The jewels from the stories of women in the Quran

Author: Fayez bin Saeed Al-Zahrani Brief about the book: One of the major issues in which Western civilization has gone astray and misled in defining woman: Who is she? What is God's right upon her? What is her role in life? What are her responsibilities? What is the difference between her and man? And what is her relationship with him? And what is her position in married life? And the result of this misguidance was dangerous, as it affected important principles in the laws, nullified them, and attacked the clear texts of religion, breaking them. And the Noble Quran came with the best definition of woman, the most beautiful and complete, honored her and elevated her status, and answered her old and contemporary questions. It adopted several methods for this, including stories of women whom Allah chose to be good role models for believers, from past nations and from this nation. Each story carries lessons and concepts that must be understood and acted upon. With all these stories, the believing woman can elevate her understanding of womanhood because they are divine stories, and Allah the Most High only reveals the best stories in narration, lesson, and benefit. This book reviews those Quranic answers to women's questions through reading the stories of women in the Quran and drawing lessons and concepts embedded within them.
