Pakistani born - immigrated to Canada when I was 3-4. In a lot of culturally backwards parts of the middle east, I'd say you'd be correct. Although in my experience with my family that hasn't really been a problem. I have many aunts and uncles who have solid marriages where both parties work and have careers. Granted my family assimilated really well, but for the most part if the husband in the marriage starts to mistreat his wife, the whole extended family hears about it and ends up shaming him.
My advice is to see if the man interprets Islam with a rational and compassionate lens or just listens to some of the radical islamic propaganda that gets spread around in muslim communities. Lmao that's just my two cents, lmk if you have any questions
