Social role of Saudi Arabian’s woman
In a global point of view, Saudi Arabian’s women have a really tough reality inside the society of this country. They have no rights at all, also They have no opinion so ever about any discussion inside Arabian’s culture. They have to live with the stereotype of the submissive human being; that is also an uneducated individual with no opportunities to grow up as a person, but inside this country, the reality of these opinions are not so tough as we thought.
According to the Holy Qur’an, women have economic and social rights indeed. To begin with, the holy Qur’an allows woman to inherit or acquire properties and take control of them by themselves without the commitment of give part of it to their husbands after married.
Islam states that woman have to enjoy their position as a main part of a family, due to this is one of the most important roles of Saudi Arabia’s female population.
