And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. (1<br />

Timothy 2:14)<br />

What the Qur’an Says<br />

And he (Satan) swore by Allah to them both (Adam and Eve) (saying): “Verily, I am one of the<br />

sincere well-wishers for you both.” So he misled them with deception. (Qur’an, 7:21 -22)<br />

Thus did Adam disobey his Lord, so he went astray. Then his Lord chose him, and turned to him<br />

with forgiveness, and gave him guidance. (Qur’an, 20:121,122)<br />

Commentary<br />

According to the Qur’an both Adam and Eve were tempted by Satan. The Qur’an blames both of<br />

them for their sin. However, Adam and Eve prayed earnestly to Allah for forgiveness and He<br />

forgave them.<br />

According to the Bible, Eve was the sinner and because of her sin all humans are born in sin.<br />

Women’s Righteousness<br />

What the Bible Says<br />

… I found one upright man among a thousand, but not one upright woman among them all.<br />

(Ecclesiastes 7:28)<br />

Then the cover of lead was raised, and there in the basket sat a woman! He said, “This is<br />

wickedness,”… (Zechariah 5:7,8)<br />

The woman Folly is loud; she is undisciplined and without knowledge. (Proverbs 9:13)<br />

What the Qur’an Says<br />

And Allah has set forth an example to those who believe: The wife of Pharaoh, when she said:<br />

“My Lord! Build for me a home with You in Paradise, and save me from Pharaoh and his work,<br />

and save me from the people who do wrong.” And Mary, the daughter of lmran who guarded her<br />

chastity. And We breathed into (the sleeve of her garment) through Our Ruh (Gabriel), and she<br />

testified to the truth of the Words of her<br />

Lord, and His Scriptures, and she was one of the devout servants. (Qur’an, 66:11,12)<br />

Commentary<br />

The Bible states that women are foolish, wicked, undisciplined and without knowledge. It also<br />

says that no one upright woman was found among them all. On the contrary, the Qur’an orders all<br />

Muslims, men and women, to follow the shining examples of two perfect women, Mary the<br />

mother of Jesus (pbuh) and Pharaoh’s wife. These two ideal women were models of faith,<br />

righteousness, and patience for the sake of Allah.<br />

Women’s Role<br />

What the Bible Says<br />

Now I want you to realise that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man,<br />

and the head of Christ is God. (1 Corinthians 11:3)<br />

I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent. For Adam<br />

was formed first, then Eve. And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the<br />

woman who was deceived and became a sinner. (1 Timothy 2:12-14)<br />

If a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as menservants do. (Exodus 21:7)<br />

No widow may be put on the list of widows unless she is over sixty … and is well known for her<br />

good deeds, such as bringing up children, showing hospitality, washing the feet of the saints… (1<br />

Timothy 5:9,10)<br />

What the Qur’an Says<br />

And they (women) have rights (over their husbands) similar to the rights against them, in<br />

kindness, but men have a degree (of responsibility) over them. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.<br />

(Qur’an, 2:228)<br />

Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has made one of them to excel<br />

the other, and because they spend of their property (for the support of women). (Qur’an, 4:34)
