(Analysis of secular and Islamic feminism)

Abstract

 This article provides information on the adoption of international legal instruments, conventions and pacts to protect women. Women, who make up about half of the world’s population, are an important driving force in society. They are now active in almost every aspect of the state and society. It should be noted that women are becoming specialists in their field, no matter what direction they work. The article also analyzes the views of the founders, Western and Eastern scholars on the role and importance of women in society. In order to study the feminism movement in more depth, it is analyzed in two parts, namely, secular and Islamic feminism. In fact, the only goal is to see in detail the fact that the two currents of feminism, which envisage freedom and equality, move in specific directions, based on certain sources and principles. In the course of its implementation, the mutually similar aspects of secular and Islamic feminism, as well as their mutually exclusive, different aspects, were highlighted. The article concludes with what the feminism movement has given to women around the world, the importance of reforms, the shortcomings and solutions available.
