The position of women in Islaam today
1 .Not only today, but yesterday and until doomsday was same will be same, nothing will be chainge, why I’m saying that? God almighty said in His book (Al-Qur’aan)….
[17:77] This has been consistently the case with all the messengers that we sent before you, and you will find that our system, rules, way and law never changes.
[35:43] They resorted to arrogance on earth, and evil scheming, and the evil schemes only backfire on those who scheme them. Should they then expect anything but the fate of those who did the same things in the past? You will find that GOD's system is never changeable; you will find that GOD's system, rules, way and law is immutable.
2. Islaam gives more right then men, you might say HOW, WHY, WHERE, WHEN so on? All answers will find in book of God (Al-Qur’aan) i.e.……..
[81:7] The souls are restored to their bodies.
[81:8] The girl who was buried alive is asked:
[81:9] For what crime was she killed?
These are fact in the past present (yesterday and today) look at in China, India and other part of the world. Islaam forbid killing, every human right to live, WHO give this right? Al_Qur’aan.
[17:70] We have honored the children of Adam, and provided them with rides on land and in the sea. We provided for them good provisions, and we gave them greater advantages than many of our creatures.
Not only men but every single one.
[95:4] We created human (Insaan) in the best design.
Again not only men but Human
Equality in deed
[33:35] The submitting men, the submitting women, the believing men, the believing women, the obedient men, the obedient women, the truthful men, the truthful women, the steadfast men, the steadfast women, the reverent men, the reverent women, the charitable men, the charitable women, the fasting men, the fasting women, the chaste men, the chaste women, and the men who commemorate GOD frequently, and the commemorating women; GOD has prepared for them forgiveness and a great recompense.
Equality in penalty
[5:38] The thief, male or female, you shall stop their hands* as a punishment for their crime, and to serve as an example from GOD. GOD is Almighty, Most Wise
[24:2] The adulteress and the adulterer you shall whip each of them a hundred lashes. Do not be swayed by pity from carrying out GOD's law, if you truly believe in GOD and the Last Day. And let a group of believers witness their penalty.
Look there are numres example in Al-Qur’aan, I can not cover all in here.
Vital thing is men can not be women nor women can not be men, respndsibilites will not be a same, what man can do women can not do, what women can do men can not do that is a fact.

God bless you all

This depends on the country, the traditions, culture and practices.In Islamic law a woman is an independent, unique individual in her own right. She has the same responsibilities towards herself, towards God and towards other human beings as the male, and will be punished or rewarded in the Hereafter without discrimination towards her female gender.
There are alot of educated Muslim women out there in all parts of the world who is very aware of her rights and position in todays society. Equally, there are alot of uneducated Muslim woman too who are very much unaware of theirs. This right is often taken over by certain practices, traditions and cultures that can be entirely different from one country to another and is nothing to do with the Islamic right for the woman as laid down in the Qur'an, again men try and control alot of the women too this way purely for their own selfish purposes or by creating such Laws which can limit her totally from being liberated. Something to which she is granted by right from her Islamic faith.
Being born in the West..i am totally happy as a Muslim woman with my own rights and for the way I am treated. I have the right to education, the right to work and not to work, the right to own land and property, the right to choose a marriage partner. Although, in some parts of the world this is arranged, it is merely an introduction to a suitable partner, I retain that right to refuse him too...
I have come across many Muslim women here and abroad too who are happy and in no way feel oppressed in such a way that they feel unhappy about it.

before and now women is the same in Islam, cause Islam is a complete religion, but the problem was in the ppl, who didn't understand Islam.
In the season of the Prophet Mohammad and after that season tell 300 years, the women was respected more than now, the women is not equal men, each kind have his separate features, so nobody can be replaced to other, the women in these days are working hard like men, do the things that men do, they lost the meaning of femininity, leanness, and other stuff.
or they become a ware buts on everything, magazine, pictures, promotions, propaganda, and what, most of them almost naked. what is this ppl, wake up guys.
look back and see the great ppl in the world who breed them, you will find women after them, cause no one can do this job but them, the women, God buts that only on them, its a hard job for men, cause this job depends on it the continuously of human kind.
just look deep now days to our girls and boys, half of them are gay.
uhh
sorry for tall letter.
have a nice everything

Last one I spoke to was getting very creative with regards ways to kill her husband most inhumanely. I'd call that progress all things considering.

I don't think that will happen, unless they totally do away with the Khoran(sp?) According to this book a man's prayer can be nullified if a woman or a DOG walks in front of them while they are praying....
