Abstract: Comparative study of Persian Muslim and Baha'i women who live in Australia. The goal of the study was to determine the level of these women's consciousness and practice of equality in their lives. In most areas the majority of both Muslim and Baha'i women think and act in a traditional way. In the area of divorce and religion there are some structural differences between the two religions which led to a much greater equality among the Baha'is compared with the Muslims.
