By Lopa Hussain and Adnan Khan. Nothing has received more vilification from commentators and writers across the world than the issue of Islam's view on women. Images of fully covered women, with veils across their faces, leap to mind whenever the media discusses the issue. The treatment of women in any society has become a key benchmark measurement to its progress, so when the Muslim world is assessed, it miserably fails on the standard Western tests ranging from the treatment of women to their involvement in society. Such measurement has led to a number of ferocious attacks on Islam including the continuous vilification campaign against Islam and its view on women, the banning of hijab and so on. Whilst there are some sincere misconceptions in the West with regards to Islam and women, at the same time the hatred against Islam is a consistent feature in Western newspapers and magazines.
