Abstract

The goal of this research is to return to the contribution of Professor and chair of Arabic language and literature at Ayn Shams University, the scholar, thinker, and writer  ͑Ᾱ'isha Abdel Raḥmān [Bint Al-Shāṭi'] (d. 1998) in defending the right of Egyptian women to education and work and recognition of women's literary subjectivity and the issue of Women's Emancipation in Islam in her works: Ṣuwar min Hayātihinna: Min al-Ḥarīm ilā al-Jāmi ͑a [Portrays from their lives: From the Harem to the University (1953)], Al-Shā ͑ira al- ͑Arabiyya al-Mu ͑āṣira [The Contemporary Arab Poet (1963)], Sayyidāt Bayt al-Nubuwwa [Biographies of Ladies of the Household of Prophethood (1987)], Al-Mafhum al-Islāmī l-Taḥrīr al-Mar'a [The Islamic Conception of Women's Emancipation (1967)].  Reviewing these works will give us the opportunity to look at how the religious and literary sciences and cognitive awareness developed from a lever for Arab feminism according to  ͑Ᾱ'isha Abdel Raḥmān to a dynamic academic intellectual trend that arose in Morocco and abroad - the “Islamic Feminism".  We will learn about the approach of Asmā' al-Murābiṭ (b. 1961-),as a facet of “Islamic feminism" in the Arab World, in her pioneering work Al-Qur'an wa-l Nissā': Qirā'a lil-Taḥrur [The Qur'an and Women: A Reading for Emancipation (2010)], which was launched by the Center for Research and Studies on Women's Issues in Islam at the Muhammadiyah Association of Scholars at the opening cermony of the Center (2010), Al-Nissā' wa-l Rijāl fi-l Qur'an: Ayyatu Mussāwāt? [On women and men in the Qur'an: What equality?  (2015)].  Al-Murābiṭ's works represent one of the achievements recognized by Morocco in cooperation between the political authority, the jurisprudential system, and the Moroccan feminist movement in order to rebuild knowledge about religious concepts, and to re-read religious texts from the Qur'an and Hadith according to a comprehensive vision - “meaning the comprehensive vision - which we need to resume and rebuild from our Islamic civilizational system.  “And the resulting development of the “Family Code," which became the model for reform in personal status codes in the Arab world
