She gave her life in the process ( i.e. she died of the punishment inflicted to her), but did not forsake Imaan
• Every single woman going to hell will take four (4) jannati men. Because they did not fikr nor had they cared in duniya about the Deen and Imaan of that woman and did not teach her Deen, these four men will be:
  · Her father
  · Her brother
  · Her husband & Her son

If woman glances at men she is not allowed to see according to the shariat, Allah Taalah sends his curse upon her, just as it is forbidden for a man to glance at women he is not allowed to see.

May Allah give every Muslim men & women HIDAYA to stand by Islamic Rules and keep far away from the sin.Inshallah

Islamic Way of Life

Islam provides definite guidelines for all people to follow in all walks of life. The guidance it gives is comprehensive and includes the social, economic, political, moral and spiritual aspects of life. The Quran reminds man of the purpose of his life on Earth, of his duties and obligations towards himself, his kith and kin, his community, his fellow human beings and his Creator. Man is given is left with the challenge of human existence before him so that he might put these high ideals into practice. In Islam, man’s life is a wholesome, integrated unit and not a collection of fragmented, competitive parts. The sacred and secular are not separate parts of a man: they are united in the nature of being human.
