Islam is the religion of peace,unity and equality.

women were given unequal rights in

responsiblities of man towards his spouse etc.

such a nation as lets their affairs carried out by
a woman"(Sahih Bukhari: 4425,Sunan

Quranic verse about women:


"We have enjoined on man kindness to his
parents; in pain did his mother bear him, and in
pain did she give him birth" (46:15).

Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none


but Him, and that ye be kind to parents.
Whether one or both of them attain old age in
thy life, say not to them a word of contempt,
nor repel them, but address them in terms of
honor. And out of kindness, lower to them the
wing of humility, and say: ‘My Lord! bestow on
them Thy Mercy even as they cherished me in
childhood' "(17:23-24).
And of His signs is that He created for you from
yourselves mates that you may find tranquility
in them; and He placed between you affection
and mercy. Indeed in that are signs for a people
who give thought} (Ar-Rum 30:21)

“Our Lord, grant us from among our spouses


and offspring comfort to our eyes and make us
an example for the righteous.” Quran (25:74)

Ahadith:

peace and blessings be upon him: Your

Messenger of Allah said: The major sins are
to believe that Allah has partners, to
disobey one's parents, to commit murder,
and to bear false witness (Bukhari, Muslim).

is the one with the best character. And the
best of you are those who are best to their
women.”(At-Tirmidhi and authenticated by
Al-Albani)

Prophet used to do at home. She replied.
“He used to serve his household but when it
was time for the prayer, he would get up for
prayer.” (Al-Bukhari)
