Abstract
It is the law of Allah that Muslim Ummah would be the best Ummah of the world, who order goodness and halt evils, who will spread the message of Allah to each corner of the world who will strive to make Islam dominant religion of the world. Such a nation should be example of unity and discipline. This Ummah should be exemplary in its action and views for all nations. Islam is a live religion and perfect system of life. It gives such a balance philosophy of life which fills human heart with spiritual strength and joys. Islam doesn't teach seclusion, it teaches to take advantage of bounties of Allah with all its beauty and sophistication. Men and women compliment each other, they are life partners, and companion at equal level. However Islam draws a line between their field of work and responsibilities. The basic field of man is outside and women's field is inside the home. The purpose of this division is not in any sense of discrimination; the purpose of this division is to save gender characteristics of both. As far as levels in religion are concerned men and women, both are kept on two levels: one is ordinary and the other is special level. Ordinary level is the level which is due for every women, she should pay the rights of Allah and his people as ordered by Allah. She should fight against evil thinking and satanic instincts in her personal capacity. She should prefer eternal life over this worldly attraction. Second duty of women is training and guidance of her children, every woman at last become a mother and mother has very deep relation with her children and this relation can be destructive and constructive, being a Muslim it is the duty of women to make this relation constructive and use it for the reformation of society. Third, this is a compulsion for woman she should not create problem for her husband and family. Usually women create unnecessary trouble for husband and family which destroy peace at home and home feels like a desert. If women just maintain peace at home this is a big job. If women have more talent and qualities then she can go ahead to exploit her talent which is called special level and one example of special level is daughter of our beloved Prophet Mohammad S.A.W "KHATOON E JANNAT" Hadhrat Fatima R.A.
