Detailed Solution

The above statement is False. Islam's views on women's testimony are debatable. The attitudes of Muslim civilizations range from outright rejection of female testimony in some judicial contexts to conditional acceptance (worth only half that of a man or requiring male evidence to be supported) to the outright favour of it without any gender bias. The Qur'an requests two men, one man, and two women as witnesses for financial paperwork. Many Muslim scholars understand this to mean that the testimony of two women is equivalent to that of one male. According to Tafsir Ibn Kathir, Allah demands that two women serve as witnesses in place of one man due to the flaws that the Prophet identified in women.
The correct statement is that the testimony of men and women is not equal in Saudi Arabia.
