#no wonder so many Western women are reverting after reading about women's rights in Islam

The older I get the more I am sure of the fact that the vast majority of us women were not created to slave away at a 9-to-5 every business day of the year. The majority of us were made to nurture and be nurtured.

We suffer way more under workplace stress than men do. We endure hormonal changes on a monthly basis that take a toll on us both mentally and physically. We can carry a fetus inside us for 9 whole months. We need a life that is flexible in nature; that accommodates our ever-changing bodies. Our hormones can get drastically affected by our mental states. This is not a flaw. It's how we were created. We should be proud of how we were created. We shouldn't have to strive to be more like men.

The One who created us, who knows us better than we know ourselves, gave us flexibility by lifting the obligation of fasting and prayer during menses, making men responsible for providing for us, etc...

The broken system of the modern world does us a great disservice and robs us of our rights.
