Woman....!!

Those were times of ignorance when women were buried and comes Islam which gave respect, dignitynand love to them. Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) used to lay down his chadder for his beloved daughter. Before Islam, women never got any share in property and no influence in politics and communities.

Prophet (PBUH), in his last sermon, declared that " you have rights over your wives and your wives have rights over you". It is a universal declaration for the status of women in society. No other religion has given such a esteemed status to women. Women in west were not even allowed to cast votes till the first half of last century. Besides being a mother, wife, daughter and sister she could be best friend for someone special in her life. Woman is a comfort that Allah has provided to this world and must be respected.

It is rightly said that behind every successful man, there is a woman behind him. This is very true in these modern times. Woman is an institution that builds a household, society and civilizations.
