The Status of The Women in Islam by Shaykh Saalih Al-Fawzaan (Authenthic Statements)

The Status of The Woman in Islam

Al-Islam has given to the status of the woman and her position within Al-Islam and that she has a great status within Al-Islam; a prestigious status; a status of respect, and she is not an object of enjoyment. Rather, she has a place within the masjid and she has a status within the society. She has a status within the home and she has a right as it relates to the inheritance; she has a right as it relates to buying and selling and ownership. She may own that which Allah permits her within Islam and this is her status.
