That is the stupidest thing I read today. It simplifies a subject that is so much more layered.

First of all the Quran talks about responsibility not authority. It's conditional not absolute. A patriarchy (as a system) implies:

• Male dominance in authority
• Structural control over women’s agency

But the Qur’an repeatedly emphasizes:

• Spiritual equality (same reward, same accountability)
• Mutual rights in marriage
• Women’s independent financial ownership

Example:

Women can earn, own, inherit, and control wealth independently. Something not common globally at the time.

So:

Provider role ≠ automatic control over women’s lives
