Women's Rights In Islam

[umm Zachariah]

Bismillah,


Assalamu aleikum sister Laian,


Alhamdulillah for the Qur'an and the hadiths that give us guidance, how to act according to His will. Masha'Allah a very great and precious gift we are given.


Wasalam


Hi JohnDoe,


Yes your interpretation seems a bit, 'out of line'. Sister Laian explained it very well. So let me just instead emphasize on that Islam is a GUIDANCE to people. Allah, SWT constantly warns us of what will come. And I think you are following me here, I talk about the Life in the Hereafter. You 'interpret' what you read in black in white, and perhaps it can look like that if you don't try to appreciate the MESSAGE, the inner meaning. But to be able to understand, you have to look a bit deeper, you have to envolve your heart when you are looking. Otherwise all what Allah, SWT and the Prophet Muhammad, saws is telling you will make no sense what so ever.


So yes Godfearing Muslim women AND men, will treat the other creations (in this case the spouse) with respect, since we understand the power behind everything that we learn. We know we don't belong or possess each other, we are only trustees. We are 'assigned' to take care of each other and also the rest of the creation.
