Abstract

This research seeks to establish the prevalence of radical feminism in the capital city of Islamabad, in Pakistan, considering the Islamic instructions and culture. By using interviews with the activists and scholars the paper delves into difficulties feminist movements encounter when seeking to disestablish gender equality with religion and culture. It shows the easiness and the difficulty of such a narrative for a female creator, commitment to the principle of feminism, and social conservatism, and main obstacles like cyberbullying and stigma. This calls for activism and social movements that take different forms including borrowing religion and the Holy Qur’ân to ignite change and fight patriarchy. The research has significance potential for understanding the feminist approaches in the conservative Islamic countries and therefore requires the future research in the other areas of Pakistan.
