The evidence of the Koran supports this opinion and is widely narrated by the Prophet's friends. Meanwhile, in matters relating to rights and property, such as divorce, reconciliation, gifts, wills, etc., women's testimony is permitted, whether together with men or consisting of several women, based on several historical reports. This can be taken into consideration considering that women in this century have received education like men, they generally also work outside the home. Likewise, the flow of information is very fast in the midst of society, reaching far to remote villages. Research also shows that women's memory and intellectual abilities are potentially no different from men.]]>
