Islamic feminism seeks to argue for women's rights and gender equality within an Islamic framework through reinterpreting religious texts and challenging patriarchal readings of scripture. However, Islamic feminism remains controversial as it challenges traditional Muslim conceptions of women's roles and status derived from established Islamic jurisprudence. By reexamining Islamic doctrine, Islamic feminists aim to make the case that the spirit of equality, justice, and compassion in the Quran and hadith support women having equal basic rights and opportunities as men.
