Woman has been created from the CURVED Rib of Man

Society Religion & Philosophy

When Nabi Aadam (Alayhis salaam) was created, he was lonely. Allah created his spouse Hawaa (Alayhis salaam) from his left rib.

The various creations of Allah Ta’ala have been created from different matter, the matter also has an effect in the nature of these creations. For example, Jinn have been created from fire, which has the quality of rising. Thus, Jinn generally have the quality of pride. Man has been created from sad, which has the quality of being low. Thus man is humble by nature.

Women, having been created from a rib and have a degree of imbalance in their nature. The Ahaadith give a few examples of this imbalanced nature of women. Women have a common trait of being ungrateful of their husband, and of being hasty in cursing those that hurt their feelings. Again, this does not mean that all women are ungrateful, but that should not willfully make an effort to be grateful, the quality of ungratefulness will manifest itself.

The husband is advised that in view of the wife’s imbalanced nature, he should be patient and accept her as she is. He should not expect to completely correct her. If the husband does not have patience, and expects the wife to be perfect, there will be much turmoil in the home, to the extent that it will eventually lead in the marriage breaking down. This has been repeatedly confirmed through experience.

and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best

Amazing to see some people still believe in fairy tales..

This is not a Fairy tale.. I guess the best acurate source who can give you the answer would be a Imam or Sheikh of Islamic center if you doubt what I wrote there is a false statement.

Jazak Allah.

P.S= The plan is not to Bash any female here but to Inform them.

inform them of what?? get informed yourself before you spread disinformation.. this is all bible talk.. can u bring proof from the Qur'an that woman was created from the rib and this wasn't actually a process on the 'soul' level?

Sahih Bukhari Volume 4 Book 55 #548

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "Treat women nicely, for a woman is created from a rib, and the most curved portion of the rib is its upper portion, so, if you should try to straighten it, it will break, but if you leave it as it is, it will remain crooked. So treat women nicely"

and you told me about this verse in Bible?

(Genesis 2:21-22) "So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man's ribs and closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man."

The referred by the above saying of Ahaddith it has been ascribed to the Prophet (pbuh) in slightly varying words. It seems that the implication of the phrase "woman is created from rib" is similar to what the Qur'an has implied by the phrase: "Man is created from haste", which is quite accurately translated by Yusuf Ali as "Man is a creature of haste", implying that 'man is hasty, in nature'. Similarly, it seems that the referred phrase ascribed to the Prophet (pbuh) is not meant to imply the origin of a woman's creation, but to point out one of her attributes. Thus, the particular phrase, in my opinion, implies that a woman is like a rib, in her nature. A related narrative has also been reported in Bukhari and Muslim in the words "A woman is like a rib", rather than 'a woman is created from rib'. It is also possible that the particular narrative may have been (unintentionally) altered in its transmission - due (maybe) to a mistake on the part of any one or more of its narrators - in such a way that the words "A woman is like a rib" may have transformed into "A woman is created from the rib".

Keeping the foregoing explanation in perspective, in the referred narrative, the Prophet (pbuh), in my opinion, is reported to have advised that a person should not enforce his will upon his woman (wife). On the contrary, if the person wants to enjoy a pleasant life with his wife, he should ignore her faults and benefit from her positive qualities and should try to alter her (undesired) qualities with love and affection, rather than through force. Using force at such instances may break a woman rather than straighten her (as it would a rib).

The referred narrative should not be construed to imply that all women are, generally, unbending and uncompromising, in response to force. The statement ascribed to the Prophet (pbuh) should be construed as a general statement, based upon general exposure and experience. It should not be construed as a universal law for all women.

i guess that would clear your ideas!...

Jazak Allah Khair.

this is like a message in 24pt font with a 6pt font disclaimer attached to it. How about we just discard whatever lies were attributed in the name of pious men rather than needlessly defend lame statements.

18

beside trying hard to prove me wrong why dont u scroll up and read the Prophet Hadith regarding this matter.

19

That is true...
