ROLE OF WOMEN

If we read the Qur'an, then we can know that the creation of Prophet Adam. along with mother Eve, who serves as his wife and his life.
 
We know the story of Pharaoh's wife, who can prevent Pharaoh in his intention to kill Moses. As stated in the word of God Almighty.:

  
"And Pharaoh's wife said, '(He) eyeball  me and for thee. Do not kill him, hopefully he's useful for us or our  pick up a child, while they do not realize."(Al-Qashash Q.S.: 9).


 
We see the story in which there are two women in the city of Midian, both daughter Ash-Sheikh Al-Kabir, who were given drinking water by the Prophet Musa. Then the two women to propose to his father, in order to give employment to Prophet Musa. because he has a mandate (to trusted) and a strong physique. As stated in word of God Almighty.:

  
"One of the two women said,  'O My father, take him as a person  work (to us), because the real people  the best, you've taken to work  (to us) is a strong person and can be trusted '. "(Al-Qashash Q.s.: 26).
 
We see again the story of Queen Balqis in the country of Yemen, which fairly well known and has the soul of democracy. Queen is after received a letter from Prophet Sulayman. which it calls to obey Allah and worship Him, then he ask for opinions to his people and consulted for take a decision together.
 
Word of God Almighty.:

  
"Said he (Balqis), 'O the authorities, grant I in my consideration (this), I do not
  
never decide anything before you issue are in assembly (I). "
 
They said, 'We are the people who have strength and (also) have the extraordinary courage (In war), and decisions are in your hands, then consider that thou wilt command. '"(Qs An-Naml: 32-3).
 
Then he said, as Allah Sallahu 'Alaihi Wassalam had said:

  
"Behold the kings when entering a they would destroy the country, and
  
make respectable citizens who are so despicable; and so are they are going to do. "  (Q.s. An-Naml: 34).
 
The conclusions of these opinions is that the queen rulers in this world if they want to master the a country, then they will damage the two terms, namelydestroy the state and moral citizens.
 
Therefore, in the Qur'an has mentioned the names of women than the women mentioned above, that has to do with the story of each. For example, the mother of Prophet Isa, Maryam Al-Batoul.
 
 

ROLE OF WOMEN IN THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD SAW.
 
The role of women in his lifetime the Prophet. which we know is that maintaining the Prophet, namely Aminah His mother, a nurse, Halima As-Sa'diyah; and thebecome hadina (nanny) for him, Umm Ayman ra of Habasyah.
 
Prophet. hath said, "That she is my mother after my own mother. "
 
Then we know Siti Khadijah bint Khuwailid ra,the first woman to believe and help him, Siti Aisyah,Umm Salamah, and others, from Ummahaatul Mukmtniin (Mother of the believers), the Prophet's wives, and wives the Companions of the Prophet.
 
 

NOW THE WOMEN'S ACTIVITIES

Actually, the business (gait) include ample women various fields, especially those associated with him own, which are aligned with Islam, in terms of belief,morals and issues that do not deviate from what is already outlined or defined by Islam.
 
Moslem woman has a duty to strengthen relationship with God and purify the mind and disposition of the remains of the influence of Western thought.
 
Must know how to fend off the attacks of evil and syubuhat against Islam.
 
You must know and realize the things background, why he should receive half ofsection received by men in rights issue inheritance? Why is the witness of a woman is considered half from men? Also must understand its nature, so thathis Islamic faith and clean, there is no doubt that enveloped the minds and thoughts.
 
He should run as a whole about the character and behavior, in accordance with desired by Islam. It should not be influenced by the attitudes and behavior of women sensible non-Muslims or the West. Because they are free from minds and regulations as exist in Islamic religion. They are not tied to the case of halal andforbidden, good and bad.
 
Many of the women who imitate them blindly, for example, lengthen the nail that resembles a wild animal, mini dress, sheer (transparent), or half-naked, and so forth. Such a way that is impersonating the blind in the things forbidden.
 
Prophet. has said:

  
"Do not be people who do not have establishment and said, 'I'm just like those people. If they are good, I was good; if they're bad, I was so malicious. " But firm your heart with the decision that if those who do good, then I will do it, and if people do crime, then I would not do. "
 

 ROLE OF WOMEN IN FAMILIES
In the Qur'an has been set, all the determination and commands addressed to both parties, men and women, unless a special for one of the two. Thus, obligation for women in the family is perform what is obligatory for him.
 
If she as a child, then both parents or one only deviate from the limits set byreligion, then in a polite and wise, she should invite her parents back on the road is good, which has become a religious purpose, in addition to respecting both parents.
 
Compulsory for every woman (his wife), which helps her husband in running the commands of religion, seeking sustenance lawful, accept and be grateful she had with full of patience, and so forth.
 
Obliged also to any mother, teaching her children to obey to God, by Him and away from ban His run command, and obey the second parents.
 
The obligation for every woman to his friends who same religion, namely faith and advocate for clean her tauhid of influence outside of Islam, away from notions that are damaging and destroying Islamic joints and a noble character, it receives through the book, magazines, films, and so forth.
 
With the actions outside of Islam, which posed by some Muslims towards womenless wise and aware, then it is this which causes character of those in Western civilization and its faith.
 
It must be admitted, that the rights of women in some communities Islam has not given in full.
 
Should note also, that the first voice of women in strengthening the mission and message of Muhammad PBUH. is Khadijah bint Khuwailid voice r.a. the Messenger of Allah.:

  
"By God, God will not disappoint you altogether. Surely you formed friendships,
  
contact family and lift heavy loads, giving to people who do not have, receive
  
and give (respect) to the guests, as well as help people who suffer. "
 
The first person who acts as a martyr is Umm Amr bint Amar Ibn Yasir named Samiah, he was with her husband was tortured, so they come out of the religion of Islam. But they continue to survive and wait, so he's dead martyr with her husband.
 
When the Messenger of Allah. across them, and seeing them in a state of torture, then the Messenger of Allah. said to them, "Be patient, O Al-Yasir, actually we will meet in heaven. "
