Summary/Abstract: Almighty God created the first man / Adam and his wife / Eve equally without regard to any superiority based on sex, and reported that the creation of both sexes was the same essence that named as soul. However, the majority of the exegetes alleged that the first man's wife / Eve was created from Adam's curved rib by using some Israeli narrations. In time, this belief has been quite popular and accepted in Islamic tradition. Women were perceived as second-classentities due to the fact that men are considered as the superiority criterion of some different aspects such as physical power and especially the curvature expressed in the serumors. As a reflection of this understanding, their testimonies are accepted at half rate according to the testimony of the man, and they are seen as the main actor of the sedition in society. This understanding over time has led to the discreditation of women. Yet in the universe plan of Almighty Allah himself, which is defined by his own limits, he imposed duties and responsibilities to women, like men, on the basis of their creation. In this context, we clearly see that women are valued as much as men and that there is no injustice in Qur’an and Islamic circumcision. This study focuses on the reasons for discrimination against women and attempts to understand the related messages of the Qur’an accurately and emphasizes that the cultural accumulation is influential not the religion behind the discursive efforts towards the woman.
