... Women have a high status in Islam but only as mothers. Discuss this view. In Islam, women and men are equal in terms of their relationship with Allah. It can be clearly seen that Allah has created men and women differently, this is so that they may fulfil different purposes in life. It is not a question of the superiority of one gender over another, rather it is a matter of role differentiation. Islam teaches that men and women complement one another and are both equally important. On the other hand, this is not the case is many cultures and traditions; before and after Islam, the status of woman throughout much of the world was appalling to the extent that they were even doubted women being human beings at all. They had no rights at all, and were treated worse than animals. However, their status was not as bad as it
