Abstract

In the present era, talking about women's issues and how to empower them and ensure gender justice is a common and dominant discourse in civilized societies, and since half of every society is made up of women, addressing issues related to women is of great importance. Given the importance of the discussion, especially since Western civilization is increasingly expanding its dominance over the cultures of countries by removing indicators whose validity is seriously in doubt, this article, in a problem-oriented study and by applying a descriptive-analytical method, has examined the requirements and necessities of women's empowerment in the opinions of the revolutionary leadership as the person responsible for the macro-management of the Islamic society. The results of the research indicate that three key elements regarding women's empowerment can be identified and extracted in the opinions of His Highness: 1- Avoiding the propaganda culture of the West in the field of women's issues. 2- Paying attention to the great religious heritage and adopting a faithful lifestyle according to the teachings of the Quran and Sunnah. 3- The necessity of respecting priorities regarding women's issues and the importance of the family as the most central center for the role of Muslim women.
