Woman rights on Islam:
The women's Crown
Woman may be sister, wife, or daughter and she is really greater than described as a half of society.
Indeed, she is so, but moreover she is the responsible in how to perfect her twin counterpart partnership the man. For this reason the woman must be regarded as Allah The Great and Almighty recommended us about her.
When we talk about woman values according to Islamic consideration we must depend on the virtue of Koran and Hadith on which there is many difference on what had come on the book of Allah and on the Sunna of his Prophet from one hand and what is applicable on some Islamic societies of prejudice practicing against woman on the other hand . This some prejudice practicing against woman on Islamic society, which is, always out of the Islamic laws, make perplexes to the Islam religion and bring reasons to the other than Islamic- societies to criticize Islam and wage their tongues on crusade campaign against Islam.
Islam gratefully had proceeded on the rights of woman when she was as insignificant stuff exposures to be sold or bought at the period before Islam advent.
Prophet Muhammad God's blessing and peace upon him had welcomed and supported the rights of woman whether the women is sister or wife .etc… for this reason we might follow our prophet's approach which is knowable for each one that man rights on Islam are not too widely differ from woman rights, but only on such considerations that are compatible with the environment which God's creation makes distinctions between man and woman in order to preserve the shyness of the woman not more.
Before we initiate our course on talking about the greatness position of woman in Islam and her rights and her obligations, we need to speak out about the tumbles and the retrogressions of societies at the last century which occur obviously and virtually when they neglect the woman's rights and didn't treat her according to the Islamic legislations, when they seek to apply her what they called the "woman rights" according to their worldly laws, then the woman step by step turns to be as a stuff for selling and buying, especially on those religious societies and civilizations that precede Islam which they are indeed only" talkative" about the woman rights.
When the modern societies neglect the values and the sacred role of women which God recommends for her , and when they have put on the laws of life legislation such as the new definitions and philosophy doctrines of human rights and woman rights, the women on this occasion becomes as merchandise which is in request exposure to be bought and sold as much as she has beauty and charm on her figure as the movie stars who tempt people. lastly when she lacks the properties of shine figure she becomes deserted because she looses the virtue of moral values.
When these values of Islam turned to be abandoned, we shall expect the decay and the decline of societies for worst behavioral values and temptation, since the woman is the valve of safety and when this valve is punctured, the whole rights will be affected and the society turns to deterioration on all its aspects as the Arabic poet said;
"Mother is as school if you consider her appreciations at last you will gain good quality of people".
Each society will not catch the progress line by tackling only with the equality between man and woman on just using the new applications of applicable laws, unless this society itself deals rightfully according to the natural distinction between woman and man as religious doctrines recommendations.
When woman role is taken into consideration, the family will return back to its virtuous and righteous role not momently, but for everlasting.
Many Islamic societies are dragged on to follow the new instructions and disciplines of freedom pertaining to woman which leads to the failure of Arabic and Muslim woman on the side of her Islamic characteristics that God donates her.
At last the Muslim woman lost her original features and neither she is the familiar Arabic woman or the western woman because of this decline and this disappointment.
We quite know that West Societies people will not regard the Arabic woman, however, she was educated and enlightened because of their superiority and mockery keep –sighting against Muslim woman.
Now after entering this dark tunnel of misguided thoughts which leads to scratch the woman shyness and decide into turning her to be as insignificant material for buying and selling. Is it possible now for time or history to be amended and asking about the restoration of the fallen nature of woman to be recovered back for her shine role and position?
I think when we talk about woman, we must return back to the period of our Prophet Mohammad and his pious Companions -God's blessing and peace upon him- to ask ourselves how they judge and treat their women on the shadowy of Islam religion.
And to ask ourselves about our exemplar Prophet; was he stern or kind with his wives and daughters and other women of his nation.
Does the Prophet cooperates with woman and don't oppress her rights ? Does he really respect and consider her rights?
We should ask ourselves all the above forementioned questions to find out the reality of Islam how it is handling with women matter.
Anyone shouldn't accuse the Islamic religious of thing is clear out of it, and who claims the right way may return to judging himself on the green light of Islam purposes such as Koran and Sunna of the Prophet , and might not govern on the tribalism disputes which lack the origin of Islam aspects or Islamic constitution.
