In Moroccan Female Religious Agents: Old Practices and New
Perspectives, Ouguir studies Moroccan female religious agents in
particular historical women saints and Sufis, the way they
constructed powerful saintly personalities that challenged the
dominant conventional norms, and the way they are received by
venerators and feminist Islamist activists of modern Morocco.
Through hagiographic and oral narratives, Ouguir examines the
techniques religious women followed to achieve ethical
self-formation and strong religious personalities that promoted
them to leadership. She also examined the venerators', murshid t
and Islamist feminists' reception of women saints in their
discourses. Ouguir states convincingly that Moroccan religious
women agents in both Morocco's past and present are to be
highlighted for broader discourses on Muslim women and feminism.
