Author: Jihene Aissaoui RAJHI

Number of pages: 217

What was the role of Muslim women in the transmission of knowledge in the past? Did they enjoy the recognition of the intellectual community of their time? How big was their fame? How was their involvement received by their male peers? Can we really speak of "Savant Women"?

It is to these questions that this book strives to provide some answers, while shedding light on these little-known scholarly women. It meets three objectives: to honor these women forgotten by history, to inform the reader about an underestimated phenomenon, and to inspire the women of the world so that their identity is not a brake but an impetus and a motivation in their desire to mark their time.
