamic rituals and tell that Islam has given us those rights that no one else has given, commendable are those daughters who compete with the enemies of Islam to preserve Islamic rituals
May Allah accept the sacrifices of these daughters, give them more courage, and grant all the Muslim Ummah the ability to live life with the rituals of Islam. Amen
