BENEFIT 56: Women are half as much as men in five matters
In his explanation on Sunan Abī Dāwūd [23/334, according to Shāmilah], Sheikh ’Abdul-Muḥsin Al-’Abbād ḥafidhahullāh said:
“... It is established in the Qur'ān and the Sunnah that women are half as much as men in five matters:
▪️The first: Inheritance; the male has the same share as the two females.
▪️The second: Manumission; if a man frees two women, this will be a means of salvation from the Hellfire.
▪️The third: Witness testimony; if two male witnesses are not available, then a man and two women.
▪️The fourth: Blood money; the woman's Diyah (blood money/ ransom) is half of the man's.
▪️The fifth: ‘Aqīqah; the boy gets two sheeps (slaughtered on his behalf) and the girl gets one sheep.
In these five matters, women are half as much as the men.”
