The critical analysis of these articles both shows the angles of the researchers' attitude towards the status of women in this period - despite the division of the Arab society into pre-Islamic and post-Islamic ones, which indicates a kind of transition, especially in relation to the status of women - and also specifies To what extent they have presented a new achievement and finding to the scientific community without stereotypical approaches.For this purpose, the following article examines the topic discussed in more than thirty articles that have been published in the last two or three decades using the method of historical analysis and inspired by the method of content analysis in extracting concepts and categories.The findings of the research show that in most of the articles, researchers emphasize the violation of women's human rights in this period by presenting repeated concepts and categories and the inappropriate situation of their bio-social conditions, which is caused by the lack of attention to scientific and research principles in examining the conditions. Environmental and cultural Arab society has been depicted without prejudice.Although in some articles, the scientific and research approach based on historical and literary data shows a different situation, but the number of these articles compared to the stereotypical approaches and black and white view of the period before and after Islam. it's limited.
