Everyday we listen some hot news about cruelty on Muslims women in the name of Islam and in majority of cases, created by Western propaganda machine.. Always read Muslim scholars Book, Refer Holy Quran to understand Rights and status of Muslim Women in islam.In the modern world, many negative things are being spoken particularly about Muslim Women. The world has been made to believe that Islam does not consider men and women as equal. And that Muslim women are suppressed. They do not enjoy the freedom which non-muslim women do.
In the western society today there is a stereotypical belief that Islamic women are treated unequally and cruelly. The object of this report is to challenge this stereotype and the argument of gender equality within the Islamic Religion/Muslim society.
Unfortunately, some Muslim Women have fallen prey to such propaganda. They have discarded their Religious obligations in order to show to the world, what in fact, the world wants to see of them.
The nature of a woman is fundamentally different from man. Women are more timid, gentle and caring then men. This is the reason why they have been chosen (by Allah) to be the perfect bearers of children. As this is a very vast topic and it is very difficult to cover it in a single article , I am giving brief idea of that with some links to read from my own blog.
In a truly Islamic society women have the following rights in Islam:
1. The right and duty to obtain education.
2. The right to have their own independent property.
3. The right to work to earn money if they need it or want it.
4. Equality of reward for equal deeds.
5. The right to express their opinion and be heard.
6. The right to provisions from the husband for all her needs and more.
7. The right to negotiate marriage terms of her choice.
8. The right to obtain divorce from her husband, even on the grounds that she simply can’t stand him. (pls note that God deeply frowns upon divorce as a solution unless there is hardly any other alternative but it does not mean that men have more right to divorce their wives than women do.
9. The right to keep all her own money (she is not responsible to maintain any relations.
10. The right to get sexual satisfaction from her husband.
11. custody of their children after divorce.
12. to refuse any marriage that does not please them
The Social Aspect of Woman in Islam as a child and an adolescent
Despite the social acceptance of female infanticide among some Arabian tribes, the Qur’an forbade this custom, and considered it a crime like any other murder.
“And when the female (infant) buried alive - is questioned, for what crime she was killed.” (Qur’an 81:8-9).
Criticizing the attitudes of such parents who reject their female children, the Qur’an states: When news is brought to one of them, of (the Birth of) a female (child), his face darkens and he is filled with inward grief! With shame does he hide himself from his people because of the bad news he has had! Shall he retain her on (sufferance) and contempt, or bury her in the dust? Ah! What an evil (choice) they decide on? (Qur’an 16: 58-59).
Far from saving the girl’s life so that she may later suffer injustice and inequality, Islam requires kind and just treatment for her. Among the sayings of Prophet Muhammad (P.) in this regard are the following :
Whosoever has a daughter and he does not bury her alive, does not insult her, and does not favor his son over her, God will enter him into Paradise. (Ibn Hanbal, No. 1957). Whosoever supports two daughters till they mature, he and I will come in the day of judgment as this (and he pointed with his two fingers held together).
A similar Hadeeth deals in like manner with one who supports two sisters. (Ibn-Hanbal, No. 2104).
The right of females to seek knowledge is not different from that of males. Prophet Muhammad (P.) said:“Seeking knowledge is mandatory for every Muslim”. . Muslim as used here including both males and females.

WOMAN AND HER SOCIAL INDEPENDENCE
Equality, but not Uniformity
According to Islamic Law, women cannot be forced to marry anyone
without their consent
It surprises me that a women wearing nothing but a G string walking down the street is expressing her constitutional right whilst a Muslim women wearing a head scarf (Known as a hijab) is considered a threat to society and an outcast. What kind of message is being portrayed by the women wearing only a G string and walking the street? It's ok to exploit yourself and attract unwanted even dangerous attention to yourself because you are a free western women?
