Islam has successfully brought the liberation of women from all the manacles. Islam not only supports the objectives of equality, development and peace for women but strongly promotes and stands for these rights. However, its approach towards the achievements of these objectives is holistic, not fragmentary. The Qur'an, the final and eternal guide of the mankind, makes it very clear that man and woman are two physical forms of the same soul. God declares in the very opening verse of the suitably entitled chapter Al-Nisa (Women): O men! Fear you Lord, Who created you from a single being and out of it created its mate; and out of the two spread many men and women. Fear Allah in Whose name you plead for rights, and heed the ties of kinship. Surely, Allah is ever watched over you (4:1). |

Islam holds that the real empowerment of woman is possible only through recognizing her balancing role and through utilizing appropriately her ability for the betterment of the whole society without damaging its moral and social fabric. Islam suggests an ideal combination of freedom and security that women should seek and which is in the best interest of society.
While there is presently prevalent rethinking on the role and status of women, it would be most appropriate to consider, without any partiality or prejudice, the Islamic point of view which has brought about the formation of healthy, happy and stable societies in vast areas of the world in the last fourteen centuries.

|

Social and family structures throughout the world have been crumbled down in to pieces and virtually a social anarchy prevails everywhere. Family structures and values have entirely ruined in the West and the sanctity of family and social relations have almost disappeared. But now, it is extremely painstaking that a community that had once shown the most successful culture and civilization to the world is now attempting to cope with western culture and thus the Islamic culture and values become unidentified even among Muslim countries.
Islam stands for bringing peace among minds, values among cultures, healthy relations among families and exceptional qualities among communities.
