www.the-faith.com
The E-Da`wah Committee in Kuwait, is please to present this short publication on the status
of women in Islam. We will quote 10+ Prophetic Hadiths about women with a view to seeing
how Islam honors and respects women’s rights.
Rights of Women are Inviolable
. `A’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated, “The Prophet (peace be upon him)
said, “O Allah, I declare inviolable the rights of two weak ones: the orphans and
women.” (An- Nasaa’i)
Good Treatment with Wife
. Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported, “The Messenger of
Allah(peace be upon him) said, “A believer must not hate (his wife) believing woman; if he
dislikes one of her characteristics he will be pleased with another.” (Muslim)
No Compulsion in Marriage
. Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace be upon
him) said, “A woman who has been previously married (thayyib) has more right to her
person than her guardian; and a virgin’s father must ask her consent from her, her consent
being her silence.” (Muslim)
Reward of Raising Children
. `A’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported, “A woman came to me with her
two daughters. She asked me (for charity) but she found nothing with me except one date-
fruit, so I gave it to her. She accepted it and then divided it between her two daughters and
herself ate nothing out of that. She then got up and went out. When the Messenger of Allah
(peace be upon him) came in, and I narrated to him the story, he said, “He who is involved
(in the responsibility) of (bringing up) daughters, and he is benevolent towards them, they
would become protection for him against Hell-fire.” (Al-Bukhari and Muslim)
Rights of Mothers
. Narrated Abu Hurayrah, “A man came to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) and
said, “O Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him)! Who is more entitled to be treated with the
best companionship by me?” The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Your mother.” The
man said. “Who is next?” The Prophet said, “Your mother.” The man further said, “Who is
next?” The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Your mother.” The man asked for the fourth
time, “Who is next?” The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Your father.” (Al-Bukhari)

. `A’ishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported that the Messenger of Allah(peace
be upon him) never hit anything with his hand neither a servant nor a woman but of course,
he did fight in the Cause of Allah. (Muslim)
Treating Women Gently
. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “The believers who show the most perfect
faith are those who have the best behavior, and the best of you are those who are the best
to their wives.” (At-Tirmidhi)
Care for Women’s Rights
. Jabir ibn `Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet
(peace be upon him) said, “Fear Allah concerning women! Verily you have taken them on
the security of Allah, and intercourse with them has been made lawful unto you by words of
Allah.” (Muslim)
Wife’s Rights
. Mu`awiyah ibn Haidah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported, “I asked
Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him): “What right can any wife demand of her
husband?” He replied, “You should give her food when you eat, clothe her when you clothe
yourself, not strike her on the face, and do not revile her or separate from her except in the
house”. (Abu Dawud)
Loving One’s Wife
. Narrated `A’ishah, “I never felt so jealous of any wife of Allah’s Messenger (peace be
upon him) as I did of Khadijah because Allah’s Messenger used to remember and praise her
too often and because it was revealed to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) that he
should give her (Khadijah) the glad tidings of her having a palace of Qasab (hollowed
pearls) in Paradise.” (Al-Bukhari)
Right to Education
. Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri, “Some women requested the Prophet (peace be upon
him) to fix a day for them as the men were taking all his time. On that he promised them
one day for religious lessons and commandments.” (Al-Bukhari)
