   I am curious as to what this means, From the Prophet Muhammad`s (PBUH) Farewell Sermon: 
"Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with any one of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste."
Does this mean that the men have the right to determine who your friends are?  
I am trying to make sense of this. 
Thanks.
