Women as Ruby and Pearl in the Qur’an
Abstract
Qur’an is a layered book. This layered structure not just exist in the book as a whole but in every single verse in it. What is meant here by layered is not just literal and metaphorical meanings of the text but also the diversity of the literal meanings. This special structure which can be explained as “the meanings of the meaning” is important for Qur’an to be understood more effectively and comprehensively. In this context 58th verse of Surah Rahman by saying “As if they were rubies and pearls” both addresses the features of women of heaven that exceed their worldly beauties and their projection in the world. A mature character, preserving one’s identity and dignity while integrating into society, peace, patience, resistance, purity, clearness, and manners are the projections of the said simile in the verse. In other words, these features belong to women who are worthy of heaven. The simile in question also provides data in terms of educational methods. Revolutionary education which would increase the value of people and accelerate positive changes is only possible if the important milestones that would set it in motion are known. This must be one of the secrets underlying the education miracle of the Prophet, who is also likened to ruby in Islamic culture.
