<![CDATA[The study of gender cannot be separated from theological studies, because all religions have special treatment for women. The position of women in several religions and beliefs is placed as second class. As a result, the condition of women continues to be in a state of loss because of religious pretexts or legitimacy. This article discusses the basis of gender stereotypes in Islam, gender biased interpretation of the Qur’an, and gender equality in Islamic culture in Java. This study uses a library research approach. The result is that the Qur’an has explicitly tried to increase the dignity of women.

Further research is needed that specifically addresses the role of Muslim women in the current era.]]>
