The Rights and Obligations upon Men and Women in Islam
This new publication from the Shaykh Rabee’ Ibn Haadee al-Madkhalee (May Allah preserve him upon good), is an extraordinarily beneficial book. The Shaykh deals with the issue of the rights of men and women based on a seminar that was held by some women in Jeddah, Saudi ‘Arabia who claimed their rights were withheld. This publication is a refutation upon those who make this claim, as well as a description of the rights given to men and women in Islam, the loftiness of women’s rights in Islam over that of those in the West, and the women of other religions such as Christianity, Judaism, and Hinduism.

Plural marriage contains general and abundant benefits. However, some people are cowardly regarding this, either due to having a scanty amount of wealth or out of fear of his first wife, her tongue lashing, and her evil, or due to other reasons. Hence, if one has the ability to do it and it is easy for him, then in order that one may be good to the Muslims and safeguard the chastity of the many young ladies, this is better. If it is not easy upon him, then there is no harm upon him ( having only one wife).
