The Educational Status of Libyan Women during the Second Ottoman Era, 1835–1911 AD (The City of Tripoli as a Model)

Abstract

Women's education in general in the city of Tripoli during the period of the second Ottoman era tended towards religious educational institutions, represented by the kateeb, corners, mosques and religious schools that existed in Tripoli during that period, as most parents encouraged their daughters to join these educational institutions, in order for them to learn reading, writing and memorizing the Qur’an Generous , In addition to other religious sciences, at a time when modern Ottoman education did not receive much support from the people, rather some considered it prohibited, given the custom and traditions prevailing at the time, fearing for their daughters, and avoiding their mixing with foreigners, and it seems that the modern education created by the Ottomans came to keep pace with European development And because they are aware that religious education in all its institutions does not achieve their aspirations to link their subjects with them politically and culturally
