WHAT QURAN HAS REVEALED REGARDING WOMEN

Allah states in the Qur’ân: “And stay in your houses and do not display yourselves like that of the time of ignorance.”
(Surah Ahzab)

And at another place: “And tell the believing women to lower their gazes (from forbidden things) and protect their private parts and not to show off their adornments only that which is apparent.”
(Surah Nur)

In Surah Baqarah Allah has declared: “And the men have superiority over the women.” In other words, men are their guardian governors. The difference could be likened to the necessity of appointing a captain in a football team, where the captain is subjected to the same rules and privileges of his teammates. But a greater responsibility and a higher rank have been conferred upon him in order to maintain a proper system for the smooth running of the team.
