As Ramadan reaches Day 23 and #RamadanDailyDigest continues to highlight different topical discourses, Muslims around the world continue to increase their acts of worship, charity, and reflection during the blessed final nine or ten nights. Among the many important discussions in Ramadan is the role, dignity, and rights of women in Islam. The holy month of Ramadan provides an opportunity to reflect on how Islam honours women spiritually, socially, and morally. The teachings found in the Glorious Qur'an and the guidance of the Prophet of Allah ﷺ stress that women are equal participants in acts of worship and essential contributors to the strength of families and communities. Just as Allah will ask men about what they did on earth on the Day of Resurrection, Allah will question women too. Spiritual Equality in Worship Islam makes it crystal clear that both men and women share equal spiritual responsibility and reward.
