About Islam And Women
Source (google.com.pk)
In the divine scheme of regulation of the relationship between men
and women, Islam has assigned a position of dignity and honour to
woman. Such beneficent regulation is essential for peace, comfort,
happiness, continuation of the species and progress.
The Holy Quran emphasizes that God in His perfect wisdom has
created all species in pairs, and so men and women have been created
of the same species; as is said:
“He created you from a single being; then of the same kind made
its mate.” (39:7)
“He has made for you mates of your own kind.” (42:12)
“O mankind, be mindful of your duty to your Lord, Who created
you from a single soul and from it created its mate and from the
two created and spread many men and women. “(4:2)
“He it is Who has created you from a single soul and made there
from its mate, so that the male might incline towards the female
and find comfort in her.”
“Of His Signs it is that He has created mates for you of your own
kind that you may find peace of mind through them, and He has
put love and tenderness between you. In that surely are Signs for a
people who reflect.” (30:22)
Islam teaches that the faculties and capacities bestowed by God upon
man are a divine bounty and must be beneficently employed:
“Allah brought you forth from the wombs of your mothers, when
you knew nothing, and gave you ears and eyes and hearts that you
may employ them beneficently.” (16:79)
This means that they must be exercised at their proper time and on
their appropriate occasion, in which case they would be fostered and
multiplied. But their neglect or misuse would attract divine wrath.
Some religious disciplines mistakenly esteem celibacy more exalted
spiritually than conjugal life. Islam disapproves of celibacy and
condemns it. The Holy Quran says:
“They devised monasticism as a means of seeking Allah’s pleasure.
We did not prescribe it for them, and they did not observe it
duly.” (57:28)
The whole concept of monasticism originated in the notion that
woman was an inferior type of creation and association with her was
degrading and demoralizing. The Church Fathers laid the
responsibility of man’s fall upon woman, and represented her as being
without a soul and an instrument of the devil. 3
Islam denounced this attitude, and raised woman to a position of
spiritual equality with man. It held that man and woman
complemented each other and were a means of mutual fulfilment. For
instance it is said:
“They are a garment for you and you are a garment for them .”
(2:188)
SPIRITUAL EQUALITY
Woman’s spiritual equality with man is repeatedly stressed in the
Holy Quran. For instance it is said:
“For men who submit themselves wholly to Allah, and women
who submit themselves wholly to Him and men who believe and
women who believe, and men who obey Allah and women who
obey Him, and men who are truthful and women who are
truthful, and men who are steadfast and women who are
steadfast, and men who are humble and women who are humble,
and men who give alms and women who give alms, and men who
fast and women who fast, and men who guard their chastity and
women who guard their chastity, and men who remember Allah
much and women who remember Him, Allah has prepared
forgiveness and a great reward.” (33:36)
“Allah will turn in mercy to believing men and believing women;
Allah is Most Forgiving, Ever Merciful.” (33:74)
Men and women are afforded equal protection. For instance:
“Those who malign believing men and believing women for that
which they have not done, shall bear the guilt of a calumny and a
manifest sin.” (33:59)
“Those who persecute the believing men and believing women,
and then do not repent, will surely suffer the chastisement of hell,
and the chastisement of burning.” (85:11)
Concerning the situation that developed at Hudaibiyyah, it is said:
“Had it not been for believing men and believing women of whom
you had no knowledge, who were then in Mecca, whom you might
have trampled down unknowingly and thus incurred blame on
their account, Allah might have let you fight your way into
Mecca; but He held you back that He might admit into His
mercy whom He will. Had those believing men and believing
women drawn apart from the rest, We would surely have
chastised the disbelievers with grievous chastisement.”(48:26)
Women, being more vulnerable than men, are accorded special
protection:
“Those who calumniate chaste, unwary, believing women are
cursed in this world and the hereafter; and for them is grievous
chastisement, on the day when their tongues and their hands and
their feet shall bear witness against them as to that which they
used to do.”
