Muhammad {Peace Be Upon Him} was also very kind and affectionate towards women. Women were very badly treated in those times. Muhammad (peace be upon him) gave them honour and dignity equal to men in the community.

Men were always around God's Messenger and women did not get any time to listen to him or enquire about their problems. Therefore women requested him to appoint one day for them for this purpose. Muhammad ( Peace Be Upon Him) accepted their request and appointed a day for them.

As women are usually of a tender and weak nature, he took special care of them and always treated them with kindness. Women, therefore enquired about their problems very freely and without any fear. .

Once on a journey with the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him), Anjsha an Abyssinian slave, was in front of the camels and was singing. Some of the wives of the Holy Prophet were with them.
