A Glimpse Of Islam's Great Concern For Women by Rashduct4luv(m): 11:45am On Sep 21, 2019
1- When the religion of Islam was revealed to the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, it was the custom of the people of the pre-Islamic era to hate and detest women. Allaah, The Exalted, Says (what means): {And when one of them is informed of [the birth of] a female, his face becomes dark, and he suppresses grief.} [Quran 16: 58]

They disdained the infant girl and would bury her alive. Islam prohibited this and insisted that she be exalted and maintained with dignity. Allah, The Almighty, Says (what means): {And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked, for what sin she was killed.} [Quran 81: 8-9]
In some Ahadeeth, the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:

• "Whoever maintains two daughters until they become independent will come on the Day of Resurrection along with me (close to each other) like these two (and he joined his two fingers)." [Muslim]

• "Whoever is put to trial by these daughters and he treats them kindly, these daughters will act as a shield for him from Hell." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

2- When the religion of Islam was revealed to the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, it had been the habit of the people of the pre-Islamic era to prevent the woman from her share in the inheritance. Islam gave her this right, whether little or large; Allah, The Exalted, Says (what means): {For men is a share of what the parents and close relatives leave, and for women is a share of what the parents and close relatives leave, be it little or much - an obligatory share.} [Quran 4: 7]

3- When the religion of Islam was revealed to the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, it had been the habit of the people of the pre-Islamic era to inherit women against their will. When a woman's husband died, one of the heirs would come, throw a garment over her and say, "I have inherited her just as I have inherited his wealth." This would entitle him to have more control over her than herself. Islam prohibited this. Allah, The Exalted, Says (what means): {O you who have believed, it is not lawful for you to inherit women by compulsion.} [Quran 4: 9]

4- When the religion of Islam was revealed to the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, it had been the habit of the people of the pre-Islamic era to make difficulties for their women in order to prevent them from receiving their rights. A man would prevent his divorcee from remarrying until she had returned everything he had spent on her. A father would prevent his daughter from marriage, and likewise, the brother would prevent his sister if he so willed. A man would mistreat his wife and refuse to divorce her unless she ransomed herself. Islam prevented all this and eradicated such behavior. Allah, The Exalted, Says (what means):

• {And do not make difficulties for them in order to take [back] part of what you gave them unless they commit a clear immorality.} [Quran 4: 19]

• {Do not prevent them from remarrying their [former] husbands if they agree among themselves on an acceptable basis.} [Quran 2: 232]

5- When the religion of Islam was revealed to the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, the woman was suffering from her husband's oppression, bad morals and ill treatment. Islam prohibited this and commanded the husband to treat her just as he would like her to treat him. Allah, The Exalted, Says (what means):

• {And live with them in kindness.} [Quran 4: 19]

• {And due to the wives is similar to what is expected of them, according to what is reasonable.} [Quran 2: 228]

6- When the religion of Islam was revealed to the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, the widow's ‘Iddah (waiting period after the death of her husband) was a complete year. Islam lessened it to just a third. Allah, The Exalted Says (what means): {And those who are taken in death among you and leave wives behind - they, [the wives, shall] wait four months and ten [days].} [Quran 2: 234]

7- Islam instructed that women should be treated with kindness. In a Hadeeth, the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: "Be kind to women." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

It also forbade one to hate his believing wife. The Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:

• "A believing man should not hate a believing woman; if he dislikes one of her characteristics, he would like another one." [Muslim]

• "The best of you are those who are the kindest to their wives." [At-Tirmithi]

• "This life is enjoyment, and the best of its enjoyment is a righteous wife." ` [Muslim]

While indicating the characteristics of the righteous wife, the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: "She is the wife who pleases her husband when he looks at her, obeys him when he commands her and safeguards his honor and wealth when he is not present." [Ahmad and An-Nasa’i]

Quran 2:222
وَ يَسۡـــَٔلُوۡنَكَ عَنِ الۡمَحِيۡضِ‌ۙ قُلۡ هُوَ اَذًى فَاعۡتَزِلُوۡا النِّسَآءَ فِى الۡمَحِيۡضِ‌ۙ وَلَا تَقۡرَبُوۡهُنَّ حَتّٰى يَطۡهُرۡنَ‌‌ۚ فَاِذَا تَطَهَّرۡنَ فَاۡتُوۡهُنَّ مِنۡ حَيۡثُ اَمَرَكُمُ اللّٰهُ‌ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ يُحِبُّ التَّوَّابِيۡنَ وَيُحِبُّ الۡمُتَطَهِّرِيۡنَ

They ask thee concerning women's courses. Say: They are a hurt and a pollution: So keep away from women in their courses, and do not approach them until they are clean. But when they have purified themselves, ye may approach them in any manner, time, or place ordained for you by Allah. For Allah loves those who turn to Him constantly and He loves those who keep themselves pure and clean.

this is great concern to women:

Surah 2:230: So if a husband
divorces his wife (irrevocably),
He cannot, after that, re-marry
her until after she has married
another husband and He has
divorced her. In that case, there
is no blame on either of them if
they re-unite. (Yusuf Ali)

Allah specifies that in order for the wife to reunite with her husband, after a hasty unintentional divorce , she has to first marry someone who in turn has to divorce her again. Can there be a more degrading way to
dishonor the dignity of a woman than this?Why should a second marriage and a second divorce be required as a mandatory precondition before the divorced couple can work out their differences and get back
together? To solve the problem of a hasty divorce with another hasty divorce is totally insane. How can a wrong committed unintentionally be corrected by a wrong committed intentionally? Two wrongs do not
make a right!

Sometimes you Christians need to sit back and think before barging in a thread with ignorance plus arrogance.
Divorce is done three separate times in Islam.
The divorce is irrevocable after the third divorce.

After the first/second divorce the woman has a waiting period in her husband's house....

It's not every Muslim thread you can hop in and contradict.

You should have known him. He twists text, fabricates references, post false messages about Islam. Then he runs away. They are Christians.
Please keep reporting him when you see his nonsense.

What logic is there to punish
the unintentional wrongdoer who regrets his wrongful course but not the willful wrongdoer of the same offense?

If at all there is a necessity to punish, why punish the
innocent wife instead of the husband?

It's like you don't even understand what you are typing. First go and read about Talaq and Khul' before you comment.
