Islamski feminizam

**Islamski feminizam** je oblik feminizma koji se bavi pitanjima žena u islamu. On nastoji postići potpunu jednakost muslimana, bez obzira na spol i rod, u javnom i privatnom životu. Islamske feministkinje promiču ženska prava, jednakost spolova i društvenu pravdu u okviru islama. Iako se islamski feminizam svoj temelj ima u islamu, neki od pionira pokreta su se također koristili elemenitima sekularnog i zapadnog feminizma, te se islamski feminizam često smatra dijelom integralnog globalnog feminističkog pokreta. Pristaše pokreta daju naglasak na učenje u jednakosti u Kuranu i nastoje propitivati patrijarhalno tumačenje islamskog nauka kroz Kuran, *[[hadith]]* (Muhamedove izreke) i *[[šerijat]]' (pravo) kako bi stvorile društvo pravde i jednakosti. Islamski feminizam se općenito smatra jednim od [[Liberalni pokreti u islamu|liberalnih pokreta u islamu]].
