Why do you do so? It is misunderstood all this subject in my opinion. No one in management and in politics decides himself about important things - it is always more people involved, always person is part of system - male or female. Of course there are personal decisions which everyone makes for him or her self. I really dont understand - if husband is OK with his wife being leader in business for example or in public life - why it is such a problem. It can be considered that she get big confidence in theri relationship, it can be considered they know and honor each other, it can also be considered that he does not loose any superiority above her. I really am not persuaded - no seeing any prohibition to be leader. (except that QUESTIONED hadith about state being led by woman......).
There is beautiful new mosque of Sheikh Zayed in Abu Dhabi - the project manager was woman.

Salam alikum

Sis, my post was a bunch of silliness. I tend to favor Dr. Umar's opinion more because... well, people have chosen their woman as leaders before and have prospered. England's Golden Age was under Elizabeth I--In direct contradiction of that hadith! (it's okay though, she didn't know).

Whether or not a woman can be the khalifa (sort of a moot point since really NOBODY can be the khalifa right now) I think it's very important women be in senior leadership positions because, well, we have women in society, so we will need their input on important leadership decisions.

And I don't know where you all are from, but man in America, the sisters run the show here. They are on the forefront of Islam for one major reason: hijab. A brother can go day by day and people might not even suspect they are muslim (unless they "look a-rab or something), but hijabis? No such luck! Let's hear it for the sisters! :halalfistbump:
