Reimagining utopia through an islamic feminist lens a critical Analysis of Begum Rokeya's sultana's dream

Abstract

This research discusses the concept of a feminist utopia, defined as a society free from the patriarchal subordination of women, where women have equal rights and influence in society. The paper specifically examines the story "Sultana's Dream" by Rokeya Sakhawat Hussain from the perspective of a Muslim feminist utopia. This paper includes a theoretical framework defining key concepts such as feminism, utopia, feminist utopia, otherness, and patriarchy, an introduction to the novel, and an analysis of how the story relates to feminism as a theory.
