Explanation:
Prior to the birth of the Prophet Muhammad the Arabs were seen as barbaric people who would marry their own mothers after their fathers death. Some tribes out of sheer shame of a girls birth would bury her alive. They drank heavily and thought the best amongst them was the one who could drink the most.
Women had no right of inheritance or divorce, slavery was common. They were known for their ignorance so much so that the 2 great powers surrounding Arabia; the Roman and the Persian Empires thought it useless a waste of time to conquer this barbaric land.
The Holy Prophet was commanded by God to raise the status of women to such a extent that a follower of Prophet Muhammad said what rights have you given to our women, first they use to listen and obey without any hesitation. Now they look at us and talk back to us. The prophet said I have come to give women their right.
Islam allowed women to inherit and have their own wealth. Islam taught that paradise lies under the feet of thy mother. That education is an obligation for both men and women. Women can divorce their husbands on their own choice.
That there is no compulsion in relgion.
what pleases Allah is the Freeing of Slaves.
That men and women are the same in the eyes of God. Reward for women is the same as for a man. It taught equality, spirituality both men and women can rise to the same height as each other.
The Prophet said the best amongst you is the one who treats his wife best.
