Muslim Women and Confused status of Women in Islam

 

One of the popular tools through which modernists and so called intellectuals are trying to defame Islam is by misquoting the status of women in Islam. Therefore, I put a lot of time and effort into curating these Islamic Quotes on the status of women in Islam. The fact is that millions of Muslim women enjoy their rights and are treated well by Muslims in the society. Only a small percentage of Muslim women suffers but not due to the religion of Islam, but due to the cultural rituals and mindset prevailed in the country.

While the western culture and countries claim to treat their women better, their history shows that they have just learned the lesson and that too partially. However, Islam liberated women about 1400+ years ago through its beautiful teaching of mutual love, respect, responsibilities, and rights.
