Abstract

It is perhaps worth mentioning here that, in conventional societal perceptions, the chastity of women is given greater attention and importance. Such an attitudinal bias is unacceptable in Islam because the two verses (24:30-31) in the Quran that discuss chastity and related matters highlight the need for sexual purity of men before that of women. Feminists especially in Muslim societies may bring this particular Quranic perspective to the fore when calling for the equal importance of male chastity.
