Why You Need To Understand Feminism

 
 

If you have grown up and proceeded through the education system in the west, then the liberal feminist perspective on life is all you would have been taught. The word "feminism" may not be explicitly used; regardless, the only life goals promoted to teenage girls are obtaining an education and working.

The only role models offered to them are feminist icons women such as Mary Wollstonecraft, Emmeline Pankhurst, Michelle Obama and Malala Yousafzai. Netflix shows, books and movies all cement these ideas, so it's no surprise that so many women (Muslim and non-Muslim) sleepwalk into adopting feminist ideas. After all, who is promoting an alternative?

Feminists attack Islam

No one can deny that feminism has become the dominant discourse around women's rights. It influences men's and women's views regarding gender roles, family, and marriage. The feminist perspective around these issues has become the standard by which Islam's view of both genders' roles and rights are judged.

Most feminists deem Islam to be patriarchal and backward and encourage Muslim women to either reject its laws or call for rules relating to family, reproductive rights, and sexuality to be reformed.

If you want to understand feminism without having to read lots of time-consuming books and from the comfort of your home, then you need to enrol in my new online course: Islam and feminism. It's suitable for absolute beginners.

This unique course intelligently explores all the questions you have about feminism and Islam. Each lesson explains what feminism says about a specific topic i.e. marriage, relationships, sexual objectification, gender roles, LGBTQI+ and then gives the Islamic perspective.

I have created this course for Muslims because there is no other comprehensive up-to-date Islam and feminism course online. Gain clarity. Start learning today.⁠
