ABSTRACT
Woman is the mother of all mankind; she carries the child inside her and in her arms. It is from her that he gets the character that will manifest itself later on in life. She suckles the child at her breast, nourishing him with her blood and soul. She is a faithful companion and a wife119 who fills a gap, and takes away her husband’s loneliness. She sacrifices her health and comfort to satisfy her husband’s needs, helps him overcome obstacles and showers him with love to ease all hardships and sorrows. She infuses him with life and rejuvenates him. She makes up half the human race and half the nation, fully contributing to all aspects of human activity. If we despise woman and ignore her humiliation and degradation, we are in fact showing contempt for ourselves and are satisfied with our own humiliation and degradation. However, if we love and respect her, and endeavour to help her achieve her full potential, this is a demonstration of love and respect for ourselves in our quest to fulfil our own potential.
