Talking about women’s leadership in politics and Islamic law, there were differences of opinion. In Islamic Sharia, which is comprehensive, elastic, dynamic and flexible, it determines the criteria that must be possessed by a leader, among others, fair, has scientific capacity (world and the hereafter), physical and mental health.

However, at the level of reality, there are still many challenges and obstacles, both internally and externally, and the fact that occurs in the community is often not by the above statement, where discrimination and injustice still happen to women. This article will explain some of the problems of women’s leadership both from a political perspective and an Islamic legal perspective. According to the author, it is essential to discuss to provide an overview of the position of women in politics, and how Islamic law views women as leaders, moreover it can provide an understanding of the community how women are placed in politics.
