I disagree with your suggestions that the educated women tilt the picture. As much issues as west may have, it has one thing for women that some of the other so-called islamic countries don't have. CHOICE.

Its all a matter of choice, is it not? If I am not given a choice to decide whether I will stay at home or work or be educated or not, how do I know whether I have been given my rights or not. Once given the choice, it is my decision and then be allowed to follow the decision.

All the educated women show is that there is a choice. I am a converted muslim living in united states, working and managing my husband's home, BY CHOICE.

People usually feel suffocated when others are making their decisions for them.  Just like men, women should be given their choices. You will be amazed how well people react when given a choice. Because then they know that they are responsible for their own actions and hence will try to make the correct choice.

As you said, and I quote, "Look at the lives of the wives of the Holy Prophet (pbuh), when they were asked to either demand their rights or live with the Holy Prophet (pbuh), they chose the latter. Allah promised them a better reward in the Hereafter. "

They were given a choice and they CHOSE and Allah promised them a better reward. So why not give the same choice to all women.
