About This Book

Men and women in Islam each carry duties that are not required of the other. Men, for example, are required to pray in congregation and to provide for their families. Women have their own responsibilities, such as wearing hijab and raising children while the men are out working. The book presents this as a fair distribution of roles between the two.

The Choice of Every Woman asks each woman to decide whether she will follow ideas and values devised by people or what her Lord has commanded. It explains the duties of both husband and wife and shows how keeping to them can prevent many of the problems that arise in married life.
