WOMEN AND MEN IN THE QURAN - ASMA LAMRABET KART...

This book distinguishes Islam as a spiritual message from the sociopolitical context of its
revelation. 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.
