Islam teachings per Quran and prophet Muhammad (PBUH) Sunnah (sayings and practices) treat women equally and complementary to men. They are even prioritized than men and said by prophet Muhammad (PBUH) that the paradise is under the feet of mothers. Prophet taught his followers to treat their wives and mothers kindly, nicely, and with modesty. Islam had given the women all their human rights that just were recognized recently by the UN and other religions. Muslim women have the right to work, to choose their own husbands, to sign contracts and to have their own properties and earnings.

Answer:

The following principles are true about women in Islamic law:

1) A woman does not become the property of her husband at marriage. The proof of that is that a Muslim woman should not change her last name ever. She has her own identity.

2) A woman has the right to inherit wealth and own property or have a career.

3) A woman can not be forced to marry a man she does not want.

4) A woman has the right to divorce her husband.

5) A woman can be a scholar.

6) A woman is not obligated to do the housework. If she does do it, it is a charity on her part. But if her husband is wealthy enough to hire a maind, she can insist that he does so.

7) A woman can not be mistreated by her husband. She can not be beaten (the verse people use to say that she can is not understood properly. In the case that a woman is making a lot of trouble for her husband and children, her husband can make contact with her physically - like grabbing - in order to get her to settle down. In all cases, this contact must not be so tough as to leave any mark on her).

How are muslims treated in foreign countries?

In most democratic countries, Muslims are treated exactly like any other citizen or visitor to that country, they are free to worship, dress as they wish and have full rites in law equal to everyone else.It must however be pointed out that these freedoms are not reciprocated in all Muslim countries at present, where believers in other faiths are currently being attacked and people can not dress as they wish. This is a shame because the Muslim faith requires tolerance of other faiths, especially those of the book.
