A Examination of Feminism And The Perceived Attitudes of Islam and Islamism
I came upon this article while googling.
Very Very well written article, although some of the contentions of Islamic jurisprudence are stretching the fabric a bit.
Howerever, it highlights the debate and the details of it in the Islamic and the Feminist communities. There are many challenges facing Islam and the role of women within it. Certain things are hard to justfiy and I would personally find them unislamic - female circumcision being the most prominent. This shows the detpth to which some thinking has been done.
Please feel free to delve into the debate
