00:00:04 --> 00:00:07
			Let's discuss the economic rights
for men in Islam.
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:14
			Islam gave woman economic rights
1300 years before the Western
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:18
			world, and adult woman is allowed
to own or dis own a property
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:23
			without the permission of anyone.
This light was given to her 1400
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:28
			years ago, the first time in the
western world that a woman was
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:32
			allowed to own all this own
property without the permission of
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:37
			her husband was in England in
1870, or the married woman
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:43
			properties Act. In Islam, if a man
does work, and a similar sort of
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:48
			work is done by the woman, she's
entitled for the equal pay. There
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:52
			is no text in the Glorious Quran,
or in the authentic hadith, which
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:58
			prevents a woman from doing any
lawful work. The point to be noted
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:01
			is that the work she does, it
should be within the purview of
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:05
			the Islamic Sharia, she should
maintain her job and modesty.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:10
			We want a woman to take up
professions such as doctors,
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:15
			gynecologists, nurses, etc. If I
want my mother, if I want my
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:19
			sister to maintain her job, and if
I want to take her to a lady
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:24
			doctor, we should see to it that a
woman fought to become doctors.
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:30
			The other noble professions are
professions such as teaching, all
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:34
			factions which involve the
exploitation of a woman's body are
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:39
			completely prohibited. For
example, dancing, modeling,
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			singing, etc.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:45
			All these professions are
prohibited in Islam for the woman.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:51
			Many jobs many professions which
are prohibited for the woman are
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:56
			even prohibited for the man, for
example, working in alcohol bars,
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:59
			in gambling dens, in dishonest
businesses.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:04
			In Islam, it is not the duty of
the woman to look after the
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:09
			financial aspects. It is the duty
of the man to look after the
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:10
			financial aspects.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:16
			And before marriage is the duty of
the Father and the brother to look
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:21
			after the financial aspects. And
after marriage is the duty of the
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:26
			husband and the son to look after
the lodging, boding clothing and
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			financial aspects.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:33
			In Islam, a woman need not work.
But if both the ends don't meet,
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:37
			and if she wasn't, we will choose
to work. She may work, but no one
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:42
			can force her. And she can take
our professions to the spot we
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:47
			weaving, knitting. And she can
also work in office where there's
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:53
			proper segregation of sexes. She
can also work in a factory where
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:57
			there are different provisions for
a man and a woman. And she can
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:01
			also do a business but if she has
to deal with the nominee ram it is
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:05
			preferable through her madam that
is the husband, her father, her
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:06
			brother, her son.
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:12
			And in Islam, a woman is
financially more secured as during
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:17
			marriage, she's on the receiving
end. And Allah subhanaw taala says
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:20
			in the Glorious Quran into the
Nyssa chapter number four was
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:20
			number four,
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:23
			what to Nyssa
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:30
			and give the woman their power as
a free gift. And in Islam for mild
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:36
			to Sol mais Mohair is compulsory
is the man who gives the Dawa to
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:40
			the would be wife in India, it is
exactly the opposite. It is the
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:45
			woman will give the Dawa to the
would be husband and bending upon
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:49
			status. If the man is a graduate,
he may demand one lakh rupees. If
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:52
			he's an engineer, he may demand
five lakh rupees. If he's a
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:56
			doctor, he may demand 10 lakh
rupees, as the characters and
		
00:03:56 --> 00:04:01
			herds are sold in the marketplace
demanding dowry directly or
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:05
			indirectly from the would be wife
is completely prohibited in Islam.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:10
			The parents of the groom cannot go
and tell the parents of the bride
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:13
			that you know my son he likes to
travel in the Mercedes car
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:18
			indicating that I want a Mercedes
car for dowry. You cannot go and
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:21
			tell that you know my son he likes
to live in a four bedroom
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:25
			apartment indicating that I want a
four bedroom apartment in dowry.
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:31
			Demanding dowry directly or
indirectly from the would be bride
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:36
			is completely prohibited. And
willingly if the parents of the
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:40
			bride want to give you something
you can very well accepted but
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:44
			demanding dowry directly or
indirectly is completely
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			prohibited.
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:51
			And in Islam, irrespective whether
the husband is rich or poor, it is
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:56
			his duty to look after the lodging
bolding, clothing and financial
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			aspects of the wife
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:00
			in a slot
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			Um, a woman may also work. She may
also do a business, but she did
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:10
			not spend a single penny on her
lodging, boarding clothing and
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:15
			financial aspects. She may keep it
for himself is the husband in the
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:17
			family who's supposed to look
after that?
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:23
			And in Islam, if a woman gets
widowed or if the walls takes
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:27
			place, she receives financial
support for the period of ADA.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:32
			That is a waiting period. And if
she's pregnant, she receives it
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:36
			for the delivery. And if she has
children, she receives it for the
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:36
			children.
