Examining Gender Roles and Professional Realities: Stereotypes Against Women in Islamic Societies

Women have long been a topic of discussion throughout history. There are numerous questions and issues surrounding women's existence, particularly their rights and roles as members of society. Discussions frequently revolve around women's professional careers. In this paper, we will examine women's roles in the workplace, as well as their positions in various religions prior to the emergence of Islam. This study aims to determine Islamic perspectives on the career woman stereotype. This study utilized a literature review, citing primary sources such as the Qur'an, Hadis, fiqh books, scientific journals, and relevant social works. Women are allowed to work in Islam as long as they follow sharia. Women are categorized as God's servants and may contribute to society in a variety of ways. In practice, many women decide to work to help their husbands with family responsibilities. The Qur'an teaches that all believers, men and women, are equal before Allah. As a result, they should have equal standing in regards to God, and they have both been declared equal in their ability to receive His grace. As a result, women face no barriers to employment as long as the work is done in a respectful and polite environment, and they can practice their religion without negatively impacting themselves or the environment. Abstrak Sepanjang sejarah perdaban Islam, perempuan telah menjadi subjek perdebatan. Keberadaan wanita menimbulkan banyak pertanyaan dan masalah, terutama hak dan peran mereka sebagai anggota masyarakat. Dunia kerja perempuan sering menjadi subjek diskusi. Kami akan membahas peran perempuan sebelum kedatangan Islam di tempat kerja dan dalam berbagai agama. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pandangan Islam tentang stereotip yang dimiliki wanita karir. Sumber-sumber penting seperti Al-Qur'an, Hadis, kitab-kitab fikih, jurnal ilmiah, dan karya-karya sosial yang relevan dikutip dalam penelitian ini. Tinjauan literatur juga digunakan. Dalam Islam, perempuan yang mengikuti syariah dapat bekerja. Perempuan adalah hamba Allah dan dapat membantu masyarakat dengan berbagai cara. Pada kenyataannya, banyak perempuan yang memilih untuk bekerja untuk membantu suami mereka menyelesaikan tugas keluarga. Al-Qur'an menyatakan bahwa semua orang beriman adalah setara di hadapan Allah, jadi mereka berdua harus memiliki kedudukan yang sama di hadapan-Nya dan memiliki kemampuan untuk menerima anugerah-Nya. Akibatnya, perempuan tidak menghadapi kesulitan untuk bekerja selama pekerjaan itu dilakukan dalam lingkungan yang sopan dan terhormat, dan mereka dapat mempraktikkan agama mereka tanpa berdampak negatif terhadap diri mereka sendiri atau lingkungan

Pendidikan Politik bagi Perempuan

Women who are represented in the Regency/City DPRD have not yet reached the 30% quota as mandated by the law. The number of women's representation proves that the mandate of the law has not been carried out as it should. The aspirations of women in their political activities are still not respected, there are still many policies that are made that are still biased, women are considered not capable of entering the political sphere, men who should be included in the political arena are men. Many political parties in Indonesia have not accommodated women's rights, especially providing political education to women. Whereas the mandate of the law requires every political party, both national political parties and local parties in several provinces in Indonesia. However, the next obstacle that arises is the understanding of culture that is difficult to overhaul in the social order, some people still hold the principle of patriarchy in which the subordination of men is more dominant than women, so that the capacity of women who want to exist in the political field is hindered. Weaknesses and responsibilities of women in the family sphere are used as reasons to marginalize women's political rights. The biggest homework for the Indonesian people is to raise awareness to the people who are still bound by the cultural system that men and women have the same qualities to assume positions as leaders.
