Women and Islam

More about the book

Exploring the complex realities faced by Muslim women, this book challenges the prevailing narratives of resistance and agency often highlighted in feminist discourse. It addresses the violence and human rights violations that persist under the guise of religious and cultural customs. Organized around five critical questions, it critiques the romanticized views of Muslim women's experiences, examining the implications of historical myths, Orientalism, and the potential of Islamic institutions. Ultimately, it advocates for a reevaluation of feminist dialogue in the context of Islam.
