-- With a foreword from Jan Jaap de Ruiter. Translation and
Afterword by Adi S. Bharat. -- In Homosexuality, Transidentity, and
Islam: A Study of Scripture Confronting the Politics of Gender and
Sexuality, Ludovic-Mohamed Zahed systematically analyses the
entirety of Islamic scriptural sources that relate to the question
of gender and sexuality in relation to their historical contexts.
Through an approach that is certainly more politically engaged than
that of most Islamic thinkers of our time, he clarifies key
theological concepts that may seem esoteric to the uninitiated. In
doing so, he makes a compelling case for the compatibility of
sexual and gender diversity within Islam. Zahed also examines the
historical and contemporary socio-political impacts of inclusive
and exclusive (or, quite simply, homophobic, transphobic, and
misogynistic) interpretations of scripture. This important study
dynamically examines the connections between scripture,
interpretation, and the politics of gender and sexuality.
