Saya kutip:

"The same happened in Islam. The 7th century Koran gave women rights of
inheritance and divorce that women in the West would not get until the 19th
century. There is nothing in the Koran to suggest that all women should be
veiled and secluded from society. Only the Prophet's wives were to be
covered, and this was a security measure. Muhammad's postion in Medina was
very insecure and his enemies were harrassing his wives. But the other
Muslim women were not veiled and took a full and lively part in the life of
the city. The Koran makes it clear that men and women have equal rights and
responsibilities.
