IMPORTANCE OF WOMAN Hidden inside the veil unbroken, Lies my soul still unspoken, Countless words still unsaid, Many thoughts still not expressed, I am an incomplete story, an unfinished song, I am an actor without a role, While walking on the road of life, I wait for my soul to be discovered, Until than this dejected soul lies in eternal torment.The above poem moved me. Yes, it did as it was a cry of a lonely, shattered and depressed woman. I was wondering we discuss politics, wars, racism, terrorism but have we ever given a little thought to “the importance of woman” .I guess no. Woman was created as a companion for man. The first woman Eve was made from Adam’s ribs not from his head to rule him or from his feet to serve him but from his side to wa Men and Infidelity lk with him as his equal, but what do we see today? We see woman as a second-class citizen. We often see them hopeless, destitute, wronged only because this world has stopped giving importance to the woman. Now let us the importance of woman in our society. She has been the torchbearer for centuries. She is responsible for the miracle of birth. In most cases she is also a provider of the family and the epitome and embodiment of morality. Woman is also responsible for the image of the society. It is the woman who is considered the guardian of the respect and honor of a family .Moreover God has already emancipated woman for no responsibility can be greater than that of continuing the cycle of life of birth. She is a mother, a sister, a daughter, a wife.

The literal meaning of Al-RIBA means to excess or increase. In the Islamic terminology, interest means effortless profit or that profit which comes free from compensation or that extra earning obtained that is free of exchange.

Islam recognizes trade and commerce not only as a lawful profession but also as a moral duty. Islam has laid down a complete set of rules for trade. The reason for these rules is to specify what halal earning is. Actually, Islam has encouraged men to earn their own provision and to pro Getting Over an Affair vide it to their families. The condition is that the earning has to be according to the conditions set by the Shari’ah.If we explore the Qur’an we will come across at least four places where Allah has mentioned interest. For instance, in Surah Al-Baqarah verse no.275 Allah says, “Those who devour usury will not stand except as stands one whom the Satan by his touch has driven to madness. That is because they say, “trade is like usury”, but Allah has permitted trade and has forbidden usury”, in the next verse 276 in the same place, Allah says, “Allah will deprive usury of all blessing, and will give increase for deeds of charity, for he does not love any ungrateful sinner.” In Surah Aal-Imran, verse no.130, Allah says, “Oh you who believe! Devour not usury doubled and multiplied; but fear Allah that you may prosper.
