Islam and Woman

In the 7th Islamic Women had not legal status in other cultures, including the West, until end of centuries. The dowry were a bride-price paid to the father, became a nuptial gift retained by the wife as part of her personal property."^[11][14]

In the past Islamic marriage was not a "status" but was a "contract", in which woman imperative.^[11][13][14] "Women were given inheritance rights in a patriarchal society that had previously restricted inheritance to male relatives."^[11] Annemarie Schimmel states that "compared to the pre-Islamic position of women, Islamic legislation meant an enormous progress; the woman has the right, at least according to the letter of the law, to administer the wealth she has brought into the family or has earned by her own work."^[15]

William Montgomery Watt explains: "At the time Islam began, the conditions of women were terrible - they had no right to own property, were supposed to be the property of the man, and if the man died everything went to his sons." Muhammad, however, by "instituting rights of property ownership, inheritance, education and divorce, gave women certain basic safeguards."^[16]

During his life, Muhammad married twelve women depending upon the differing accounts of who were his wives.^{[17][18][19][20]}

In contrast with the Western world where divorce was uncommon until day times, and in contrast to the low rates of divorce in the modern Middle East, divorce was a more common occurrence in certain states of the late medieval Muslim world. In the Mamluk Sultanate and Ottoman Empire, the rate of divorce was higher than it is today in the modern Middle East.^[36]

In 15th century Egypt, Al-Sakhawi recorded the marital history of 500 women, the largest sample on married women in the Middle Ages, and found that at least a third of all women in the Mamluk Sultanate of Egypt and Syria married more than once, with many marrying three or more times. According to Al-Sakhawi, as many as three out of ten marriages in 15th century Cairo ended in divorce.^[37] In the early 20th century, some villages in western Java and the Malay peninsula had divorce rates as high as 70%.^[36]
