Rights of Women in Islam! part one

As salam alekum wa rehmatillahi wa barkatahu

(May peace, blessings, and mercy of Allah (swt) be on all of you)  

 

            Women Rights in Islam are reviewed by two sources Al Qura’n and Hadith which never contradict each other. Many people have different prospective and differences which can be eradicated by using the quotations of Qura’n and Hadith. A Muslim should show gratitude towards Allah (swt) and should seek pleasure. Islam believes in equality of both men and women. However, equality doesn’t mean identicality. The character of a man and a woman in Islam is to be approving of one another. Because a man and a woman are partners no one can be noticeable for supremacy. Furthermore, men and women are companions of one and other.

Pillars of Islam

In Islam, Muslims have to take shahada, pray 5 times a day, give zakat (giving charity to the poor and needy), Sawm (Fasting in the month of Ramadan), and pilgrimage to Mecca.

Athan (Azan)- Call to Prayer

       Athan (Azan) means call to Prayer. 

Namaz- The Prayer

          As Muslims we all know, we have to pray five times a day. This is for those who is having a hard time finding the Prayers which are performed in a certain order. Offering salat (The prayer) is the most important and it is one of the five pillars. Therefore, Salat is the most virtuous of all the different acts of ibaadah (worship).

Our Best Friend- Quran

As salam alekum wa rehmatillahi wa barkatahu

(May peace, blessings, and mercy of Allah (swt) be upon all of you)

Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam) said: “When a man dies and his relatives are busy in funeral, there stands an extremely handsome man by his head. When the dead body is shrouded, the man gets in between the shroud and the chest of the deceased.

When after the burial, the people return home, 2 angels, Munkar and Nakeer(names of two special Angels), come in the grave and try to separate this handsome man so that they may be able to interrogate the dead man in privacy about his faith. But the handsome man says, “He is my companion, he is my friend. I will not  leave him alone in any case. If you are appointed for interrogation, do your job. I cannot leave him until I get him admitted into Paradise.”

Thereafter he turns to his dead companion and says, “I am the Qur’an, which you used to read, sometimes in a loud voice and sometimes in a low voice. Do not worry. After the interrogation of Munkar and Naker, you will have no grief.” When the interrogation is over, the handsome man arranges for him from Al-Mala’ul A’laa (the angels in Heaven) silk bedding filled with musk. Rasulullah (Sallallahu alaihe wasallam) said: “On the Day of Judgement, before Allah, no other Intercessor will have a greater status than the Qur’an, neither a Prophet nor an angel.”

May Allah bestow his favour on all of us.

Ameen!
