DOES ISLAM TREAT MEN AND WOMEN EQUAL?

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS.  Yaum al-ithnayn, 7th day of Dhul-QA^DAH. (Monday, 6th of June, 2022).

*_DOES ISLAM TREAT MEN AND WOMEN EQUAL?_*. BismilLah. 

Let's note that this word *_equality_* is a word which is based on deviation and a lack of understanding, especially when the speaker attributes this idea of equality to the Qur’an and to Islam. 

One of the things that people misunderstand is when they say that “Islam is the religion of equality”. What they should say is that Islam is the religion of justice. 

But if we say justice, which means giving each one that to which he or she is entitled, this misunderstanding no longer applies, and the word used is correct. Hence it does not say in the Qur’aan that ALLAAH enjoins equality, rather it says:

 “Verily, ALLAAH enjoins Al‑‘Adl (i.e. justice)”al-Nahl 16:90]. ALLAH says;

“and that when you judge between men, you judge with justice” al-Nisa’ 4:58.

*_May ALLAH keep guiding us all and increase us in beneficial knowledge_*. Aameen.
