i have given reference
Abu Sa’id al-Khudri said that when God’s messenger went out to the place of prayer on the day of sacrifice, or on the day when the fast was broken, he came upon some women and said, “Give alms, you women folk, for I have been shown that you will be the majority of the inhabitants of hell.” They asked, “For what reason, messenger of God?” He replied, “You are greatly given to abuse, and you are ungrateful to your husbands. Among women who are deficient in intelligence and religion I have not seen anyone more able to remove the understanding of a prudent man than one of you.” They asked, “What is the deficiency of our religion and our intelligence, messenger of God?” He replied, “Is not the testimony of a woman equivalent to half the testimony of a man?” They said, “Yes.” Remarking that that pertained to the deficiency of her intelligence, he asked, “Is it not the case that when she menstruates she neither prays nor fasts?” When they replied, “Yes,” he said, “That pertains to the deficiency of her religion.”
(Bukhari and Muslim.)
وَعَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَضْحًى أَوْ فِطْرٍ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى فَمَرَّ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ فَقَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ تَصَدَّقْنَ فَإِنِي أُرِيتُكُنَّ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ فَقُلْنَ وَبِمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ تُكْثِرْنَ اللَّعْنَ وَتَكْفُرْنَ الْعَشِيرَ مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ نَاقِصَاتِ عَقْلٍ وَدِينٍ أَذْهَبَ لِلُبِّ الرجل الحازم من إحداكن قُلْنَ وَمَا نُقْصَانُ دِينِنَا وَعَقْلِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ أَلَيْسَ شَهَادَةُ الْمَرْأَةِ مِثْلَ نِصْفِ شَهَادَةِ الرَّجُلِ قُلْنَ بَلَى قَالَ فَذَلِكَ مِنْ نُقْصَان عقلهَا أَلَيْسَ إِذَا حَاضَتْ لَمْ تَصِلِّ وَلَمْ تَصُمْ قُلْنَ بَلَى قَالَ فَذَلِكَ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ دِينِهَا

This expression is not used in the Quran and in no other context in the Hadith. The explanation that Shehzad sahab provided is ample for any student of the language as well as Islam. If you come across any other explanation, please don’t hesitate to share.

Brother Saad, and other brothers can back me on this.
Delete this concept and thoughts:
(deficiency of or in any type between men and women NONE zero) (less in responsibility NONE 0) backed by Quran verses.
Now responsibility can be different or can be switch between men and women But, no deficiencies of any kind or less responsibility of any kind. I hope this helps. Continue to dig, and ask questions 😊. Stick with Quran.

ASA brother saad, brother in video clip did his best, and in his great efforts to clear any confusion regarding your question. But raised more questions for me 😊, Brother in clip used word “چھوٹ” “exempt”, this create another question of confusion “why women are exempt from Islam duties?” The right choice of word would be “break” توڑ Quran gives women break, when it’s necessary due to natural phenomena or other reasons in performing Islamic duties.
Your taking this literature into consideration is nothing but, great confusion itself, and will be more if you pay more attention to this literature.
Keeping it simple. Quran does not, support, nor give evidence of as such literature, nor speak of men and women inferior to one other nor prophet swa would have used wording like as described in Hadith literature. Since Hadith literature is open source any one can make changes or describe as they like in their own words until it passed millions of people then comes to scholars attention then it gets discredit but, great damage, confusion has already done it’s job by that time.
My whole pure purpose for this explanation is that master Quran first then bring other literature as you would have way better understanding of that.
Stay focus to Quran.

Saad, you’re asking the exact same question that the video is trying to address. If there’s some unclarity in what the video has explained then please feel free to ask that. However, the video has already provided the basis of argument for translating it in a way that’s different from the more popular way.
