Özet:

Islam is a religion that attaches great importance to reading. The first verses of Holy Qur’an order reading. Many hadiths also encourage reading. Because this world’s life and the life hereafter are based on reading, understanding and practicing of acquired knowledge. Therefore, a nonscientific life is nonproductive and it is impossible to receive benefit from a science that is not applied. As is known the verses that order reading address all men and women. When we look at Qur’an and Sunnah, we see no differences between men and women. Also, when we look at Islamic history, men and women are seen together in field of science. Especially in the first period women's scientific studies attract attention. Women have also shown themselves in fiqh and fatwa, as well as in many scientific fields such as hadith, tafsir, akaid and language. It is important to know and recognize the women who are interested in the field of Fiqh in the early days of Islam. Because there are a number of people who are opposed to women's reading and getting involved in science. This negative perspective is not due to the orders of Islam, but in some periods due to political and social considerations. Having knowledge about the life and scientific studies of women living in the early days of Islam will help to eliminate the negative thoughts about women's reading. Hence in this study we mentioned the life and the work on the fiqh of some famous canonist women who lived in the 1st-3st century of the Hegira. These canonist women's occupation of science will be an example of how Islam encourages women to read and research. It will also be a good answer to the mindset that opposes women's readings. On this occasion, we will display in our articles examples of Islamic religion encouraging women to read and research thereby deal with the life of some Muslim women who are interested in science and especially in the field of fiqh in the first three centuries of the hegira.
