The Political Aspect (a) Equal participation in public affairs Adam and Eve: Gender Equality Equality in Practice/ Practical Equality Plain reading of Quran and Hadith and its consequences on Gender equality Conservativeness regarding Gender Equality and Islamic Interpretation Conclusion Introduction Gender equality means that the behaviour, aspirations and needs of women and men are equally valued and met. All human beings are born free and equal. One basic element in the value system of Islam is the principle of equality.This value of equality is not to be mistaken for or confused with identicalness or stereotype. Islam teaches that in the sight of Allaah Almighty, both genders are equal, but there are differences of abilities, potentials, ambitions, wealth and so on. Yet, none of these differences can by themselves, establish the status of superiority of a man over a woman. The only distinction, which Allaah recognizes is the distinction in piety. In the Quran, Allaah Almighty Says (what means): "O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female, and have made you into nations and tribes, that you may know one another. Indeed the most honored of you in the sight of Allaah is the most righteous. Indeed, Allaah is Knowing and Acquainted" Before Islam Condition of women was miserable as she treated badly like an slave. she was dependent and her personal consent considered unimportant. she was not regarded human being but as a sort of sub-species between human and animal. Islam Gives a new lease of life to women. Like man their rights were also well defined. In many instances Islam treats women equals to men as Equality in Basic Humanity,Religious Obligations, Employment, Rewards and Punishments, Preservation of Honor and Nobility,Financial Dealings and Property Ownership, Education, Social Responsiblities, Right to Receive Fair Share of Wealth, Right of inheritance,Right to choose spouse. Moreover, the concept of gender equality is best exemplified in the Quranic rendition of Adam and Eve. Mystical readings of the Quran is paramount to know the exact status of women in society. Fortunately, there is an emerging trend for the betterment of our understanding of gender equality, based on the Qur'an and Hadeeth, not on alien and imported un-Islamic values. Certainly Gender equality as outlined in the Quran must also be put into practice. Kindly evaluate my outline and introduction and highlight my mistakes |

Gender equality is a myth
After a lot of brainstorming I could only write a few points on the topic Gender Equality is a Myth. Kindly evaluate my attempt. INTRODUCTION _Gender equality in today’s world _A myth not reality A CRITICAL ANALYSIS _ Celebrations: only on birth of baby boy _ Male: Decision making authority in family _ Female: A burden on her parents _ Unacknowledged efforts of women _ Women are not free to move _ Insecurity at Public Places _ Job Discrimination _Insecure Work Environment for women _Increasing crimes against women _ Plight of third gender STEPS TO CREATE EQUALITY AMONG GENDERS _ Equal Rights for Education _Equality in Career Advancement _ Equality in Freedom of Expression CONCLUSION INTRODUCTION In recent decades the issue of gender equality has gained much voice because of rising level of education and human rights awareness. Now we can see more women going for higher education as compared to a few decades ago. We can observe more women working as successful professionals. We can observe women participating in every walk of life. But despite all these changes, gender equality is still a myth. According to generally accepted view men are supposed to dominate and women are subservient. It is an attitude which makes the gender equality an unrealistic goal.

My dear Friends, I tried my best to attempt this essay. I made it within only 45 minutes. So, this is my weak attempt and you guys are highly appreciated to evaluate it and find out any kind of mistakes whether it be a grammatical or otherwise. Secondly, I took my stance against the topic i.e Gender Equality is not a myth.
Gender Equality is a myth Outline: 1. Introduction 2. Historical perspective 3. Reality of Gender Equality (a) Gender Equality in Islam i. GE as per Quran ii. GE as per Hadith iii. GE as per Prophet’s (PBUH) teachings iv. GE in Islamic Wars v. GE in socio-economic system of Islam (b) Gender Equality in Pakistan i. Constitution of Pakistan Guaranteed GE ii. A Clear manifestation of women’s participation in every field iii. Women’s Organizations iv. Government Support v. Laws in favour of Women (c) Gender Equality around the World i. United Nations Guaranteed Gender Equality in its Charter ii. Women’s are on key posts 4. Why Gender Equality is considered a Myth i. Unlettered People ii. Misinterpretation of Religious Teachings iii. Patriarchal Societies iv. Fear of Women’s dominance v. Traditional Customs 5. Suggestion 6. Conclusion Women have been considered as inferior creature in terms of intellect, physique, emotions etc since the time immemorial. Women are deprived of their basic rights not only in developing countries but also in the first world. People are of the opinion, in almost every revealed religion, that she is guilty of first crime committed by Adam. They also believe that she can not be given equal status as that of man in any way. However, this so-called believe is baseless in toto. Gender Equality is not only guaranteed in Islam but also in many well-developed and developing countries around the world. In Islam, there were so many women who used to do business. Hazrat Khadija, the wife of Prophet, is a case in point. On the other hand, there were also so many who used to participate in socio-economic activities. Similarly, In Pakistan, its constitution guarantees the equality of gender. In addition, United Nations also supports the cause of gender equality and has established numerous Non-Governmental Organizations working for Gender Equality. As matter of fact, question arises here that why people consider gender equality a myth. There are many reasons such as illiteracy, misinterpretation of religious teachings, women’s sensitive personality, fear of female dominance and whatnot. In fact, people need to change their mind that gender equality is not only a reality but also well-proven fact.

