EQUALITY AND STATUS OF WOMEN IN ISLAM

In this belated age, when Islam is being attacked from all angles and fronts, one

particularly common attack and criticism against Islam is the status of women. The

enemies of Islam have a few old worn-out propaganda tactics against Islam over the

centuries; which they revamp and facelift every now and again. Amongst them the

issue of the status of women in Islam. They claim that Islam has given no rights to

women; that women are oppressed, that women are considered inferior to men.

Islam has given the highest position to womankind on earth, while Europe and the

West were wallowing in the dregs of degradation and savagery. Islam had accorded

women a position of honour, respect, safety and love, that has not yet been matched

to this day, let alone being superceded and excelled.

WHAT HAS WESTERN CIVILISATION GIVEN TO WOMEN?

Prostitution, Escort Agencies, Massage Parlours, Lesbianism, Illegal Mistresses,

Nudity and Shamelessness. These are only some of the 'rights' that the Western

World has given to women. It has made women the cheapest commodity on earth -from

a car to a packet of sweets, everything sell with the picture of a nude or

semi-nude woman. The body of this cheap woman is the property of one and all.

Every lusty and lecherous man is at full liberty to cast his filthy and dirty gazes

upon her anatomy and commit everything evil and profanity in his mind and heart.
