The answer

The article conflates facts and leads to false conclusions, such as measuring matters of the Hereafter by earthly standards, which is a faulty analogy. Paradise is completely different from this world, and the names of things in it do not resemble those in this world; jealousy and distress do not exist there. It is impermissible to delve into the details of unseen matters that the Sacred Law has not revealed. However, what the Sacred Law has clarified must be believed in and conveyed. A Muslim should focus on achieving what will admit him into Paradise without delving into useless matters. Allah will grant both men and women in Paradise what pleases them. Describing society as male-dominated is an exaggeration and an injustice. Muslim society recognizes women's rights, even if some individuals commit wrongdoings.
