Islam views men and women as equal in terms of their spiritual worth and value. Though there are certain gender-specific rights in Islam, both men and women have equal opportunities for spiritual growth and development.
Some aspects of Islamic law may appear to give men more power than women, but this is a misinterpretation, and the faith aims to provide justice and fairness to both genders.
However, there are instances in which cultural practices have resulted in gender discrimination and injustice in some Muslim societies, and this is happening similar to all human communities.

Here are the Quran promote gender equality in Islam:

- "O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted." (49:13)
- "And do not wish for that by which Allah has made some of you exceed others. For men is a share of what they have earned, and for women is a share of what they have earned. And ask Allah of his bounty. Indeed Allah is ever, of all things, Knowing." (4:32)
- "And whoever does righteous deeds, whether male or female, and is a believer - those will enter Paradise and will not be wronged, [even as much as] the speck on a date seed." (4:124)

Similarly, there are hadiths (sayings of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him) that support the idea of gender equality in Islam:

- "Women are the twin halves of men." (Sunan Abu Dawud 236, Book 12, Hadith 234)
- "Do not prevent women from (the freedom of) their rizq." (Sunan Abu Dawud, Volume 2, Book 11, Hadith 2144)
- "The best of you is the one who is best to his wife." (Sunan Ibn Majah 1977, Book 9, Hadith 1992)

A few verses from the Quran that emphasizes the Oneness of Allah (SWT):

- "Say, "He is Allah, [who is] One, Allah, the Eternal Refuge. He neither begets nor is born, Nor is there to Him any equivalent." (Surah Al-Ikhlas, 112:1-4)

- "There is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills.
His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great." (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:255)

- "All praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds." (Surah Al-Fatihah, 1:2)

These verses and many others in the Quran emphasize the oneness of Allah (SWT) and His unique position as the Creator and Sustainer of the universe. The belief in the Oneness of Allah (SWT) is the foundation of Islamic faith and a fundamental principle of Islamic theology.
