<![CDATA[Although the concepts of gender equality in Islam are continuously debated in many Muslim communities due to its patriarchal system in running family life, there are new discourses over gender equality proposed by Muslim scholars to reconstruct old Islamic jurist’s views of gender perspective in Muslim family life in which they come up with the concept of equality of gender order in Islam which is in line with the gender perspective in global context that upholds the rights and justices for all gender identity. This research will examine the construction of gender equality in Islamic teaching and its implementation in Bima local culture. This research used a qualitative approach. The techniques of data collection and analysis used literature studies and internet observations.
