Undeniably, there are quite sharp differences between Shirin Ebadi and the Islamic government. Ibadi is known for his pacifist, pluralistic and tolerant views of Islam. She said her interpretation was pacifist because she believed Islam was a religion of peace and that Islamic values were consistent with universal human rights values.
Her views on Islam are diverse as she believes Islam respects different religions and teaches gender equality, social justice, and democratic living. Ebadi believes that Islam teaches respect for life, liberty, justice, social justice, gender equality, and human dignity.
