Anâs Radhi-Allâhu 'anhu reports that Nabî Sallallâhu 'alayhi wasallam has said: "From among the women of the world who have reached perfection and who are worthy of following are (the following four):
Miryam the daughter of Imrân;
Khadija daughter of Khuwailid;
Fatima daughter of Muhammad
and Asiyah wife of Fir'aun" (Tirmidhi)

The Qur’an states categorically that men and women who practice the principles of Islam will receive equal reward for their efforts. (Qur’an 33:35).

In the first verse of the chapter entitled An-Nissa’ (The Women), Allah says:

“O mankind! Be careful of your duty to your Lord Who created you from a single soul and from it its mate and from them both have spread abroad a multitude of men and women. Be careful of your duty toward Allah in Whom you claim (your rights) of one another, and towards the wombs (that bore you). Lo! Allah has been a Watcher over you.” (Qur’an 4:1)

The Qur’an states:

“By the creation of the male and female; Verily, (the ends) ye strive for are diverse.” (Qur’an 92:3-4)

In these verses, Allah declares that He created men and women to be different, with unique roles, functions and skills. As in society, where there is a division of labor, so too in a family; each member has different responsibilities. Generally, Islam upholds that women are entrusted with the nurturing role, and men, with the guardian role. Therefore, women are given the right of financial support.

Last night, The Sheikh said that the best of guide in family is woman.
She is the queen in the family.
She is the maker in the family.
She takes care of the family.

Man is always out side from home. Man is 711. He works from 7 am to 11 pm.
He never sees the children.
He only meets the family on holiday.

There is hadith:
Hadith - Al-Tirmidhi #3254, Narrated Anas ibn Malik
Allah's Messenger said, "When a woman observes the five times of prayer, fasts during Ramadan, preserves her chastity and obeys her husband, she may enter by any of the gates of Paradise she wishes." [AbuNu'aym transmitted it in al-Hilyah.]

The woman says the first three is easy to do. Only the last one that is very difficult to do, because the problem is in her husband himself.

The lecture finished because the pizza was coming.
All the women in the masjid laughed.

What do you think, my sisters in Islam?
Can we do all the four things above? Insha Allah, we can.

May Allah help us to do all the good deeds. Ameen.
