Islamic Revivals are widespread in Islamic countries. Numerous attempts have been made by scholars to show the meaning of this phenomenon.But only a few attempts have so far been made to examine gender relationships within this period of Islamic revival.This paper will explore the relationship between Islamic discourses and the lives of Egyptian Muslim women. By examining the work of two obscure female preachers we will uncover more information about women’s survival strategies, as well as their daily routines and ways of applying Islamic discourses to improve their daily lives. This paper will illustrate how Egyptian women use Islamic discourses on a day-to-day basis. It will analyse their activity using the concepts of ‘authority’ and ‘authenticity’.With the advent of the 21st century, the number of Islamic colleges for women has expanded, especially in Cairo. This phenomenon reflects women’s growing desire for knowledge about Islam during Egypt’s Islamic revival. It comes against the background of rising female literacy rates,higher academic achievement by urban dwelling women.These changes laid the groundwork for the emergence of women into the arena of Islamic discourse. Power struggles take place in the form of discourse. This has had tremendous impact and meaning.
