Introduction The Legal Status of Women in Islam Islam and Women’s Education Marriage in Islam Women and the Question of Polygamy in Islam Female Circumcision: Religious Obligation or Cultural Deviation? Islam and Women’s Inheritance The Dissolution of Marriage in Islam Women and Political Action Conclusion Bibliography Index

Synopsis

It has been argued that Islam liberated Muslim women by granting them full rights as citizens. Yet in reality we see that women have long been subjected to both cultural and political oppression. Instances such as forced marriages are sadly common in the Muslim World, as are restrictions on education and on their role in the labour force.
