Training Kit on Women and Their Status in Islam
Islam honoured women since the spread of the Islamic call at the hands of our master Muhammad, peace be upon him, and took us out of pre-Islamic beliefs such as the burying of daughters alive and depriving them of inheritance. Before Islam, society viewed women merely as slave girls to be bought and sold, possessing no freedom of their own whatsoever. Then Islam came and honoured her, and she gained the right to testimony and inheritance.
The Origin of the Word 'Woman' and Its Linguistic and Technical Definition
The origin of the word 'imra'ah' (woman) is the feminine of 'man'.
A woman is an adult human female, just as a man is an adult human male, and the word is used to distinguish the biological difference between members of the two sexes, male and female.
A woman is an adult human female, and the word "woman" is usually reserved for an adult female, while the word "girl" is used for female children who have not yet reached adulthood.
