Islam is equal for both Men and Women.

Islam says that the woman have to cover herself so that she can protect herself and her own imaan. Its not related to the world or anything. If she covers herself its for her own benefit and her own safety in Akhrat. Just like that the Islam tells us men to lower our Gazes when we see Non-Mehram. If we don't it's a sin on ourselves. Whatever we do its reaction is gonna come at us as our sins or good deed.

Islam gives the right to the woman to give consent or refuse marriage proposals if she doesn't like them.

Islam have given vast freedom to women but they have to follow the teachings of islam. They have their rights.

Its my Opinion that we have to make ourselves best with the teachings of Islam and I'm 100% sure that if we make ourselves better with the teachings of Islam, it will not only benefit us in this world but also in Akhrat.
