Hadith About Women

Abu Huraira, God bless him, reported Allah's Apostle, Peace Be upon

Him, as saying: He who believes in Allah and the Hereafter, if he

witnesses any matter he should talk in good terms about it or keep

quiet. Act kindly towards woman, for woman is created from a rib,

and the most crooked part of the rib is its top. If you attempt to

straighten it, you will break it, and if you leave it, its crookedness

will remain there. So act kindly towards women.

This hadith is true and genuine as it was narrated by Abu Huraira, one of

the companions of the prophet (PBUH), his real name is Abd al-Rahman ibn

Sakhr Al-Azdi, he was known with his trustiness about the whole hadiths of the

prophet Mohammed (PBUH). he narrated around 5,375 hadith. A lot of the

scholars of Sunna consider Abu Hurairah to be one of the major trustworthy

narrators ofHadith, he spent about three years in the companion of the

prophet Mohammed (PBUH). He was born in Baha,Yemen. His father died

when he was young with his mother only without any relatives. In additionthat this hadith is registered in hadiths of two sheikhs (Muslim & Bukhari).

This hadith is directed to men in the society who are fathers, brothers and

husbands of women saying to them that if you believe in Allah and the

Hereafter, you shall treat women kindly and they shall give them their rights

because women are created from rib (Eva has been created from the Adam`s

rib) and the most un-straight point of this rib is its top, this means that the

actions and responses of women shall have some shortness and defects. Eva

was created from the rib of Adam but all of humankind is created from the

Womb of women. Women therefore deserve equal, if not greater, respect and

right than men in society.

This idea came from the bible as God said, "let us see Adam in our image,

in likeness of ourselves and let them be master of fish and sea. God created

Adam in an image of God, he created it male and female"

so men shall not be annoyed with women as they are weak but they shall

treat women kindly in order to have benefits from them. A woman is like a

rib. In case of men try to straighten it, they will break it. If men wish to

benefit from women, men can benefit from women in spite of their

crookedness. Some meaning of the word break is to divorce women in case

that they have husbands.

Women may make a lot of mistakes as they always forget as in their

witness in the court, the religion states that there must be two women in order

to witness for something inside the court. The best thing in order to deal with

women is through the use of kindness and quietness. It is worth mentioning

hat if you struggle with women, you will loss every thing as they are

distinguished with the stubborn so that men can have benefits from their

dealing with women, they shall treat them with kindness and easiness.

Men shall provide the advices and consultations to women because this is

considered the only way in order to correct their morals and their ethics.

Women have the attributes, capacities, predilections and dispositions of men,

therefore, she had the same moral and religious rights and duties.
