00:00With my friends, with my teachers, with my family, I was talking about gender equality in Islam.
00:07Ms. Khadija was an example of a giant business woman.
00:12She has been given examples.
00:14I have given this book for 2 years for free time.
00:22I am Arooka Shabeer from Amirabad Raal.
00:24I have been writing this book since the end of my class 9th.
00:27And my class 11th is still working.
00:30What inspired me to write on this topic?
00:32This particular topic of Islamic Feminism and Gender Equality.
00:35I have inspired me to write on this topic.
00:39The world around me, the people around me.
00:42They forced me to write on this topic.
00:44They motivated me to write on this topic.
00:47Because we see myths and misconceptions in our minds.
00:53They forced me to write on this topic.
00:56For example, when you read this book, you will get such topics.
01:00You will get an explanation in the Quranic principles and the Hadith principles.
01:04I have done research on this topic.
01:07For example, we talk about a person who says that
01:11a girl cannot do this, but a girl can do it.
01:14A girl is only 10th or 12th.
01:16After that, her life is in her age.
01:19So this is a small example.
01:29This is a very small example.
01:31But if you look at the women, they can do something.
01:34We are looking at it.
01:35We are looking at it.
01:36As we talk about it.
01:37As we talk about it.
01:38Our Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
01:40who was the first leader of the Prophet,
01:42who was the first leader of Khadija.
01:44She was a giant business woman.
01:47So, she was not only in the kitchen.
01:49She was handling this business throughout her life.
01:53And Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
01:55has also given her business examples.
01:57And with her teachers, and with her family,
01:59they were discussing all about gender equality in Islam.
02:03But I didn't know that all the proofs
02:06will get me from Quran and Hadith.
02:09So, when I went to school,
02:13we were discussing with friends.
02:15I would like to give a friend's name.
02:17Nimrat Chis from Hari.
02:18She has been my ultimate support among all friends.
02:21And she was always like,
02:23Aroofa, you can write.
02:24She has motivated me to share ideas.
02:27I will help you with any help.
02:31So, she has supported me with friends.
02:35So, when I was at home,
02:36I used to tell my mom and dad about gender equality.
02:39So, when I started my research,
02:42when I came to the internet platform,
02:44I got the first word that was feminism.
02:47And I went to West.
02:48When I saw what is feminism,
02:51and actually its roots,
02:52I saw everything.
02:53So, when I came back to the truth,
02:56I learned a new word,
02:57that maybe I was thinking wrong.
02:59Because the fact that I saw
03:02that my ideology is wrong.
03:04But after a while,
03:06when I was in the truth,
03:07it was paused,
03:08it was freeze.
03:09That maybe I was thinking wrong.
03:10But then,
03:11I thought,
03:12why didn't I see this until class 9's ending.
03:15I have memorized 24 paragraphs of Quran,
03:18Alhamdulillah.
03:19But that's in Arabic.
03:20Because when you memorize the Quran,
03:22you are in Arabic.
03:23But if we read the English translation,
03:25or the Urdu translation,
03:27it gets more clarity.
03:29So, I thought,
03:30why didn't I read the Quran,
03:31I read the Quran,
03:32English translation,
03:33and Urdu translation,
03:34so that I can see
03:35what is written in the truth.
03:36Because Arabic is not your first language.
03:38So, you don't understand
03:40what is written in the Quran,
03:41as a Kashmiri,
03:42I am saying.
03:43So,
03:44I have seen,
03:45I started,
03:46these translations of Quran.
03:48If I have seen,
03:49the Urdu translation,
03:50if I have heard before,
03:51then,
03:52in our house,
03:53Sheikh Lukman Salafi,
03:54the Urdu translation,
03:55that I have read.
03:56From that,
03:57I have seen,
03:58many of the references,
04:00that I have seen,
04:01or,
04:02if I have seen,
04:03it is,
04:04the English translation of Quran,
04:05which is written by
04:06three American-converted Muslims.
04:08And,
04:09without that,
04:10there is also,
04:11Dr. Muhammad Taqiyuddin,
04:13English translation,
04:14that I have also read.
04:15So,
04:16there are references,
04:17a particular topic,
04:18like,
04:19feminism rooted in Islamic principles.
04:20So,
04:21in that,
04:22I have seen,
04:23Quranic ayah,
04:24or,
04:25Sahih Bukhari,
04:26or Muslim Sharif,
04:27I have seen,
04:28the references,
04:29of that particular topic,
04:30the Quran,
04:31and the Hadith,
04:32and the Hadith.
04:33Just,
04:34to say an example,
04:35we say,
04:36that,
04:37that,
04:38that,
04:39that,
04:40I have seen,
04:41that,
04:42witness of two women,
04:43equal to one死 one man.
