Abstract

Women in the Qajar era, as in previous periods, were confined within the framework of the traditional system and played only the role of husband and mother. The family system, social norms, and legal system provided a closed world that in practice did not allow women to express their individuality. In this relationship, the woman took a definite path that did not lead to the realization of her individuality. The family, religion and charity, and in some cases the social presence of women, were all predetermined paths of traditional societies that still made sense in relation to their traditional roles. Even women's hobbies did not allow them to act. In the years before constitutionalism, faint traces of critique of the Sunni world are found in the minds of pioneering women and in some social affairs, indicating the beginning of a long challenge to the critique of tradition.