Now after mentioning the above preamble we shall turn to state the role and the status of woman on Islam in systematic and scientific methodical approaches by the following notices:
1- the status of woman according to Sunna of Prophet and Koran:
Allah the Great and Almighty confirms oh his Reverend Sacred Book the greatness of woman role and accord her the specific care and attention since she has general outstanding roles on society which may be precede the man on several views, on which our Prophet had confirmed upon the prominent status of woman on several sayings of his Sunna relating and each of it assures her respectful rank on the society.
It is seemed thoroughly and perfectly with out doubt that there is no reasons or perplexing thought to whom claimed the lack of woman rights on Islam and the door is totally shut out against those atheists who stab Islam religion on its back or can engage their noses to speak out shamelessly about woman on Islam.
A- woman on the shadowy light of Koran:
Before the West Institutions issued and before their Revolutions start and when Europe lived on darkness and govern its people with the Law of Jungle and when their people eat others on struggles and catastrophic weep and death, the lights of Islam illuminates many parts of Arabian desert and the Eastern homelands which predicts the new dawn of Islam religion and really new rooted transformational movement appears and alteration is made to change the status of human from paganism to treat him with the free flexible thought of Islam and to save the woman from the stern behavior of bad custom tragedy traditions as the habit of olden days.
There are several Verses of the Holy Koran which state about the woman rights and her obligations to donate her the prominent role on the society.
These are lists of example Verses of Koran we state bellow:
1- Woman Sura Verse 1, Allah The Great and Almighty said : (( O, people worship your God, who creates you from one soul and creates from this soul her spouse and sows widely both women and men of this seed. I order you to obey and fear thy God who will asks you at doomsday about your deeds and be careful with your cognate relationships. Allah is watcher and observer in what you do))
2- On the Alhugurat( champers) Sura Allah The Great and Almighty said: (( O, people we create you from male and female and we allow you to be nations and tribes in order to acquaint each other. The generous one between you is who fears God and obeys Him gratefully)).
3- Woman Sura Verse 11 Allah The Great and Almighty Said:
Allah recommends and perch you to be wise and justice between your sons, that is the male must have double portion contrasted to what the female is worthy of heritage, and if the females are more than two they ought to have the one- third of the heritage, and if it is only one daughter, she may have the half of what her father left, and for his parents who still lived the one of six of the heritage if the deceased has son, but if the deceased has not sons, his mother should have the one – third of what had left of heritages, but if the deceased had left brothers, her mother should have the one of six after the will is written on or is entrusted with someone. You don't know which son is the most helpful for you. This is task and willing of God upon you. The Glorious God is wisdom and knowable on his creatures affairs.))
The precise wisdom of the above divisions of heritage, that male had the double portions against female, based on; that woman has not responsibility as man and it is quite justice judgment, and when the woman married she has of course her totally rights upon her husband and if we look generally and scrupulously but neutrally we can find that woman had advantages more than man and has the best position rather than her partner the man.
4- The Bees Sura Verse 97 Allah The Great and Almighty states:
((Who do the good deeds whether he is male or female if he is faithful, we shall donates him the easy life and we shall rewarding him the best reward than his good deeds.))
5- Woman Sura Verse 32 Allah The Great and Almighty said:
(( Don't wish to obtain something if God prefers one of you rather than the others on blessing, the men have portion of what they had acquired and as well as the women so likewise. Ask your God to donate you from his Favour, Allah is knowable on everything.))
6- Repentance Sura Verse 71. Allah The Great and Almighty said:
(( Faithful women and faithful men each of them is the guardian and the custodian of other and each one of them order for the behalf of good deed, and forbid the viciousness, pray to his God, gives the Zakat, and obey Allah and his Prophet. Those people Allah shall be mercy with them and reward them. Allah is Mighty and Wise))
7- Woman Sura Verse 19 Allah The Great and Almighty said:
(( O, Faithful people; you are not allowed to inherit women hatefully and prevent them from marrying in order to take over on their heritage unless they commit manifest adultery and you may handle them with courtesy. If you hate them, may be blessing of God hides in the part you hate.))
It is clear from the above forementioned Verses of Koran that Islam don't differ or makes distinctions between man and woman, but judges them equally according to what each one of them is deserved of his equivalent rights, in spite of those who provoke hostility against Islam, because they had not any excuses but only to refute and tried to lessen or distort the shining picture and the righteous principles of Islam, but even if they seek vainly, our God will protect and support this religion and will enlighten this belief until it is entirely go ahead.
Even we had discussed the position of woman through Koran, we may pay a visit into what our Prophet Sunna to enlighten our speech by his tasteful speech and instructions into both doing and saying and control the light upon the woman right according to his view.
