This article is an incomplete list of female scholars of Islam. A traditionally-trained female scholar is referred to as ʿālimah or Shaykha.[1] The inclusion of women in university settings has increased the presence of women scholars.[2] Akram Nadwi authored the largest compilation on female Islamic scholars, titled Al-Wafa bi Asma al-Nisa, spanning over two decades and containing a repository of more than 10,000 entries.[3][4]
