WOMAN BETWEEN ISLAM AND WESTERN SOCIETY
1995 3-4 May-June 8 WOMAN BETWEEN ISLAM AND WESTERN SOCIETY (106) By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan
The status of woman in Islam is the same as that of man. Injunctions about honour and respect enjoined for one sex are enjoined equally for the other sex. So far as rights in this world and rewards in the Hereafter are concerned, there is no difference between the sexes. In the organization of daily living, both are equal participants and partners. Yet Islam sees man as man and woman as woman and, considering the natural differences, it advocates the principle of the division of labour between the two sexes rather than the equality of labour.
