The questioner:
We begin this session with this question that came from our brother Abdullah. He says: What is the interpretation of the saying of Allah the Exalted:
Men are in charge of womenالرِّجَالُ قَوَّامُونَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ
[An-Nisa 4:34]
?

The Shaykh:
(1) In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. (2) [All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds -بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
[Al-Fatihah 1:1-2]
. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. The saying of Allah the Exalted:
Men are in charge of womenالرِّجَالُ قَوَّامُونَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ
[An-Nisa 4:34]
means that they are responsible for their care and protection. For their care and protection. Because they are a trust with them, and Allah has entrusted them with it, so they must fulfill this responsibility. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah bless you.
