  • Qasim Amin (1863–1908) was an Egyptian jurist and one of the founders of the Egyptian national movement and Cairo University. Born to an Upper Egyptian mother and an Kurdish father who had served as an administrator in Kurdistan then Egypt, Amin is perhaps most noted as an early advocate of women's rights in Egyptian society. His 1899 book The Liberation of Women (Tahrir al mara’a) and its 1900 sequel The New Woman (al mara’a al jadida) examined the question of why Egypt had fallen under European power, despite centuries of Egyptian learning and civilisation, and concluded that the explanation was the low social and educational standing of Egyptian women. Amin pointed out the plight of aristocratic Egyptian women who could be kept as a "prisoner in her own house and worse off than a slave". He made this criticism from a basis of Islamic scholarship and said that women should develop intellectually in order to be competent to bring up the nation's children. This would happen only if they were freed from the seclusion which was forced upon them by "the man's decision to imprison his wife" and given the chance to become educated. Some contemporary feminist scholars, notably Leila Ahmed, have challenged his status as the supposed "father of Egyptian feminism". Ahmed points out that in the gender-segregated society of the time, Amin could have had very little contact with Egyptian women other than immediate family, servants, and possibly prostitutes. His portrait of Egyptian women as backward, ignorant, and lagging behind their European "sisters" was therefore based on very limited evidence.
  • Qasim Amin war ein ägyptischer Jurist. Seine bekanntesten Werke sind "Die Befreiung der Frau" (Tahrir Al-Mar`ah – 1899) und "Die neue Frau" (Al-Mar`ah Al-Jadidah – 1901). Amin war ein Schüler des berühmten ägyptischen Reformtheologen Muhammad Abduh (1849-1905). Er gilt als ein wichtiger muslimischer Feminist seiner Zeit. Qasim Amin war nicht der erste, der zur Emanzipation der Frau aus liberaler Sicht schrieb, aber er war der bekannteste und wirkungsvollste. Ihm vorangegangen war der Algerier Muhammad ibn Mustafa ibn al-Khawga, dessen Buch al-Iktirath fi huquq al-inath („Beachtung der Sorge um die Rechte der Frau“) 1895 erschien, also vier Jahre vor Qasim Amins „Befreiung der Frau“ und fünf Jahre vor seinem zweiten Buch „Die neue Frau“. Die von Oskar Rescher ins Deutsche übertragene Übersetzung von "Die Befreiung der Frau" wurde 1992 vom Echter Verlag (Würzburg) und Oros Verlag (Altenberge) herausgegeben. Amins liberales Engagement wurde später von Männern wie Ali Abd Ar-Raziq weitergeführt, der sich in seinem Hauptwerk Al-Islam Wa Usul Al-Hukm ("Der Islam und die Grundlagen der Herrschaft" - 1925) jedoch hauptsächlich mit dem Verhältnis von Staat und Religion im Islam befasste.

  • Qasim Amin was een Egyptisch jurist die het vrouwenvraagstuk in Egypte op de agenda plaatste met de stelling dat de bevrijding van de vrouw een essentiële voorwaarde is voor de bevrijding van de Egyptische maatschappij van buitenlandse overheersing. In zijn boek The Liberation of Women (1899) onderbouwde hij zijn stelling met passages uit de koran en ahadieth van de Profeet Mohammed, die volgens hem gelijkwaardigheid der seksen inhielden. Hiermee riep hij natuurlijk de kritiek van het hof en van religieuze leiders, journalisten en schrijvers over zich af. Als antwoord benaderde hij het vraagstuk op een meer westerse manier in zijn boek The New Woman (1900). Beide boeken hebben nog niets aan actualiteit ingeboet.

Emin, bu durumu İslami ilimler temelinde eleştirmiştir. Emin, İslam ülkelerindeki kadın hareketinde önemli bir yere sahip olan eseri "Tahrir al-Mara"'yi (Kadınların Özgürleşmesi) cahil, tembel ve eğitime ihtiyacı olduğu düşünülen aristokratik Mısır kadınının koşullarını dile getirmek için kaleme aldı. Kasım Emin'in "Abudiat al-Mara" (Kadınların Köleliği) adlı eserinden; "Şüphesiz ki erkeklerin karılarını hapsetme kararı kadınların doğal hakları olan özgürlükle çelişki arzetmektedir... Bir hizmetçinin görevleri haricinde kendini eğitmesi yasaklanan veya eğitim arzusu sınırlanmış kadın kesinlikle bir köledir çünkü doğal içgüdüleri ve Tanrı vergisi yetenekleri, ahlaki köleleştirmeye eşdeğer olarak ikincil plana atılmıştır. Tamamiyle -kolları, bacakları, bedeni- örtülü olduğundan zorunluluk haricinde yürüyemez, bineğe binemez, nefes alamaz, göremez olmak köle olmak hükmündedir."
