Abstract | Education is considered a universal human right, crucial for individual success and economic prosperity in developing nations and worldwide. In Islam, education is viewed as integral to religious freedom and a right equally afforded to all believers. Globally, education is recognized as a fundamental entitlement for both genders. Islamic teachings emphasize the imperative nature of acquiring knowledge and education. This duty is incumbent upon every Muslim, regardless of gender. However, significant disparities persist between Quranic teachings and their practical implementation, particularly concerning the education of girls and women. In Muslim-majority countries, literacy and educational attainment rates for girls and women rank among the lowest worldwide. Centuries of patriarchal and traditional values have placed heavy burdens on women in these communities. Despite progress in women’s education rights in Muslim-majority states and globally, true equality remains elusive. Islamic teachings explicitly condemn gender discrimination, yet many Muslim-majority countries are among the lowest ranked in global gender equality indices. Women must recognize and understand their right to education and be sufficiently encouraged and empowered to pursue it. Education plays a crucial role in addressing discrimination against women in Islamic societies and is essential for fostering equality in a modern and progressive society. |
