Islam was introduced in that reign where
women were given unequal rights in comparsion to males. Allah(SWT) says in glorious HOLY QURAN:"They (your wives) are your garment and you are a garment for them(2:187)".This verse clearly indicates responsiblities of man towards his spouse etc. HOLY PROHET (S.A.W) said:"Never will succeed such a nation as lets their affairs carried out by a woman"(Sahih Bukhari: 4425,Sunan Nisai:8/227) The dress code is not prescribed briefly in Quran. Quran says that both women and men should dress in modest way. Emphasizing on clothing further it refers that women should must cover their face till toes surah:24,31. In the spread of Islam,women contibuted equally in comparsion to males.Among the first ever woman to step up for Islam was Khadija(SA).First Wife of HOLY PROPHET (S.A.W) she was the first ever woman to accept Islam she supported Messenger(S.A.W) emotionally, financially supporting him to spread his message gain followers and influence every people in Mecca.Ayesha(SA) said:Prophet(S.A.W) miss Khadija(S.A) desperately when Islam arose at its peak. Another women who contributed in spreading of Islam was Fatima(S.A) Daughter of Prophet(S.A.W) She accompany Messenger(S.A.W) from very early age initially when messenger (saw) spread Islam at different places Fatima(Sa) was the one who always support him. When persecutions were at its peak in mecca Fatim(Sa) stood with his father. quraysh mistreats their daughters but Prophet(saw) love towards Fatima(sa) was unmatchable. Prophet (SAW) said: Fatima is from me and I am from Fatima Whatever pleases her pleases me whatever troubles her troubles me"(Bukhari,Muslim)
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: The Prophet Muhammad said, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him: Your Heaven lies under the feet of your mother (Ahmad, Nasai).
Abdullah ibn Amr related that the
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).
The most complete of the believers in faith,
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) . Al-Aswad asked `A’ishah about what the 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)
