Where is ‘fitrah’ of woman in islam?


            Fitrah is decision which Allah outlined to Allah’s creatures. Allah creating His servants so Allah most knowing which the best to His servants. Allah assign task to each creature and provide apparatus and utensil suitable the duty in this world. When one of them taking over the task that is not a job , then there will  be a job  that can’t handle like the main purpose before and more jobs that overlap and more strife show up.
            Allah outlined the man lead the woman because Allah give a tool of lead to the man that  not given to women. Likewise Allah SWT entrust a baby toward the woman cause Allah give ware to her that something the man don’t have it.
            Another example, Allah determine the  woman a half  from portion of the  man specially  for heritage, cause Allah has preferred  a burden for the man with something don’t charged for the woman. which give livelihood to his family. That is, Allah gives means to His creature with something suitable with duties  and responsibilities. If  like that, is it proper we to welcome the call “gender equality” for proprietary right of  a whole?
            If women today demanding  about gender equality to get the seat, gender equality to get heritage, and etc. Let’s take a look something become a demand for shahabiyat which should be an example for us.
            One day Asma’ bin Yazid bin Sakan to face with Rasulullah S.A.W  and said “ Rasulullah, i am a delegate of women behind me, they agree with my opinion. Allah delegate you to men and also women. We also trust to you and follow you whereas we limited various movements. We take care of  the household and into shed lust of our husbands, we were containing their children. But Allah SWT give primacy to men with shalat jama’ah, take the corpse, and jihad. If they came out to jihad, we  who keep their wealth and maintain their children, so if we get a reward as they  get?”
            Hearing the demand from Asma, Prophet Muhammad turned to companions as he said, “Have you ever heard a women’s question about her religion is better than this question ?”. Then He said, “Go O Asma’ and tell the lady behing you that better treatment of the husband and the effort , you get blessing from him, and  loyalty to him, the reward equal to what you mentioned.
            Take a look, is there any similar demand of shahabiyat with demand of women today?
