Rights of Women in Islam

It is an assumption that women are suppressed one in Islam,but it is totally contrary to QURAN as Quran has gifted women with immense rights.i.e it is an assumption that women have to marry according to their parents wishes but Quranically and Islamically women is free to marry with the person of her choice, for example Hazrat Fatima Zehra the beloved daughter of Prophet Mohammad was given complete freedom in case of her marriage, as she select Hazrat Ali as her choice from the long Que of people from Hijaz (now S. Arabia) so this sole example shows the wide range of women freedom in Islam...

Islamic law also gives women a right to property which other religions does not clearly state, their is a provision in Islamic law for the security of women in the form of Maher, during the time of her marriage, which she claims from her husband as security.

Prophet Mohammad has always encourage Education once he said "illm pane ke liye agar Chin bhi jana ho toh jayo" means to gain education if you have to go China than proceed, as China was very far from Arabia those days, which means if to gain education you have to cover long distance than cover it without any hassle and he has advocated education without any gender discrimination, which clearly means he has advocated women education as well, So right to women education is clearly mention in Islam, its all misinterpretation of Quran or Talibani version which hype such non-sense regarding Women education which is contrary to Islam.

And even Women have so much regard in Islam that once Prophet Mohammad said" Maa ke parion ke neeche Jannat hai" which means " the paradise lies under the feet of a mother" here if we interpret-ates then we come to conclude that Women as Mother is the source to paradise...
