dc.description.abstract | Women, according to Shari’ah, are counterparts of men and, in Islamic jurisprudence, according to Hassan Turabi in his book1, there is no separate order of regulations for them. There are however, limited secondary regulations where a distinction is drawn between the two sexes, such as regulations for observing menstrual cycle, birth and suckling among others. But these are intended purely to enable both of them to give a genuine expression of their faith in accordance with their respective human nature. Furthermore, the Shari ’ah or Islamic law is essentially the same on this, and its general rules are common for both sexes; it is addressed to both without distinction. Personal religious services for woman in Islam are the same as for a man. She has to perform her prayers, fasting, pilgrimage to the Holy Ka ’bah and remember Allah.2 | en_US |
