What is Gender Islamophobia

Gender-based violence in the digital environment affects women from various communities, and Muslim reverted women are no exception. According to the National Observatory of Technology and Society, 54% of women have experienced assault on honor and privacy in the digital environment. However, for Muslim revert women, the situation is further complicated due to the intersection of gender violence and Islamophobic attitudes amplified by social media. Online hate speech directed at Muslim revert women takes various forms from offensive comments to threats, intensifying gender Islamophobia. Therefore, this chapter delves into how gender Islamophobia expands through social media and affects reverted women and the different stigmas they face due to changes in religion. In conclusion, despite Islamophobia being the current subject of study, there is limited research specifically addressing the discrimination faced by Muslim revert women. Future research directions were proposed to contribute to this area of study.
