Sustainable Development,, Islam,, Gender equality, Women empowermentAbstract
This study will investigate the role of women in achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs) in Islam, especially gender equality and women empowerment in the modern world. The source and method of data collection and analysis will be based on the qualitative approach, which involves textual analysis, and data will be collected from books and journal articles. To reach the goals of this research, we will examine how women contribute to achieving sustainable development goals in line with Islamic principles. The Islamic approach is crucial for reaching these goals as it emphasizes a balanced realization of human rights, consumer welfare, social justice, ecological balance, and economic progress. Achieving these aims is not possible without the active involvement of women. The study will also investigate gender equality issues related to sustainable development goals, exploring the scientific approach Islam provides to women's rights and roles in various sectors like social, economic, political, religious, and educational domains. Islam grants them an independent identity and provides their inheritance rights, marriage, and participation in developing sectors. Overall, this research will evaluate the role of women in achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs), which are focused on gender equality and women empowerment based on Islam.
