Educating Women
Narrated Abu Said: A woman came to Allah’s Apostle (SAW) and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! Men (only) benefit by your teachings, so please devote to us from (some of) your time, a day on which we may come to you so that you may teach us of what Allah has taught you.” Allah’s Apostle (SAW) said, “Gather on such-and-such a day at such-and-such a place.” They gathered and Allah’s Apostle came to them and taught them of what Allah had taught him. He then said, “No woman among you who has lost her three children (died) but that they will screen her from the Fire.” A woman among them said, “O Allah’s Apostle! If she lost two children?” She repeated her question twice, whereupon the Prophet said, “Even two, even two, even two!” (Bukhari, 6840)

Now a days still in few parts of the world, women are deprived of Eduation and specially Islamic education. Islamic education is only for men in many countries even now.
If women are given proper Islamic Education, Insha ALlah it will help them alot to bring up thier children as per the ISlamic teachings.
Rosulullah (SAW) have said it all, women are the first school of a child. Why would anyone deny women education. Such a person should have a re-think. Prophet PBOH never say thinks that he is not sure of.
