Fariq Naik – Why are all the Messengers of Allah in Islam Males Are not Men and Women in Islam Equal

We will take the last question assalamualaikum My name is

Muhammad KEF I am a student of class 10 from India, Bihar Patna.

Why all the messengers of Allah in Islam are males is the no equality

in Islam between men and women. In Islam, men and women are equal.

Equality does not mean identical at men and woman. They are equal,

but they're not identical.

And Allah subhanaw taala has given each

person his own responsibility.

And there are a few reasons why Allah subhanaw taala did not

choose woman to be prophets or messengers of Allah subhanaw

taala.

And I'll just mention with you these reasons.

The first is that

there are various behavioral changes that take place in a

woman, for example, the menstrual cycle, the postnatal bleeding.

So in these situations, a woman her mental and physical state, it

is low,

she cannot do the role of a prophet, and she cannot fulfill

the responsibilities of a prophet.

Besides is the woman, she also has pregnancy.

And when she is a mother, she has to take care of her child or her

children at the early stages of life. In all of these situations,

a woman

She cannot do the role of a mother, whereas the same time do

the role of a prophet or a messenger of God and the prophet

or a messenger of God. He has to listen to the people, he has to

solve their disputes, when there is a dispute.

He has to mix around with the people

solving their problems, etc. In all of these situations, it will

not be appropriate for a woman to do this. Because in Islam, it is

clearly prohibited the intermingling of the opposite

gender, and the prophet or the messenger, he has to talk with the

people communicate with the people convey the message of Islam to the

non Muslims, if they have any problem, if they have any

questions, respond to their questions, etc. And one of the

roles of the prophet or the messenger of God is to lead the

people in prayer.

And there are various positions that we do in the prayer for

example, the Roku, the sudo, etc, the bowing, the prostration, etc.

And all of these positions if the woman she is an Imam, she is the

leader is to distract the people behind the macdaddy the people who

are offering Salah behind the Imam to distract them if the woman is

the Imam. That is the reason slam a woman cannot lead the men in

prayer.

So that's the reason there are certain responsibilities for the

woman and Islam. There are certain responsibilities for the men

and many times the woman she can get emotionally carried away if

there is a dispute, so she may emotionally get carried away.

And besides this,

I would like to give you an example.

If a robber enters the house, it is Allah subhanaw taala who has

given the man most strength, it is a man who will go and fight.

A person cannot say that I believe in equal rights. Let the woman go

and fight. Each person has his own responsibilities. Similarly, Allah

subhanaw taala has given a lot of honor to the woman when she's a

mother. And there are various Hadith talking about the

importance of motherhood and Islam. A man cannot say that I

want to become a mother so that I can get the reward of a mother,

but that should know each person has their own responsibility.
