Islam - Elevation of Women’s Status By Shaykh Ali Al-Timimi
The topic that I was asked to discuss here at McGill University is the elevation of the status of women in Islam.
Many, upon hearing the title of this lecture, might assume it to be an oxymoron because the prevalent idea - at least in the West - is that Islam does not elevate the status of women, but that Islam oppresses and suppresses women. So people might find the title in itself to be shocking or a curiosity at least.
In discussing this topic - since it appears to me that this is a mixed audience of Muslims and non-Muslims - I'd like to make my remarks and comments brief. I will take no more than thirty to forty five minutes, and then allow you an opportunity to ask your questions. Perhaps the question and answer session might be more fruitful in addressing specific accusations, understandings or misunderstandings regarding the status of women in Islam.
As we all know, in the world today, there are - for the overwhelming majority of humanity - basically two world views.
These two views are often in conflict - not only on the personal level where individual human
beings are making choices, but also on the international level in terms of the debate over the authenticity and correctness of these two world views ....
