Challenges and Triumphs: Education of Eastern Women

The education of women in Eastern societies, specifically in Iran and Saudi Arabia, has been hindered by conservative traditions and Islamic perspectives. Despite these challenges, women have shown magnificent success in their educational journey, with Iranian women being more insistent and claiming for their rights over the decades. Saudi girls, on the other hand, were completely subjected to the control of traditions and clerics. The history of women's education in both countries highlights the complexities and contradictions in the social habits and Islamic instructions that have shaped the lives of women.
