The Importance of Education for Muslimas

Insha'allah, I will begin by discussing the importance of education for Muslimas, and then insha'allah, discuss the rights Muslimas are given in Islam.

Muslimas, it is vital and incumbent upon you to be educated in your din, or your faith and be educated in worldly affairs. Education can allow you to reach your goals and ambitions.

A sister once told me, "Its important for you to know your din, so someone doesn't pull the wool over your eyes!".

This is so important for young Muslimas to know especially. You must read your Qur'an and the Sunnah as if its the last thing you'll ever read. Have the Qur'an on your tongue and let it guide you throughout your life.

I see many sisters wanting to marry young and not know their Din. YOU MUST NOT get into a marriage if you don't know your din. How do you know the Brother will give you your rights if you don't know them?

Knowing our din is important. Insha'allah, I will begin telling you the rights of Muslim women in ISLAM.

Muslim Women are Given These:

1. Right to Inherit property
2. Right to choose her spouse
3. Right to keep her name in marriage
4. Right to be financially stable
5. Right to Divorce
6. Right to contract
7. Right to vote and speak her mind
8. Right to sexual satisfaction
9. Right to drive- Prophet Muhamamd(peace be upon him) told me to teach women to ride camels.
10. Right to birth a female child
11. Right to travel
12. Right to keep her own money
13. Right from defamation
14. Right to a dowry
15. Right to be treated as an equal to a man
16. Right to work
17. Right to Education

Insha'allah, I wish that any thing I mispoke about will be corrected by Allah. Insha'allah, sisters you need to read more about these rights and to memorize them and to understand them.

Masha'allah, there are many Muslimas that have written on these rights and have giving daa'wah about these rights.
