What is the Status of Women in Islam
In Islam, woman has a high status which no past nation ever achieved. For instance in Christianity the women were regarded as someone who did not even have a soul. Islam does justice to both men and women.
Allah says:
“Whoever works righteousness – whether male or female – while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him We will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and We shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e. Paradise in the Hereafter)” [al-Nahl 16:97]
“And whoever does righteous good deeds, male or female, and is a (true) believer [in the Oneness of Allaah (Muslim)], such will enter Paradise and not the least injustice, even to the size of a Naqeera (speck on the back of a date stone), will be done to them”[al-Nisa 4:124]
The above verses thus shows that paradise is for both men and women. Its also shows that Paradise is not for any man or any women but it is for a women and men who are true Muslims and are righteous.
In Islam there is no competition between the two sexes unlike the uncivilized nations who are infested with women trying to compete with men and loosing their femininity and themselves in the competition.
However, in the Islamic way of life , the civilized way of life, men and women are both helpers of each other. It is a beautiful relationship between the two sexes. As we can see from the following verse in which Allah, the Lord of the worlds, says:-
“The believers, men and women, are Awliya (helpers, supporters, friends, protectors) of one another”
[al-Tawbah 9:71]
I’m a Young MuslimI’m a young Muslim who’s full of respect,
and I try to spend time to reflect
on my lord who created me
and allowed me to be absolutely free.
In Ramadhan I keep my fasts,
and look back on my sins of the past,
and recite the Quran every night,
to keep shaitan out of sight.
I try to dress properly
with my hijab and jilbaab full of modesty,
I try to give money to the poor
which will help through heavens door.
I pray to Almighty Allah everyday,
to guide the Muslim Ummah and not lead them astray. Poem by Sister Zainab Age 8

What do you see when you look at me,
What do you see when you look at me,
Do you see someone limited, or someone free,
All some people can do is just look and stare,
Simply because they cant see my hair,
Others think I am controlled and uneducated,
They are so thankful that they are not me,
Because they would like to remain “free”,
Well free isn’t exactly the word I would’ve used,
Describing women who are cheated on and abused,
They think that I do not have opinions or voice,
They think that being hooded isn’t my choice,
They think that the hood makes me look caged,
That my husband or dad is totally outraged,
All they can do is look at me in fear,
And in my eye there is a tear,
Not because I have been stared at or made fun of,
But because people are ignoring the One up above,
On the Day of Judgment they will be the fools,
Because they were too ashamed to play by their own rules,
Maybe the guys won’t think I am a cutie,
But at least I am filled with more inner beauty,
See I have declined from being a guy’s toy,
Because I won’t let my self be controlled by a boy,
Real men are able to appreciate my mind,
And aren’t busy looking at my behind,
Hooded girls are the ones really helping the Muslim cause,
The role that we play definitely deserves applause,
I will be recognized because I am smart and bright,
And because some people are inspired by my sight,
The smart ones are attracted by my tranquility,
In the back of their mind they wish they were me,
We have the strength to do what we think is right,
Even if it means putting up a life long fight,
You see we are not controlled by a mini skirt and tight shirt,
We are given only respect, and never treated like dirt,
So you see, we are the ones that are free and liberated,
We are not the ones that are sexually terrorized and violated,
We are the ones that are free and pure,
We’re free of STD’s that have no cure,
So when people ask you how you feel about the hood,
Just sum it up by saying “baby its all good”.

Is femanism Allowed in Islam
In Islam there is no femanism (nor maleism) because firstly there is no competition between the two sexes in Islam. The rules by which a muslim women and a Muslim man has to follow come From Allah who made both women and men. Problem with non Muslims in understanding this is because they look at this from their own beliefs. In western christian belief God is a man with a big beard. So they think a man god made these rules. In Islam God is neither male nor Female. There is nothing comparable to Allah and Allah is just.
