I read that one of the signs of judgement day is women being subordinates to their husbands.

Fatwa 256English
PurityMenstruation

Question

Does this mean that women have no value in Islam?

Answer

Kindly refer to our article, 'Equality and Status of Woman in Islam' at http://www.jamiat.org.za/isinfo/ewomen.html

The purpose of Hijaab is not to frustrate a female. It is to protect her chastity. She may exit her house and visit friends and family, etc. To frustrate a female by closing by closing her in the house all day long is un-Islamic.

And Allah Taãla Knows Best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
