Özet

In classical written work, literature on women/girls takes place in a certain part of a writing, while in modern life, it becomes the main theme of studies on its own, with the effect of orientalist and secular acquis. This is because, although west's criticism of religion, which starts with the modernization process, involves several areas of Islam, in general it brings up the issue of human rights, in particular, the issue of "women". It is self evident that the intellectual blockage, which is uncovered by these stages, adds new perspectives to the investigations about women/girls. However, these practices that reach the level of assimilation and exploitation, accompany a terminological confusion, too. Thus, it is nearly impossible to examine the issue of women, although hermeneutics or interpretation oriented, free from projection of any "...ism" and populist discourse, as well as safe fromapologetic conduct.
