For too long, "knowledge" about Muslim families has been produced by people who don't actually live the lives they are regulating.

Read Chapter 9 from the “ Men in Charge?” book to know about these powerful life stories and see the data behind the movement.

Is marriage a partnership or a contract of exchange?

Does the "provide/obey" logic still show up in your community's laws? Let's discuss below. 👇

In a recent landmark judgement, Pakistan’s Islamabad High Court ruled that all assets acquired during marriage—whether movable or immovable and regardless of the title holder—constitute “matrimonial property” and are subject to equitable distribution between spouses.

📣 Happening tomorrow!
What would a truly feminist, African-led GBV Action Agenda look like?

Not drafted for us.
Not decided without us.
But co-created across movements, regions, and lived realities.

FGM is not a culture.
It is not religion.
It is harm.
Islam stands for dignity, not damage.

The Companions married and divorced like it was going out of style.

[MUSAWAH @musawah]

Across the Muslim world, countries have rewritten family laws to better reflect justice, dignity, and equality. From Morocco’s landmark 2004 reforms to Indonesia’s 2019 marriage law amendment, the evidence is clear: change is possible, proven, and powerful.

[The Soaring Star @S_Nusiroh]

In my new essay with @tmwt_tweets, I discussed the misguided notion that marrying a financially struggling suitor equates piety. 👇👇👇

As digital violence grows, so does the strength of our movements.
UNMUTED is a call to rise against silencing, challenge oppressive systems, and stand boldly for the rights and autonomy of women and girls online and offline.
#ACTtoEndViolence #SRHRDialogues

[FEMNET @FemnetProg]

From African countries, women and girls standing together against digital violence and all forms of GBV.
We speak. We demand.
We resist loudly, boldly, unapologetically.
This is what UNMUTED looks like.

We cannot talk about #SRHR and gender justice without naming the crisis: shrinking donor funding across Africa is pushing essential services to the brink. ⚠️💔

Women’s rights organizations and feminist groups, the very heartbeat of community-level change, are being asked to do more with less.

In contrast, young women continue to bear the brunt of gaps in access, stigma, unsafe care, and violence. These are not statistics; these are lived realities from Nairobi to Niamey, from Kinshasa to Kigali. ✊🏾🔥

For too long, Sudanese women’s voices have been silenced by war, displacement, and survival. However, their voices and stories matter! They deserve to be seen, heard, and remembered.

🎉 As #COP30 comes to a close, feminists are crystal clear: young women must be at every decision-making table shaping climate action.

Their realities, their innovations, their leadership — this is the future the world cannot ignore.

🎥 Listen to Halima Hussein’s rallying call for women and girls and watch this powerful clip that reminds the world why their voices matter and why feminist leadership is non-negotiable for climate justice.

"Qur’an 4:34 remains one of the most weaponised verses of the Qur’an. Traditional Muslims use it to justify the subjugation of Muslim women. Opponents of Islam also weaponise it to defend their claim that Islam is indeed unfriendly to women...”
