Alaa Murabitina obitelj preselila se iz Kanade u Libiju kada je imala 15 godina. Prije toga, osjećala se ravnopravnom s braćom, ali u novom okruženju primijetila je velike zapreke do onoga što želi postići. Kao ponosna Muslimanka, zapitala se: Je li ovo stvarno religijska nauka? S humorom, strašću i osvježavajućim buntovnim duhom, s nama dijeli kako je otkrila primjere ženskih vođa kroz povijest svoje vjere i pokrenula kampanju koja se bori za ženska prava koristeći citate izravno iz Kurana.  

Što moja religija govori o ženama

Religious teachings have often been distorted to justify limiting women’s roles, but foundational texts contain powerful messages of inclusion and equality. After moving from Canada to Libya at age 15, one woman saw firsthand how culture and faith became entwined to restrict women’s rights. Through research, she uncovered overlooked female leaders in her own religious tradition and used scripture to champion women’s participation. Changing the narrative from within religious communities sparked policy changes and began shifting deep-rooted norms.
