But precisely for these verses is that they can not be understood. Outside their historical context

Injustice as But it can also be seen when the woman previously had absolutely no right to an inheritance. Progress as a matschappij Even the followers of Muhammad found it difficult to accept this change. "Why should we give someone something that bears no sword, no horse riding and attacking any enemy?" She asked, according to tradition. Was meant: how can we give something to someone who does not contribute to the production?
The production consisted mainly of the wars between different tribes, wars fought over grazing land, water, feed, and of course the trade and caravans. The warrior was an essential factor in the production because he defended the community. Because he producer happens to him - to put it sociologically explain - the right to the inheritance. Nevertheless, and despite the initial opponents of their own followers, Islam is the inheritance for women. This indicates that Islam in its historical setting, tried to promote equality. One can understand the verses literally and really find it that women only hall; inherits f as much as men. However, one can also see the tendency of the message of the Qur'an. Which ultimately comes from equal rights, freshwater biome even though that was not quite reach. In the cultural freshwater biome and social situation when The situation is different now.

In addition to the statements of the Qur'an which of all time, and mostly about the relationship of man to God, there is thus a second level in the Quran. There are also revelations that deal with the relationship of people to each other. These revelations have not occurred in a vacuum. They are recited in Arabic, and were directed to the people of that time.
Amina Wadud discusses one of the passages in the Quran that has caused freshwater biome a lot of misunderstanding the description of paradise, in particular the men the company promised a bevy of lovely and willing virgins, their 'companions'.
In treatises on these verses is a lot of effort to bescrhijven from the male perspective. The exact nature and number of these companions A clear discussion of what the Qur'an provides on this issue, first of all requires attention to chronology.

After the Meccan period was never spoken in such terms about paradise freshwater biome in the Qur'an. When the hearing consisted of the community freshwater biome of believers, men and women, and then the Qur'an speaks about the reward freshwater biome in paradise much gender neutral, then the believers are promised gardens, beneath which rivers flow, and pure azway and God's pleasure (3:15) . And azway is plural companion, consort, and can refer to both a man and a woman. (In the translation that I usually use, The Noble Quran, is that azway translated as wives. Thus we can see that in the translation often seems as if men are addressed, even if it explicitly gender freshwater biome neutral applies to both sexes in Arabic) and that's right more with the overall thrust of the Qur'an, which is precisely the partnership, mutual consolation
