After Islam began in the 600s, life for women actually improved in contrast to other societies of the time. The Qur'an declared the equality of men and women before Allah. It allowed women to control their personal money and property after marriage and also declared the man's obligation to provide for his wife. Women were in charge of the children and the home.
