Islam honors women.

Indeed, Islam honors the Muslim woman in a magnificent way, protects her in the best possible manner, and guarantees her an honorable life. Her symbol is modesty and chastity. Her garment is purity and cleanliness. Her banner is the spreading of good manners and the realization of good character traits. Her goal is the protection of her honor and the safeguarding of her virtue. Thus, the Muslim woman remains glorious, with a high status and good character, as long as she holds fast to the religion, observes the commands of her Lord, obeys her Prophet ﷺ, submits to Allah, and follows His legislation and rulings with complete calm, trust, and serenity. In this way, she will find happiness and peace in this worldly life and will receive a great reward on the Day of Resurrection. In a hadith, the Prophet ﷺ says: ((If a woman prays her five (daily prayers), fasts her month (Ramadan), guards her chastity, and obeys her husband, she will enter Paradise from whichever of its gates she wishes.)) 1 Imam Ahmad recorded the hadith of ‘Abdur-Rahmaan ibn ‘Awf, in which the Prophet ﷺ says: ((If a woman prays her five (daily prayers), fasts her month (Ramadan), guards her chastity, and obeys her husband, it will be said to her: "Enter Paradise from whichever of the gates of Paradise you wish.")) 2 So congratulations to the Muslim woman for this honorable promise and magnificent virtue that has been granted to her, as long as she holds fast to these honorable instructions. She should not look toward the aimlessness of those who call to abominations and fitnah: ۞﴿And Allah wants to accept your repentance, but those who follow [their] passions want you to veer far away [from the right path].﴾۞ [Surah an-Nisaa’ 4:27] Publisher: Barakah Original Title: Takriemul-Islam LiL-Mar'ah Author: Shaykh Abdur-Razzaaq bin 'Abdil-Muhsin al-Badr Number of pages: 94 Translator: Bilaal al-Eritree Reviewer: Yoesuf abu sirin (graduate of the Islamic University of Madinah) First edition: Rabi al-Awwal 1438 A.H.
