Critical Evaluation of the Foundations of Equality in Bisexual Education Based on the Moral Teachings of Islam

The new approach to bisexual education defines a new form of gender role that requires female and male characteristics for both sexes equally. One of the most important principles that is emphasized in this approach is “equality”. The basis of Islamic ethics in dealing with male and female gender is paying attention to the differences and roles according to the female and male genetic characteristics. The type of this study is library research. It evaluates and criticizes the basis of equality in bisexual education through a descriptive and analytical method, with an approach to Islamic ethics based on the Islamic sources, as well as the sources related to the main subject, including psychology, sociology and women’s studies. The findings of this study show that the Islamic ethics considers men and women, due to their commonalities in terms of value, as equal in value, but regards them as having special duties due to their difference, talents and abilities - as a natural right. Paying attention and observing them will lead to the achievement of the happiness for the individual and the society. Islamic ethics does not accept such similarity based on the men’s and women’s genetic equality in creation.
