“…Aceh province is a religious area that applies Islamic sharia law that regulates the socio-political life of its people as one of the regions with special autonomy (Salim 2004, Abubakar 2021. Although Islamic tradition in Aceh restricts women from entering politics (Harber 2019, Elizarni 2020) because of the rational motives of value and rational aimed at female politicians they become legislators with the aim of channeling organizational talents, fighting for women's aspirations in increasing the expansion of women's access to public areas through local regulations, and improving the social and economic status of families (Elizabeth 2017, Muafiah 2019, Malik et al 2021).
