                    The fanatics in question have completely failed to grasp
               that God attaches great value to women, the jewels of paradise, in
             both this world and the hereafter. Most important of all, they never
             sought guidance from the Qur'an.

                 None of the terms in the false hadiths in question appear any-
             where in the Qur'an. God described people with impaired morals,
             who do evil and commit unlawful deeds in detail in the Qur'an, and
             none of these descriptions say anything about them referring partic-

             ularly to women.
                 For example, God reveals in the Qur'an that a great many people
             will not believe, and that a great many of those who do will ascribe
             equals to Him:

                 Alif Lam Mim Ra. Those are the signs of the Book. And what has
                 been sent down to you from your Lord is the Truth. But most peo-
                 ple have no faith. (Qur'an, 13:1)

                 Most of them do not have faith in God without associating others
                 with Him. (Qur'an, 12:106)
                 In another verse, God reveals that despite His creating all possi-
             ble means for people to learn from, the majority of people still do not
             learn, but continue with the same moral degeneration:

                 We have variegated it for them so they might pay heed but most
                 people spurn anything else but disbelief. (Qur'an, 25:50)
                 As we have seen, neither these nor any other verses of the
             Qur'an say anything about people with poor morals and behavior
             being women, in the way that fanatics allege. People who behave

             immorally are not classified on the basis of their gender in any verse.
             There is nothing in any verse saying that women are more immoral
             or that fewer women will enter paradise. The information in false
             hadiths is all fraudulent and fabricated in order to spread hostility
             toward women. The Qur'an absolutely and definitively refutes the
             false hadiths in question.
