Women Empowerment

A woman has as much right as a man on Allah and His love, the Holy Prophet and his love and the acquisition of knowledge of Islam. She must also progress on the path of gnosis of Allah like men.

In Sufism, the term 'man' signifies a quality rather than physical appearance. It represents attributes of dignity and strength, which can be found in both males and females. The path of Allah is adopted and travelled only by the real man (whether male or female). On this basis, many males are actually females and many females are males.

If a woman becomes a hurdle in the way of Faqr then she is a devil as Satan claims women as his weapon. However, if a woman follows sharia and the path of Faqr and assists a man in following Faqr then she is a true believer of Islam.

Fatimah-tuz-Zahra and Rabia of Basra reached such exalted heights of Faqr that even men are reluctant to attain. Sultan Bahoo has also recognized this fact.

Rabia of Basra reached the ultimate heights of Faqr which proves the fact that both men and women are equally capable of achieving success in this path.

Fortunate are the parents whose firstborn is a daughter.
