Need Correction On Women's And Men's Rights And Responsibilities In Islam
Need help in correcting the following summary list of women’s and men’s rights and responsibilities in Islam. Did I miss or misstated anything?
———-
A Woman’s Rights and Responsibilities in Islam
——————-
A woman has no financial responsibilities and Islam doesn’t impose any restriction on a woman to work
A woman has no responsibility to protect husband or family or to participate in war
A mother has a greater honor and respect than father
Islam recommends half the share of inheritance for a woman than a man unless a will specifies otherwise
A woman is required to cover two areas of body
Upon death of husband, the wife get 4 month and 10 days worth of living expenses
A woman receives expenses related to taking care of children
A wife gets full amount of Mehr-Mukadam immediately upon marriage as agreed in marriage contract
A wife gets full amount of Mehr-Muakhar as agreed in marriage contract or any amendments thereafter, anytime during marriage or at divorce, but do not receive half of everything by default upon divorce
There is no mention if a wife can or can’t beat a husband in case of insurrection to avoid divorce
Only in financial disputes, two female witnesses are required against one male witness
Islam doesn’t put any responsibility of cooking, cleaning or taking care of children upon a wife.

Mostly out of societal norms God endorses certain norms in His Shariah which are mentioned in the Quran and which are necessary to run their life in smooth fashion with the purpose of purification of ethics.
