%X L¡¯irruption r¨¦cente du voile dans l¡¯espace public masque la temporalit¨¦, moins visible, du processus de conversion interne ¨¤ l¡¯islam des ¨¦tudiantes descendantes de parents originaires du Maghreb. Ce processus, ¨¤ la fois coh¨¦rent dans son unit¨¦ et scand¨¦ par de grandes ruptures, se d¨¦roule en quatre ¨¦tapes travers¨¦es par une m¨ºme dialectique de l¡¯arrachement et du rattachement : 1/ le temps du questionnement identitaire, temps de la d¨¦stabilisation de l¡¯identit¨¦ individuelle et du rejet des marqueurs ethniques ; 2/ le temps   de l¡¯adolescence  , temps des choix et de la rappropriation de l¡¯origine ; 3/ le temps   exploratoire   des possibles religieux, temps de l¡¯affranchissement de la transmission patriarcale et de la libre enqu¨ºte autodidactique ; 4/ le temps de la   militance  , temps de l¡¯invention d¡¯une islamit¨¦ f¨¦minine originale des   s urs  . In fine, la description de la trajectoire id¨¦altypique du processus conversionnel des ¨¦tudiantes fran aises descendantes de migrants maghr¨¦bins pose la question de la possibilit¨¦ d¡¯une ¨¦mancipation f¨¦minine structur¨¦e par l¡¯engagement religieux. Elle ouvre ¨¤ celle, paradoxale et pol¨¦mique, de l¡¯¨¦mergence d¡¯un f¨¦minisme islamique. The recent emergence of the veil in public places overshadows the slow development of the process of internal conversion to Islam among young female students descendants of Maghreb migrant families."Entry" into religion cannot be regarded as a sudden occurrence. It is an intense dialectical process of painful separations followed by renewed ties which gives meaning to, even shapes identity reconstruction. The typical ideal path of French female students' conversion to Islam goes through four analytic phases and ultimately raises the issue of a possible emancipation of women structured by religious commitment. The different phases examined in our study are as follows: the first phase is one of questioning identity, destabilization of individual identity and rejection of ethnic markers. The second is the phase of adolescence. The third is the exploratory phase of religious possibilities. Finally, the fourth and last phase is a time for religious activism (University/mosque). Thus, the quest for emancipated behavior, part of a process of modernity, occurs through their religious activism. A problematic and controversial quest for Islamic feminism then emerges from this paradox.
