Women's social activity is one of the issues that has become very important today with human progress and the expansion of human relations, because women, as half of the society, can play effective roles. On the other hand, from the perspective of the Holy Quran, the family has a special place, and in order to observe family and social interests, the Quran has set special instructions to regulate the relations between spouses. The guardianship of men over women, which is stated in the holy verse "Men are the guardians of women" is one of these commands that at first seems to be in conflict with the social activity of women. The present research, using descriptive and analytical method and aiming at analyzing the concept of guardianship and its impact on women's social activity, explores this important issue with careful attention to the lexical meaning and correct interpretation of it. Men are advised to use this advantage in order to manage family affairs, not to hinder women's social activities.
