Best Answer

Most Muslim cultures are dominated by traditionalists who are very conservative about gender roles: they would say the man is supposed to provide for the woman, and that the woman should remain in the home. But in the Holy Qur'an, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) married Khadijah, who was, by all accounts, a successful and widely-admired businesswoman. It is reported that she helped to financially support his work, as he preached and promoted Islam.

Many modern Muslims, especially in western countries, believe that it is acceptable for a woman to have a career or for a daughter to attend a university, but the idea of the woman supporting the man is still not accepted (in fairness, it is also stigmatized in other religions). Clearly, the ideal would be for each partner in a marriage to contribute as best they can, and while some people prefer traditional gender roles, there is no reason why the wife cannot participate in decision-making about finances or about anything else in the marriage. And it should also be noted that in a good marriage, both the husband and wife provide for each other's emotional, spiritual, and sexual well-being.
