Abstract

ender justice and the realization of women's rights are important topics that have been discussed for many years, but there are still many unclear points in the Islamic approach to it, from the field of opinion to practical forms. Therefore, the present study decided to investigate this issue in the collection of Ayatollah Khamenei's statements and messages from the beginning of his leadership until 2025 with the help of Ijtihadi method and coding technique. In this method, the base code is extracted based on the examination of the types of verbal meanings of the statements, and then in the categorization stage, the ratio between the codes (absolute and restricted, general and specific, etc. , the context and the audience of the speech is examined). In the intellectual system of leadership, justice is expressed as a combination of equal rights of men and women based on human commonalities, and inequality based on gender differences; In this intellectual system, some examples of equal and different rights of women with men and examples of oppression of women and redefinition of some examples of rights and their details, as well as an examination of the ratio between different rights of women are observed. In the meantime, the right to dignity, which includes rights such as chaste life and ideal life and is in two categories, family and social, is at the top of women's rights. After going through these theoretical prerequisites in the intellectual system of leadership, the present research has extracted a political model in several dimensions of characteristics (including a model based on Islamic goals and rationality, continuous, deep and far from haste and based on an aggressive attitude towards the West and a systemic attitude). explained the main actors of realizing gender justice policy (women as the central actors), the legal priorities of women and strategies (including culture building, reforming and drafting protective and strict laws and the formation of the women's defense movement with chastity and correct slogans) Considering this model, policies related to gender justice can be reviewed, modified and formulated.
