Women in Islam face subjugation, gender injustice, and dehumanization. Often, these gender-humiliating issues were derived from a certain interpretation of Qur’anic passages that relate to women. It hinders the development of the potential of women and affects them economically. This has led to protests by women in contemporary times for gender justice in Islam. Rabiatu Deinyo Ammah added that it is not only misinterpretation of Qur’anic passages but also these misinterpretations that dehumanize women and have support from gender issues in socio-cultural norms of some Arab and African societies. This study critically reviews some works of Rabiatu Deinyo Ammah concerning gender issues among women in Islam and how to tackle the problem. It is recommended that interpreters of the Qur’an on gender issues ought to adopt appropriate methods and approaches that are blurs or makes nebulous some traditional perception concerning women. The concept of the zakat should be upheld for the sustainable development of women in Muslim communities.engIslamwomenQur’aninterpretationAfricagenderdehumanizedevelopmentzakat290Rabiatu Deinyo Ammah on Islam and Gender Issuesbookpart
