Arabic term

النساء شقائق الرجال

Arabic to English Other Religion Hadith
هذا نصٌ لحديثِ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم" النساء شقائق الرجال
I wasn’t sure if you would say:
Women are sisters of men
Women are half brothers of men
Women are partners of men
Women are brothers of men

Which text would reserve the original meaning of the Arabic version.
Or, if you have any other suggestion that would be great.

Thank you so much.

Women are the twin halves of men

Women are the twin halves of men
And in the words of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW),

"Assuredly, women are the twin halves of men." (Sahih reported by Abu-Dawud (RA)

Islam does not blame Eve alone for the First Sin. The Quran makes it very clear that both Adam and Eve were tempted, that they both sinned and were both forgiven after their repentance. Allah (SWT) says in the Quran:

Women are similar to men

حيث أنه طبقا للموسوعة الحديثية المصغرة (صحيح الجامع) فإن تفسير الحديث النساء شقائق الرجال أي أمثالهم كذا قرره البعض وأولى منه قول بعض العارفين  :  إنما كن شقائق الرجال لأن حواء خلقت من آدم عليه الصلاة والسلام

women are men's sisters

معنى الحديث أن الرجال و النساء إخوة و أخوات أى من منبع واحد فكلاهما مولود من أم واحدة و أب واحد و لا فرق بين الأخوة فى المعاملة و ما يترتب عليه المساواة و العدالة و ما إلى ذلك
أى لابد من ترجمة المعنى المباشر المتعلق بالأخوة
لا يوجد حديث ينص على أن الرجل و المرأة متساويان بل كل منهم له حقوق وواجبات و كل نفس لها ما كسبت
فمن الخطأ ترجمة الحديث بالمساواة أو التشابه بينهم

Women are the twin parts of men

Slightly different because the idea of "half" is not in the original and might induce an idea of inferiority which is absent (at least from this hadith).

Women as men / women and men are equals

تفسير الحديث
ان ما يسرى على الرجال من الحدود يسرى على النساء
اذ سئل الرسول هل اذا ما احتلمت النساء يجب الغسل فأجاب الرسول
بأن النساء شقائق الرجال اى يجب عليهن ما يجب على الرجل
