Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this study is to show how Islam as a divine religion and complete system, among other things, deals in detail with the issue of gender equality. Qur'anic verses and prophetic quotes explain in detail this very important issue of multidimensional character. From the beginning of the creation of the first married couple Adam and Eve, Islam provides details that speak of equality between them and at the same time freeing the woman from the first sin. Islam has strongly combated discrimination against women and that treating women as equal to men is an Islamic principle. According to Islam, gender equality means justice between genders according to their psychophysical differences, as well as complementarity with each other. Islam offers full equality between the two genders in the right to religion, the right to work and the right to reward. In the field of education, women are treated completely equally with men. In addition, the woman enjoys her right as a member of society, the right of inheritance and in all civil rights. Marital life is the field in which the full and equal rights of a woman and a man are manifested. She has the right to choose her husband, she has the full right to an honest and dignified life, and finally, she has the right to seek divorce. The right to life is among the primary and fundamental rights of women according to Islam. She enjoys full freedom and rights in political, economic, social, religious life, etc. According to Islam, women have the right to various social activities. Among these activities we emphasize: the presence of women in the mosque, women's interest in scientific and cultural activities, women's participation in various manifestations, women's participation in various experiences, professions and crafts, etc. With other words, a woman's rights and responsibilities are equal to those of a man, but they are not necessarily identical. Equality and oneness are two completely different things, because man and woman are equal, but not identical.
