Abstract :
The current research was intended to examine the woman character from the Qur’an point of view compared to the feminism theories. The statistical universe of the research included the Qur’an point of view and the feminism theories. The sample enfolded the text of the Quran and the feminism texts considering the woman character. The conducted method of the research was descriptive analytical. The data was collected via library method. Finally, the data was analyzed. The results indicated that character is one of the main topics in the field of psychology; and many psychologists such as Jung, Frankel and Allport consider having a religious value system as an important part of mental health. Psychologists have often paid attention to the role of value from the perspective of identifying and formation of the individuals’ character. The character of a woman in the Holy Qur'an is a comprehensive image that the religion of Islam had presented in its descriptions, values and rights of the character of a Muslim woman. The status of women in the Qur'an is such that a chapter(surah) of the Qur'an is called "Nisaa" (women). And in other chapters of the Qur'an, there are issues related to the rights and dignity of women. In Islamic culture, according to the Qur'an, the status and position of men and women is the same. Feminists claimed complete and uniform equality and far from any difference in the rights of all human beings, both men and women. Islam does not approve any of the feminist branches and views. Today, many women have realized that the goal of feminism was to create a false belief in women to always understand discrimination from any difference. In religious texts, the doctrine of equality has no place, and religious literature in defense of women is proportional literature.
The Holy Quran.
