Quranic Feminism

Quranic feminism is an approach that interprets the Quran to promote gender equality, emphasizing that Islamic teachings support women's rights and dignity. It seeks to understand the Quran's messages contextually, highlighting verses that affirm women’s equal spiritual worth and challenge patriarchal practices. Quranic feminists work to reconcile faith with contemporary ideas of justice, advocating for equal access to education, participation in society, and freedom from discrimination—all while respecting religious beliefs. This perspective encourages a reinterpretation of religious texts in ways that empower women within an Islamic framework.
