The Status of Women in the Holy Qur'an and the Sunnah
Abstract
This research examines the status of women in Islam by reviewing Qur'anic verses and Prophetic hadiths that address their rights and role in society. The research focuses on how the Holy Qur'an and Prophetic Sunnah treat women, emphasizing respect for their dignity and providing them with their rights in various aspects of life.
The research reviews the rights granted by Islam to women, such as their right to education, work, and inheritance, in addition to their rights as wives and mothers. It also presents the Prophet's (peace be upon him) positions in his interactions with women, both in his personal life and in his guidance to society.
The research aims to clarify how Islam presented a comprehensive vision of women's rights, distinct from the prevailing concepts in some ancient cultures and societies that limited women's rights. The research concludes that Islam guaranteed women a high status and gave them an important role in building society
