Based on original and previously unexamined sources, this book
provides a critical and systematic analysis of the role of women,
mothers, wives, eunuchs, concubines, qahramans and atabegs in the
dynamics and manipulation of medieval Islamic politics. Spanning
over 600 years, Taef El-Azhari explores gender and sexual politics
and power: from the time of the Prophet Muhammad through the
Umayyad and Abbasid periods to the Mamluks in the 15th century, and
from Iran and Central Asia to North Africa and Spain.
