Muslim governments have betrayed our brothers and sisters in G4ZA, standing by as the merciless slaughter unfolds before their eyes. No current nation-state will defend G4ZA—only a true Khilafah, like that of the Khulafah Rashideen, can bring justice. Spread this message to every Muslim It is time to unite the Ummah, establish Allah's swth's deen through Khilafah and revive the Ummah!

Introduction to System of Islam by Jalal Ansari

8.3 The Islamic Social System

The Social System in Islam is concerned with men and women, and the regulation of the way they interact with each other, whether in the private or public arenas.

There has always been much confusion among people in the West as to the roles that men and women play in life. In the past, women were seen as inferior beings to men, and have even been compared to animals and regarded as ‘without souls’, or just items of property. And in the present day, womens movements and organisations struggle against the establishment to achieve the same status and rights as men.

These kinds of conflicts arise between men and women, because it is left to human reason to define what is the nature of men and women, and what roles they are supposed to play in life. However, it is impossible for limited human minds to understand fully the intricate nature of men and women, and their different emotions and characteristics. As a result of this, erroneous ideas arise about how men and women should interact with each other. Their roles remain undefined, and the result is chaos in society.

Many problems stem directly from this lack of clarity, whether concerning the roles of men and women in relationships, in families or in the workplace. This is why there is discrimination against and oppression of women, family breakdown, sexual harassment, prostitution, child abuse, homosexuality - the list of the consequences of an ill-defined social system is almost endless.
