Challenges Faced By Muslim Woman in the Western World

The western media often raises comments on the rights of Muslim
woman. They think that women are the most deprived. Muslim
woman are given proper guidance since 1400 years ago. The
questions raised on the integrity of Muslim woman will be discussed.

Hijab

Some people think that when women wears hijab she is being over
ruled and she has no freedom. Muslim woman is not an ordinary
woman. She keeps her head covered, as hair becomes a reason
of attraction to men. It has long lasting effects in this world and
hereafter as well. As in Quran and teachings of Holy Prophet
(P.B.U.H) Muslim woman are being told to cover themselves.
Muslim woman presents her as much beautifully as she can in front

wives. Therefore, it is only allowed to men to become polygamist if
the wife is sterile or unable to fulfill his rights in the bedroom. This
is an excellent approach to prevent adultery and illegal relationship
prevailing in the society.

Women are growing in number more as compared to men. In olden
times if the male died in war or due to natural causes the woman
were suppose to engage them to another wedlock with the man of
their choice. The widow, in that way could get their home, shelter,
protection and name of the man for herself and her children. In the
present era, if you look at the ratio of number of men and women
