International Women's Day and the place of women in Islam:

International Women's Day was first observed in 1914, but the study of Islamic history to protect women's rights took place about fourteen hundred and fifty years ago. Islam has given women status in the form in which she is. If she is a mother, then heaven will be under her feet. If a woman is in the form of a daughter, she has her place and if she is a wife, she has a separate place. In those days women were considered a symbol of hatred, and regret was expressed over the birth of a daughter. Rather, the daughters were buried alive. In such an age, the universal teachings of Islam seem to promote women's dignity and at the same time protect women's rights.

Islam is the only religion that has taken a woman out of humiliation and humiliation and given her the honor of humanity whereas in other religions before Islam woman was considered as a symbol of humiliation, disgrace, and contempt.

They are a dress for you (man) and you are clothing (vestment) for them, (Qur’an, 2:187).

Narrated Abdullah bin Umar:

Allah's Messenger (PBUH) said, Surely! Everybody of you is a guardian and is responsible for his charges: The Imam (ruler) of the people is a guardian and is responsible for his subjects; a man is the guardian of his family (household) and is responsible for his subjects; a woman is the guardian of her husband's home and his children and is responsible for them, and the slave of a man is a guardian of his master's property and is responsible for it. Certainly, everybody of you is a guardian and responsible for his charges.

The point is that there are a large number of such injunctions in the Qur'an and Hadith. This determines the status, importance, and rights of women in Islam.
