status of women and their role in the society have been significantly improved. Equality between the men and women is also a part that was taken seriously in this modern time and age. However‚ the situation for women during the 50’s era was a complety opposite story‚ where women were not considered to be an entity that can contribute to the society.

topic is: Role of Women in Islam Past and Present In this paper I will argue that the position of women in Islam according to the Qur ’an and Hadiths (tradition) of the Prophet differs vastly from Islam in practice‚ currentely.

From the past to the present‚ the roles of men and women have changed through generations‚ cultures‚ and tradition. In the past‚ the roles of men and women were determined by physical attributes‚ because men were stronger than women. Men had a lot of responsibility‚ such as working and providing for their family.
