So just in case you don’t know, yes, women do have rights in Islam.
Unfortunately not many people talk about it. Not quite sure why. But here are a wifes rights according to Islam:
-Her husband must give her dowry. She may ask for anything from money, house, car, clothes, etc. If he doesn’t give dowry, the marriage is not valid.
-She has the right to choose whether she wants to work or not. Her husband cannot ask her to join the workforce, that is a sin for him.
-He cannot ask her to assist pay bills, even if she is making more money than him.
-It is the man’s duty to be the provider for both his wife’s and children’s expenses.
Any financial help that she chooses to provide is actually considered a favor. She is not required to help financially at all, even if she does work. Not following these rules may result him to going to hell. What is your opinion on this?
For more information, you can watch his video. It’s very interesting. This Islamic scholar says that Muslim women have been complaining that their husbands are now asking them to get jobs. Which is making it difficult to manage children/family life.
