(Surah Al-Baqarah ,verse 201)
Share 
the portion of two females ..." (Noble Qur'an 4:176)
A person well known for his knowledge and virtues came to Imam Hasan
Askari (as) and asked, "Women are naturally weaker than men. Then why
is it that they are given one share in inheritance? And men, despite
their strength are given two shares? Justice demands that it should be
on the contrary".
Imam Hasan Askari (as) said, "You have seen apparent weakness of women
but have not reflected on the duties of men and women. The
difficulties of men are much more than those of women. Jihad is
incumbent on men and not on women; the responsibility of earning
livelihood rests on men and not on women; the maintenance of women is
on men. Then in such circumstances if the share of men is double, is
it against justice and equity?"
Once somebody asked Imam Hasan Askari (as), "Whom does the verse refer
to: 'Nay! These are clear communications in the breasts of those who
are granted knowledge; and none deny Our communications except the
unjust.' ( Noble Qur'an29:49)?" Imam Hasan Askari (as) replied, "It
refers to us - the Ahlul Bayt".
