<p><em>The first part of the 34^th verse of Surah An-Nisā, the verse on </em><em>qawwām</em><em>, explains the role of men as leaders for their wives and children. His position as the head of the family makes him responsible for providing for, protecting, nurturing and striving for the benefit of the family. However, in the early 20^t</em><em>^h</em><em> century, some </em><em>m</em><em>uslim feminists who were influenced by Western gender equality ideology rejected the interpretation of </em><em>qawwām</em><em> that made men the leader or head of the family. According to them, the interpretation of </em><em>qawwām</em><em> by classical mufas</em><em>s</em><em>irs, the majority of whom were men, was gender biased. This article tries to review the meaning and function of </em><em>qawwām</em><em> in the view of female mufa</em><em>s</em><em>sirs with the aim of presenting a commensurate argument for feminist criticism of the interpretation of </em><em>qawwām</em><em> by classical mufa</em><em>s</em><em>sirs. This study uses a library research approach that contains the meaning and function of </em><em>qawwām</em><em> from many figures, but the focus is on the interpretation of </em><em>qawwām</em><em> from female mufas</em><em>s</em><em>irs. The results of this study reveal that the interpretation of female mufas</em><em>s</em><em>irs regarding the verse on </em><em>qawwām</em><em> is not different from the classical mufas</em><em>s</em><em>irs. This means that the classical mufas</em><em>s</em><em>irs' interpretation of </em><em>qawwām</em><em> is not gender biased as feminists claim.</em></p>
