Summary/Abstract: The author attempts to find an answer to the question of why the Islamic Community does not have defined strategies for bringing about a larger degree of participation of women in the Community and for utilising their potentials in a way in which the Community would benefit. It is essential that the Islamic Community defines a strategy for making the best use of those potentials and competences of the female part of the Community. A Muslim woman of our Community aspires to act; she needs to be a part of the jamat, but not as a passive and silent observer of the events but as an active participant and contributor in those events. Defining a strategy for involving women in the activities of the Islamic Community represents an essential step in the way of realising a new atmosphere and a new spirit in the pores of the Community that has for years been considered essentially a male Community. In this light the author proposes the first steps that are to be taken towards defining such a strategy.
