Women in medieval times islamic art

[canavare]

Recently I have found this Image archive depicting Muhammed in full.
For the muslims the interesting point regarding to this archieve is that it demonstrates depicting Muhammed's face is not forbidden until 16th century.

But for me the interesting point of this images (miniatures) are that they demonstrate ( even ) in medieval times there is a strong cultural program and/or a social engineering in islam regarding to the enslavement and controlling of the women which influences islamic art. Starting from the image 14. Miniature illustration from the book Jami' al-Tawarikh ''The Mi'raj (also called the "Night Ride") of Mohammed on Buraq'' is depicted.

if you look especially at the miniatures (images) 20. , 21. ,22. and 30. the following parts of the Mi'raj story depicted respectively:

Mohammed, along with Buraq and Gabriel, visit Hell, and see a demon punishing "shameless women" who had exposed their hair to strangers. For this crime of inciting lust in men, the women are strung up by their hair and burned for eternity. Persian, 15th century.

Next, Mohammed sees women strung up by hooks thrust through their tongues by a green demon. Their crimes were to "mock" their husbands and to leave their homes without permission. Persian, 15th century.

Further on, Mohammed sees a red demon that is torturing women by hanging them up by hooks through their breasts, as they are engulfed in flames. The women are being punished for giving birth to illegitimate children whom they falsely claimed were fathered by their husbands. Persian, 15th century.

Detail of Mohammed from the picture above, in Paradise with beautiful females.
