While the sacred text of the Quran reveals a clear empowerment of women and equality of believers, such spirit is barely reflected in the interpretations. Trapped between Western rhetoric that portrays them as submissive figures in desperate need of liberation, and centuries-old, parochial interpretations that have almost become part of the "sacred," Muslim women are pressured and profoundly misunderstood. Asma Lamrabet laments this state of affairs and the inclination of both Muslims and non-Muslims to readily embrace flawed human interpretations that devalue women rather than remaining faithful to the meaning of the Sacred Text. Full of insight, this study carefully reads the Qur'an to arrive at its deeper spiritual teachings. 0aCulture. 0aGender identity 0aGender. 0aIdentity politics. 0aIslam-Doctrines. 0aSex and law. 0aWomen.14aReligion and Gender.24aCulture and Gender.24aGender, Sexuality and Law.24aIslamic Theology.24aPolitics and Gender.24aWomen's Studies. cBK 00104070aHMIbHMIcGENd2025-09-24eKohinoor Book Distributorg3007.00l0o201.7081 LAMp26015r2025-09-24w2025-09-24yBK c23575d23575
