Explanation:

Islamic reform movements often differ from fundamentalist beliefs in that reform - minded individuals typically advocate for a more flexible interpretation of the Quran rather than a strict literal one. Fundamentalists usually have more rigid views on religious texts. Option B about subjugation of women is a complex issue within different Islamic groups and not a key differentiator between reform and fundamentalist beliefs. Option C, fundamentalists are more likely to see Sharia law as a central political and social force. Option D is not a characteristic difference between reform and fundamentalist beliefs as both would likely have different stances on Western pop - culture but not in a way that defines their core religious differences.

Answer:

A. Reformers believe in a less strict interpretation of the Quran
