Gendered Morality

Book •
Zahra Ayyubi's work explores the intersection of gender and moral thought in Islamic philosophy, uncovering how classical thinkers often embedded gendered assumptions into their accounts of rationality and ethical agency.

The book analyzes texts by major figures to show how exclusions and hierarchies were philosophically justified and the implications for contemporary ethical and interpretive debates.

Saemi and Haqqani reference this scholarship to highlight historical biases that inform scripture-first and philosopher-driven views on moral epistemology.

The study contributes to feminist interventions in Islamic philosophy and ethics.