04:45that,
04:46he wouldn't say,
04:47two women equal to one man.
04:48So,
04:49who have witness,
04:51it is,
04:51it's blood CSU Impinte Kud so,
04:53it's mentioned in Surabakhar beginner,
04:54product two women as,
04:55witness region,
04:5621热ана,
04:57on the floor of a friend,
04:58but,
04:59if not,
05:00the information,
05:01one girl is available,
05:02her whom I have seen,
05:03two women equal to a woman,
05:04not the information isappelle,
05:05but,
05:06one man has signed
05:07all in incase,
05:08mentioned only in case of financial transactions because at the time this ayah was revealed
05:12when this ayah was revealed at the time women were less involved in financial transactions
05:17but I have given a example of a giant business woman that she was given a giant business
05:22woman.
05:23Even by Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam how she handled her business throughout her
05:28life.
05:29So it was not that she was involved in the first financial transactions but Allah has
05:33already said that in calculations and pensions, women have more IQ than women.
05:40So in only the case of financial transactions, the witness of two women is equal to witness
05:47of one man.
05:48So these myths I want to clear from the minds of people.
05:52So on this basis, I started writing the first book that I believe, like I have interpreted
05:58the Quran, the misinterpretation of the misinterpretation of the Quran, that I can clear that.
06:03that I can clear that.
06:04So this was my main aim.
06:06And as I have spoken to you, firstly I am very much thankful to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,
06:10who has given me the purpose of writing a book and throughout this journey, I have made
06:16my confidence in a boost every day and I have made it throughout this journey.
06:21After that, my mama has always been my ultimate support.
06:25Like, whenever I was feeling low, like, mama, now my confidence is low, I don't want to
06:30write a book tomorrow.
06:32I don't know if anyone will read the book or not, anyone will be interested in the book
06:35or not.
06:36So, mama, I just said one thing, just write a book.
06:38Then, don't think about publishing.
06:40Just express yourself your ideas.
06:42Just write a book in the book.
06:45And Baba as well, he always supported me, encouraged me.
06:48Like, so all that.
06:50And I want to say about my grandparents, they have always supported me, especially my nanu.
06:54He's more than a, like, he's my best, best buddy.
06:58So, he always supported me and my maternal, maternal uncles, all they supported me.
07:03And about one thing I want to say here, respected Umar sir, he always supported me.
07:08Like, when I told him that I'm writing a book, he was like, that I'll do it myself.
07:15And he himself spoke with the publisher and others.
07:18He took it myself.
07:19So, he always supported me like a big brother.
07:22And, yeah, and lastly, I want to thank the West Publishing House Sopor,
07:27who helped me to publish this book.
07:30Yes, now, like, two days ago, Amazon came to me.
07:33So, my book, which is my own, because it's not much,
07:36I don't know much about this book.
07:39So, my parents, grandparents, teachers, parents,
07:45they have a great review.
07:47We have to go to another source.
07:50This is the AIA, because I gave a book,
07:53that you have to jump to another source.
07:56You have to get a book.
07:58I have to give my free time, which is my book.
08:01I feel like that I'm not active on social media.
08:04I have no social media app.
08:06Like, I have published a book,
08:07so they said that we have posted on Facebook,
08:09and on Instagram.
08:10But unfortunately, I didn't get any app available.
08:13Because, I have given my free time for this book.
08:18So, I would like to say that, no doubt,
08:20that you have to be absent from the phone.
08:23But, you have to reduce it.
08:25Like, I have given my free time,
08:27passion, book writing.
08:29So, you also have to reduce the time.
08:32I feel like, after this,
08:33there will be some inspiration for the kids,
08:35that we can utilize our free time.
08:37We can utilize it in a good place.
08:41And then, there will be a result.
08:42Because, if you look at the reel,
08:43you are scrolling,
08:44and you don't know where to go.
08:46But, if you look at the reel,
08:47you will see the two hours,
08:48and there will be nothing else.
08:49But, if you look at the reel,
08:51two hours,
08:52which I spend two years,
08:53and I have written the reel,
08:55and I have written the reel.
08:56This book, I have written the reel.
08:58This is a whole two years.
09:00I have made my first time in my life.
09:02Because, you can read the book from the internet.
09:05But, it doesn't come to the reel.
09:07Because, if you look at the reel,
09:09I have written the reel.
09:11As I said,
09:12you have to keep editing your phone.
09:14and screen time,
09:16it doesn't happen in your book.
09:17You can keep editing your book.
09:19You can read the reel.
09:20And, there will be no side effects.
09:22No screen timing.
09:24You have many side effects.
09:26You have to keep editing your eyes.
09:28You have to keep editing your head.
