🌺 I am a Woman 🌺

O son of Adam!

I am a woman,

Respected in every relationship,

Pure in every form.

I am that very woman

In whose lap have been nurtured

Prophets, saints, the righteous, men of wisdom, and men of knowledge.

Through whose prayers high ranks are attained,

Through whose service Paradise is gained,

Upon whose upbringing glad tidings are granted,

And by marrying whom, faith (Iman) is completed.

Listen!

I am the guardian of your lineage,

Do not make a sport or spectacle out of me.

In whichever form you give me respect,

You will find me loyal; you will find me characterful.

I am considered deficient in intellect ('Naqis-ul-Aql')

Only because I do not know society in the manner that men do,

And I cannot truly gauge the deception and falsehood of men.

For God's sake,

Do not mistake my desires for my weakness.

The destiny of generations depends on me;

The survival of humanity is through me.

The demand for modesty (Haya) is upon both—men as well as women.

Remain chaste and pure with the women of others,

And your own women will remain chaste and pure.
