58+ Islamic Quotes About Women

Islam has given a special status for women in religion which has to be followed by every worshipper of Islam. In the previous era of illiteracy people of Arab had taken the status of women so lightly and had ordered to kill the newborn daughter, there was no self-respect for women. When Islam shows the precious status of women through the holy book verses or also great gestures by the Prophet of Islam our Holy Prophet P.B.U.H. He respected women and also told every other worshipper to follow the law of Islam to respect women.

Today, it is quite disheartening to see that some parents rejoice when the newborn child is a male and show their dissatisfaction when the child is a female. But, this should not be the attitude. Islam does not condone this type of behavior, as such was the manner of the parents in the time of ignorance.

In pre-Islamic times, the Arabs used to be disheartened and annoyed with the birth of girls, so that a father, when informed his wife had given birth to a girl, said, “By Allah, she is not as blissful as a son; her defense is crying and her care is but stealing!”

From the verses of the Quran, we see that women are so much respected.

Still today the status of women in some Islamic countries is quite controversial and disrespectful. So female populations have started slogans and organizations in the name of feminism in which they want equal rights as the male population, but few of them forgot the etiquettes of Islam, some slogans are quite controversial and they are against Islam. All we have to read is the whole status of women in accordance with Islam.

We have collected some verses of the Quran about Islamic quotes about women and also we have a collection of quotes of some scholars talking about the status and rights of Muslim women.
