Founder of the first girls’ school in Iran

Bibi Khatoon is also known for her book Ma'ayeb al-Rejal (Failings of Men), which was a critical response to the pamphlet Ta'deeb al-Nesvan (Edification of Women) by an anonymous author. Ma'ayeb al-Rejal was published in 1895, eleven years before the inauguration of Iran's system of constitutional monarchy in 1906 by the decree of Mozaffar al-Din Shah Qajar. This book is considered by some as the first declaration of women's rights in the recent history of Iran.