(D) Poverty. 8-Indeed, atittudes are changing. 9-Suggestions. (A) Women empowerment. (B) Education about gender equality. (C) Pragmatic and implementable laws regarded gender equality. 10-Conclusion. Introduction An impartial and evidence-based analysis of the current scenario proves it beyond doubt that despite rapid development of world gender inequality persists. Women are considered inferior to men, even in developed conuntries. They are subjected to such heinous crimes as sexual violence. Besides, they have to face many other forms of discrimination. So is the case of third gender. This pathetic reality of gender inequality is not a recent phenomena but has its roots in antiquity. Since ages humans are gauged on the basis of their gender affiliations. This undermines the natural justice which confers equal rights on all irrespective of gender. These equal rights are sense of self-worth; right to determine choices; equal right to have access to opportunities and resources; equal right to control their own lives; and setting free their abilities to influence the direction of social change. Islam bestows these all rights on both genders but the problem is of understanding the real Islamic teachings. Undoubtedly, the people are being persecuted on account of their gender accross the world. The bias against people on account of their gender ranges from discrimination in various spheres of life to illegal trafficking. The case of gender based inequality in Pakistan is even more worse. Women are killed for honor, sexually harrased, and denied their most fundamental right: education. The gender inequality is caused by stereotypes, illiteracy, misinterpretation of religious teachings and poverty. Indeed, attitudes are changing accross the world: women are becoming more vocal for their rights; stereotypes are diminishing steadily; many cultures now deem concepts encourage gender inequality baseless and unnatural; women are contributing effectively in social developments; their rights are being protected; and women are more empowered today then ever before. But still there is a lot to improve. Every step should be taken to empower women, educate people about gender equality, and making pragmatic laws to control gender based violece accross the world. It must not be forgotten that women have as much contribution in making the world as it is today as men have. Because a men alone cannot give birth to new humans and continue the surrvival of human race on this earth.

You have taken the case entirely in pro conditions and have explained them. Pro points and their explanation is very easy as you have made it. Why you haven't explained contadictory/misunderstandings and have justified them to make your piece of composition more analytical rather tha just pro descriptive explaining the points everybody knows. For instance: From the very first creation of Hazrat Adam and Hazrat Eve. How was their creation how Hazrat Adam was created and how Hazrat Eve was created. Justify the diference in modes of their creation to prove gender equality. Why hazrat Eve was not created first-justify it. Out of 124000 messenger have you ever heard a single women messenger. Why a single She was not made as messenger.Is it equality-justify it. Why their is difference between the proprtion in property. Why she is awarde lesser share than He. Is it equality-justify it. Why She has lesser power when it comes to evidence(shahidi).Is it equality-justify it. Why muta was allowed in Islam?was it in favour of She?justify it. Why a woman can not hold a position of Judge,as menstrual cycle makes she irritated and disturbs her decision makinig ability-justify it. Why a woman can not be the head of an Islamic state as this postion requires sometimes to meet and discuss critical issues with her counterpart in a closed private room-this is what Islam doesn't allow-any Muslim she to meet in such away with ger moharam mard-justify it To make your piece of composition analytical you must add such shades and if you remove and justify such contradictions/misunderstings with balance approach it will earn much. The things you have mentioned are known by everyone. What makes your piece of writing different? Quote:
Ground realities are more important than reference of literature. Why are hiding the facts,let me tell you. 10 best countries for women: The measure of well being include life expectancy,education,purcahsing power parity,health and standards of living. 1)Iceland 2)Norway 3)Australia 4)Canada 5) Ireland 6)Sweden 7)Switzerland 8) Japan 9)Netherland 10)France. Source: UNDP Gender-related development Index. Sorry state of affairs,not a single muslim country is included. Nevertheless we talk about literature. More interesting, 10 worst countries for woman contain almost Muslim countries-Pakistan,Afghanistan,Iraq,Saudi etc Source: UNDP Gender-related development Index. So plz be realistic, do not make the facts fly in realm of idealism. Last edited by Shooting Star; Wednesday, April 10, 2013 at 06:22 PM. Reason: merged |
