abstract = {The idea of reforming Islam is gaining more and more popularity with West European and American Muslim intellectuals. Although the kind and magnitude of the suggested changes may vary, yet the necessity to alter the status of women in Islamic societies and communities is being widely admitted. In this context the studies and analyzes prepared by the Muslim women, who by exploring the sources of Islamic religion and legislation indicate the direction of such changes, deserve a special attention. By living in the Western Europe they rely on Muslim and European tradition alike, thus adding a new dimension to the discussion upon the role and position of women in Islam. The article deals with the pro equal rights activity undertaken by Amina Wadud, Leila Ahmed, Zahra Ali and Fadela Amara.},
