Ayatollah Shirazi  believes we  should always in every circumstance observe and respect the boundaries of  women and places women in a very high position in society. One of the most important positions  of women is the mother of the children and our future generations and  the first teacher of the child. Women should also always  freely pursue education and become role models for the future generations to follow in their footsteps  to strengthen families and general society.  It is also mentioned in the wealth of books from the Shirazi family that it’s extremely  important to  maintain an atmosphere in the household where no one party forces the other to work in the house or for the house and that this can make the household peaceful and happy. This serves as a reminder that we must treat  Allah swt women with honor and respect and empower them at all times .
