The Muslim accepts that the main purpose behind the creation of jinn and mankind was that they should worship Allah, struggle against the forces of Satan and live their life according to Allah’ s Commandments in order to achieve eternal bliss in Paradise.
“And I (Allah) created not the jinn and men except they should worship Me (Alone).” (V. 51:56) Also Allah said: “Nay! But worship Allah, and be among the grateful.” (V. 39:66)
At another place He said: “Say (O Muhammad r): ‘Verily, I am commanded to worship Allah by obeying Him and doing religious deeds sincerely for His sake only.” (V. 39: 11) Equality of Men and Women as regards Religious Obligations and Retribution In this spiritual regard, Islam makes no distinction between men and women.Both have a soul, both were created for the same purpose in life, both have a duty to fulfill their religious obligations, both will be judged by the All-Mighty, and both will be rewarded or punished according to their individual actions. Whenever the Qur’aan mentions those fortunate beings who will enter the Gardens of Bliss because of their piety and good deeds, it mentions men and women together.
“And whoever does righteous good deeds, male or female, and is a (true) believer (Muslim)], such will enter Paradise and not the least injustice, even to the size of a Naqira (speck on the back of a date stone), will be done to them.” (V. 4:124)
“Whoever works righteousness whether male female while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him We will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and We shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e., Paradise in the Hereafter).” (V.16: 97)
“The believers, men and women, are Auliyā ‘ (helpers, supporters, friends, protectors) of one another; they enjoin (on the people) Al-Ma’rüf (i.e., Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam orders one to do), and forbid (people) from Al-Munkar (i.e., polytheism and disbelief of all kinds, and all that Islam has forbidden); they offer their prayers perfectly (Iqįmat-as-Salat), and give the Zakat, and obey Allah and His Messenger. Allah will have His Mercy on them. Surely, Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.” (V.9: 71) “Verily, the Muslims (those who submit to Allah in Islam) men and women, the believers men and women (who believe in Islamic Monotheism), the men and the women who are obedient (to Allah), the men and women who are truthful (in their speech and deeds), the men and the women who are patient (in performing all the duties which Allah has ordered and in abstaining from all that Allah has forbidden), the men and the women who are humble (before their Lord Allah), the men and the women who give Sadaqāt (i.e., Zakat and alms), the men and the women who observe Saum (fast) (the obligatory fasting during the month of Ramadān, and the optional Nawafil fasting), the men and the women who guard their chastity (from illegal sexual acts) and the men and the women who remember Allah much with their hearts and tongues (while sitting, standing, lying, etc.); Allah has prepared for them forgiveness and a great reward (i.e., Paradise).” (V. 33:35)
There can thus be no doubt that in the Hereafter, men and women will both be judged, each individual bearing the burden of its own acts, each soul will be punished for its transgressions and each will be rewarded for its obedience to Allah.

Biologically Men and Women are two different sexes, but complementary to each other:
One may well ask that if there is such a complete and comprehensive spiritual equality between the two sexes, why is this identical treatment not found in other rights, duties and privileges. Muslims and especially non-Muslims question why men go out to work while women are encouraged to stay at home, why women have to wear the Hijāb (veil), why a brother receives alarger share of inheritance than his sister, why a man can be a ruler but a woman can not, etc., and they then conclude that Islam treats women as inferior beings. Laws can never be discussed without being explained first, so we must first consider the fundamental Islamic ethos that men and women are two different yet complementary sexes. It is an established medical fact that men and women have different biological compositions and temperaments.
Allah the All-Mighty created and knows this biological difference better than we do, and has thus assigned to men and women the roles that each excels in due to its nature. Neither gender is inferior or superior to the other; instead they complement each other like the two halves of a whole. In everyday life we see that society consists of many different kinds of people, all of whom play their particular roles to keep society intact. The farmer and the doctor make different contributions to the society, but both are equally important. Each excels in his own field, and each provides a service for the other. Similarly, men and women are different sexes and play vital roles in their own areas of excellence.
Worth of Women in Islam:
The Prophet’s narrations speak of women with praise and respect. He ronce said:
“The world and all things in it are precious, and the most precious thing in the world is a virtuous woman.” (Ahmad and Muslim)
He also said:
“Shall I not inform you about the best treasure a man can have? It is avirtuous woman who pleases him when he looks at her, who obeys him when he commands her, and who guards herself when he is absent from her.”
The Prophet rsaid: “Made beloved to me from your world are women and perfume, and the coolness of my eyes is in prayer.” (Ahmad and An-Nasa ‘i)
The Honour of Mother in Islam:
In a famous incident, a man came to the Prophet r and asked: “O Messenger of Allah, who is the person who has the greatest right on me with regards to kindness and attention?” He replied: “Your mother.” “Then Who?” He replied: “Your mother.” “Then who?” He replied: Your mother.” “Then who?” He replied: “Your father.” (Ahmad and Abu Dawud) The Qur’an also discusses the immense honor and respect due to both parents, and especially to mother: “And We have enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good) to his parents. His mother bore him in weakness and hardship upon weakness and hardship, and his weaning is in two years give thanks to Me and to your parents, unto Me is the final destination.” (V. 31:14)
The Reward of upbringing Girls:
In the days when it was a custom to cherish the birth of male children and to bury the female children alive because of shame and poverty, the Prophet r has said:
“Whoever looks after two girls till they reach maturity, he and I will enter Paradise together like these two (fingers)
