1. Women gen 1/2 of what a man gets in inheritance.
2. The testimony of 2 women equal of that of one man.
Quote:There is no injustice here, it is just a factQuote:It was narrated that ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Abbaas said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “I was shown Hell and I have never seen anything more terrifying than it. And I saw that the majority of its people are women.” They said, “Why, O Messenger of Allaah?” He said, “Because of their ingratitude (kufr).” It was said, “Are they ungrateful to Allaah?” He said, “They are ungrateful to their companions (husbands) and ungrateful for good treatment. If you are kind to one of them for a lifetime then she sees one (undesirable) thing in you, she will say, ‘I have never had anything good from you.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1052)
This particular hadeeth was actually one of the first to make me become skeptic because of the very obvious injustice.
It is like saying the crime rate in African American is higher than others; it is just a fact nothing more!
