Gender justice, from the perspective of Islamic feminism theorists, refers to the equality of men and women in the division of tasks, responsibilities, and social, economic, and political rights. But from Allamah Tabatabai’s point of view, the essential difference between beings is a necessity of the cause and effect system, and men and women are not exempt from this law either. Thus, based on the principle of the essential difference between men and women, distinct laws have been established to protect social interests. Therefore, gender justice does not mean the equality of men and women. This study aims to explain the consequences of the views of the theorists of Islamic feminism in presenting the meaning of gender justice, which has been addressed by referring to the views of Muslim feminists in the verses related to women. The notion of exegeses being patriarchal, polytheism in gender discrimination, trans-textual exegesis, limiting the verses to the Age of Revelation, are among the implications of feminist exegeses, which are criticized and analyzed in this article with emphasis on the views of Allamah Tabatabai.
