This communication compares the two in the perspective of educational freedom to women. Throughout the history it has been a common but sad understating that women are not capable of acquiring knowledge in general and particularly that of mathematics. Many areas except a few have been traditionally male-dominated. This was the consequence of a number of socio-cultural factors that limited the career development of women. They were limited only to household. In some very liberal families they were allowed to learn music, painting and dance. They had no prospects in the field of science and technology. With the rise of Islam and the instruction given by Quran and the Prophet (SAW) women were equally ordered to acquire knowledge.</Abstract> <AbstractLanguage>English</AbstractLanguage> <Keywords>European culture, Muslim society , mathematics, women.</Keywords> <URLs> <Abstract>https://ijesm.co.in/ubijournal-v1copy/journals/abstract.php?article_id=3023&title=COMPARATIVE STUDY OF TWO CULTURES FOR FEMALE MATHEMATICIANS</Abstract> </URLs> <References> <ReferencesarticleTitle>References</ReferencesarticleTitle> <ReferencesfirstPage>16</ReferencesfirstPage> <ReferenceslastPage>19</ReferenceslastPage> <References/> </References> </Journal> </Article> </ArticleSet>
