https://doi.org/10.53762/alqamar.05.04.e07Abstract
The women make up more than half of the worldwide people but they still confront numerous challenges in proving their empowered status. Especially Muslim women are portrayed as oppressive gender in a lot of literature and media. Women empowerment (WE), on the other hand, is a hotly disputed topic in underdeveloped countries. Women's empowerment is widely acknowledged as essential for social changes, political stability, economic progress, and poverty reduction in emerging countries. Aside from the fact, Islam encourages women to be self-sufficient. The semantic description of term has provided in this study whether it's difficult to go through all of the concepts related to the “empowerment.”
