Contradicting the views commonly held by westerners, many Muslim
countries in fact engage in a wide spectrum of reform, with the
status of women as a central dimension. This anthology counters the
myth that Islam and feminism are always or necessarily in
opposition. A multidisciplinary group of scholars examine ideology,
practice, and reform efforts in the areas of marriage, divorce,
abortion, violence against women, inheritance, and female
circumcision across the Islamic world, illuminating how religious
and cultural prescriptions interact with legal norms, affecting
change in sometimes surprising ways.
