The knowledge that their lives are in greater danger than they may have hitherto realized will likely cower the majority of women and girls in the short term, so they would be less ready to act overtly against their oppressors. But in the long run it would also instill in large portion of them increased conviction that Islam is rotten, wicked and incompatible with making the life of women and girls more bearable, and would thus promote widespread social rot in Islamic society by making half the population sullenly resentful, and always on the look out for any opportunity for passive resistance and deniable sabotage of all aspect of Islamic social and culture life in which women takes part either directly or indirectly.
In the long run, the alienation of womenfolk from the hope of improvement in their lives will undoubtedly harm Islam's effectiveness as sustainable conservative cultural force far more than girl's education could ever have.
