This book investigates female Muslims pilgrimage practices and how
these relate to women's mobility, social relations, identities, and
the power structures that shape women's lives. Bringing together
scholars from different disciplines and regional expertise, it
offers in-depth investigation of the gendered dimensions of Muslim
pilgrimage and the life-worlds of female pilgrims. With a variety
of case studies, the contributors explore the experiences of female
pilgrims to Mecca and other pilgrimage sites, and how these are
embedded in historical and current contexts of globalisation and
transnational mobility. This volume will be relevant to a broad
audience of researchers across pilgrimage, gender, religious, and
Islamic studies.
