Women In Quran
In Surah Aal-e-Imran 3:14, women are described as ‘zeenat’ (adornment) alongside gold, silver, and wealth. Meanwhile, men are promised hoors in the afterlife, but no similar reward is explicitly mentioned for women. If both men and women experience attraction, why is only the woman described as ‘zeenat’? Does this imply that the world is primarily centered around men, with women existing just as adornments? How should this be understood in Islamic thought?

Since Quan was revealed at a time when tribalism was there, where men ran all the affairs, they were addressed in this regard but it was understood that such things are for women too.
The decorum set for women requires not to make the matter of sexual nature explicit for them.
“Beauty, thy name is woman.” The quote shows that the most beautiful creation of God is women and this attracts men. It is therefore mentriwd in the first place. It is understood that when men will have women, the women will have men, but th decorum requires not got make it a naked statement.
Moreover, it was men who have been transgessing their limits for attaining women, therefore they were told that they will have desired women in the heaven.
Hoor is not heavenly women. The very women of our world will be the hoors there.
All these points have been discussed in different video lectures of Ghamidi saheb. For details you can search them.
