How does Islam protect Women from violence?

--
Islam means "Peace" - achieved when a person focuses on God, giving
her entire mind, heart and soulto none other than the Creator. This
liberates her from human subjection; replacing fear with self-respect;
weakness with strength, and conflict with tranquility. God says in the
Qur'an: "…do not fear human beings, but be in awe of Me." (Qur'an
5:44)
Islam strongly prohibits oppression or cruelty to any individual,
group or living thing in the universe.God enjoins good conduct toward
women from birth to death. Verbal, psychological, emotional, sexual,
and physical violence are forbidden, as are false allegations against
women's chastity and honor. Men are further reminded: "Do not annoy
women as to make their lives miserable." (Qur'an 65:6).
Prophet Muhammad said:"Only an honorable man treat women with honor
and integrity. And only a mean, deceitful and dishonest man humiliates
and insults women." Referring to physical abuse,he added: "Never hit
your wives, they are your partners and sincere helpers." He
exemplified this by never, ever, hitting a women or child. The Prophet
guaranteed protection of the life, honor, and property of women.
"And why should you not fight in the cause of God and on behalf of
those, who being weak, are ill-treated and oppressed, men, women and
children whose cry is, 'Our Lord! Rescue us from these oppressors, and
raise for us, from You, one who will protect and help.'" (Qur'an 4:75)

Muslim Weddings Islamic Marriage Khutbah (Wedding Speech)

--
Women celebrating at an Egyptian open air wedding
This is a typical Muslim nikah khutbah (wedding speech) that would be
given by an Imam at a Muslim wedding. This particular speech was
translated from Arabic, I believe. I do not know the author's name:
Wedding Khutbah
"Thanks be to Allah that we praise Him, pray to Him for help; ask Him
for pardon; we believe in Him,We trust Him; and ask Himto guard us
from the evil of our own souls and fromthe evil consequences of our
own deeds. Whomsoever He leaves straying no one can guide him. I bear
witness that there is no God save Allah, who has no partner, and I
bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, whom He has
sent with truth as a bringer of good news and a warner.
The best word is the book of Allah, and the best way is that of
Muhammad, on whom be peace. The worst of all things are innovations
and every innovation leads astray, and every thing that leads astray
leads to Hell.
Whosoever obeys Allah and His messenger will be guided aright and
whosoever disobeys will cause loss to his own self (and thereafter).
Hereafter,I ask the refuge of Allah from Shaytan, the outcast.
O mankind! Be careful of your duty to your Lord who created you from a
single soul and from it created its mate and from them twain hath
spread abroad a multitude of men and women. be careful of your duty
towards Allah in whom you claim (yourrights) of one another, and
toward the wombs (that bear you). Lo, Allah hath been a watcher over
you. [Surah Al Nisa' 4:1]
O ye who believe! Observe your duty to Allah with right observance,
and die not save as those who have surrendered (unto Him). [Surah Ali
'Imran 3:102]
O ye who believe! Guard your duty to Allah, and speak words straight
to the point; He will adjust your works for you and will forgive you
your sins. Whosoever obeyethAllah and His messenger,he verily hath
gained a signal victory. [Surah Al Ahzab 33:70-71]"
Marriage is one of the most important acts of worship in Islam. The
Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu layhi Wasallam) has told us how to live
as Muslims. One of the branches of faith is marriage. It has been thus
narrated in a Hadeeth that when a person marries, he has complete half
of his religion and so he should fear Allah regarding the remaining
half.
Shame, modesty, moral and social values and control of self desire are
just a few of the many teachings of Islam. Furthermore, these are just
a few of the many worships that a person can complete by performing
the ritual of marriage. Through marriage a person can be saved from
many shameless and immoral sins and through marriagehe has is more
able to control his desire. Therefore, the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi
Wa Sallam) has said:
"O young men! Whoever is able to marry should marry, for that will
help him to lower his gaze and guard his modesty." [Sahih al-Bukhari]
Marriage is a strong oath that takes place between the man and women
in this world, but its blessings and contract continues even in
Jannah. It is the way of our beloved Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa
Sallam), and whosoever goes against this practice has been
reprimanded.
Hadhrat Anas ibn Malik narrates:
A group of three men came to the houses of the wives of the Prophet
(Sallallaahu layhi Wasallam) asking how theProphet worshipped (Allah),
and when they were informed about that,they considered their worship
insufficient and said:
"Where are we compared to the Prophet as his past and future sins have
been forgiven?"
Then one of them said: "I will offer the prayer throughout the night forever."
The other said: "I will fast throughout the year and will not break my fast."
The third said: "I will keepaway from the women and will not marry forever."
Allah's Apostle came to them and said, "Are you the same people who
said so-and-so? By Allah,I am more submissive toAllah and more afraid
of Him than you; yet I fast and break my fast, I do sleep and I also
marry women. So he who doesnot follow my tradition in religion, is not
from me (from my followers)." [Sahih al-Bukhari]
Therefore, Islamically, we are all encouraged to get married and not
turn away from the ways of our beloved Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa
Salaam). It should be remembered that this duty of marriage is for
both men and women. Just as men complete half their religion through
this act, it is also the same for women. However, in today's time,
there are many marriage-related issues which arise in people's lives,
as today wesee many people abusing the laws of marriage in Islam. /- -
