The Quran is a very consistent book. There are no inconsistencies in it. There is only one version of the Quran. Interpretations may be different, but they cannot veer too far from the truth, otherwise their value becomes extinct. If the scholars say that voting is permissible for women, then on the basis of what they have interpreted out of what they have studied, then that is true. It is also true that the Prophet( peace be upon him) had urged the Muslim community to acquire knowledge, even if it meant going as far as China from Arabia. Even in this instance, no distinction between male of female is made.
