Abstract

The emergence of women in society to play a role - individual or social - is a topic for many thinkers to express their opinions, and any response to it can affect making decisions and political, economic, and cultural orientations of society. Based on verses and hadiths, this study has explained the necessity and manner of women's presence in society with regard to the natural circumstances and conditions of the family and society, in a descriptive-analytical method and based on library sources and has concluded that for social activities the woman and her presence in society can be imagined in two ways. One is "presence" and the other is "emergence" which are not always related to each other, and, its recognition by the woman herself is directly related to piety. The "presence" of a woman in society is always associated with "good marriage" and "proper upbringing of children", and her emergence in society depends on its necessity, influence, and observation. In this way, a woman appears as a "necessity" in society to gain science, skills, art, or employment, as well as to use social services and she has an effective emergence in matters such as political participation, emigration, economic activity and participation in jihad and then, she appears "observantly" in society by focusing on enjoining to good [Ma’ruf] and forbidding from evil [Munkar] as well as advising the right and patience.
