Muslim Women have the right to start their own business. The Qu’ran teaches that both men and women are created as equals Muslim men have the right to marry up to four times but the Koran states that wives need to be treated fairly and equally. Muslim women can have high positions in government and other professions. Muslim women cannot lead Muslim men in prayer. If any of the wives work the money they earn is kept for themselves.
