THE WORTH OF WOMEN IN ISLAM Verse 35

      When ASMÄ, the wife to JAAFAR-IBN-ABITALIB, returned to Medina after their first emigration to ABYSSINIA (ETHIOPIA), she asked Moslems, if there had revealed anything about women. The answer was, ``NO''.

      So she said to the prophet:- ``Women are afflicted with loss and shortage!'' The prophet said to her:- ``Why do you think so?''

      She said:- ``Because they have not been qualified by any exalted merits, and virtues, through the Holy Qurän as men are.''

      The Messenger of God assured her that it was not so as she had thought, and both sexes are equal in value and dignity in the doctrine of Islam; and God looks after men and women with the same eye of Mercy and Grace. The most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is the most virtuous of you, who avoid evil.

      Then the above verse is said to have been revealed on this occasion.
