In Surah Mujadila (58:1) It highlights the importance of a woman's stance and her right to express her concerns and complaints. It demonstrates that Allah is aware of the conversations and arguments that take place between individuals, including those involving a woman and her husband.

This verse affirms that Allah hears the dialogue and complaints of women, emphasizing that He is All-Hearing and All-Seeing. It signifies that Allah is attentive to the grievances and concerns of women, and He acknowledges their right to seek justice and resolution. It encourages women to turn to Allah in prayer and supplication, seeking guidance and support in difficult situations.

At the same time, it is important to note that this verse does not imply that women are inherently weaker or in need of delicate measures due to the strength of men. Rather, it highlights the importance of addressing disputes and conflicts within marital relationships with wisdom, patience, and fairness.

Islam promotes the concept of mutual respect, understanding, and cooperation between spouses. It encourages open communication, active listening, and the fair resolution of conflicts. This verse reinforces the idea that both men and women have the right to express their concerns and have their voices heard, and it emphasizes the role of Allah as the ultimate arbiter and source of guidance.

By following the teachings of Al Mujadila, believers can gain a better understanding of how to maintain a sense of safety in Allah's guidance and support.
