In this essay, the result of a sermon on the festival of the breaking of the fast during the author's study visit to Canada, he deals with the diverse prejudices and opinions of the Western world about the position of women in Islam . In his book he draws the following conclusion:

Islam is the religion that has significantly improved the status of women and given them rights that the modern world only granted women in this century. Islam has a lot to offer women, both now and then: dignity, respect and protection in all situations and situations in their lives, from birth to death. It also provides the fulfillment of their: spiritual, mental, physical and emotional needs . (P. 58.)
