Allah, the Compassionate One, the Merciful One, gave women many rights 1,400 years ago that were only given to women in the past 150 years in the United States (e.g., voting rights, property rights, etc). Muslims follow the Prophet Muhammad's (may God mention him among His angels) perfect example in dealing with women.
Allah says in the Quran: "O you who believe, you are forbidden to inherit women against their will, and you should not treat them with harshness" (An-Nisa 4:19). The Quran teaches Muslim men that they have to live with women honorably. If you dislike them, it may be that you dislike a thing and Allah brings through it a great deal of good. Both Muslim men and women have been commanded to seek knowledge. We can see this in the example of Aisha, the wife of the Prophet Muhammad (may God mention him among His angels), who was a great scholar of Islam.
