Question:
This is Salim from Tabuk. He asks: What is meant by the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): "Treat women well"?

Answer:
The intended meaning is to protect women, not to wrong them, not to take their rights or treat them as weak, and to protect them from what harms them or corrupts their morals,
Men are in charge of womenالرِّجَالُ قَوَّامُونَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ
[An-Nisa 4:34]
. Her guardian is responsible for managing her affairs and keeping her away from what harms her; because he is her shepherd and is accountable for his flock. Yes.
