Riassunto

What does Islam really say about women? This anthology is the standard reference work on the role of women in Islam, a topic of growing popularity both within Islamic studies courses and women s studies. Included are all major references to women in the Quran and Hadiths, the two scriptures on which Islamic legislation and social practice are based. The hadiths themselves are taken from the collections of Bukhari and Muslim, the Sahihain or the Two Sound Collections that are considered the most reliable. Topics covered include Hygiene, Divorce, Marriage, Sex and Chastity, Inheritance, and Status & Rights. This definitive resource gathers together all the significant source material on the subject and presents it in an accessible format in clear unambiguous English with cross-references to the Arabic originals and an in-depth index. This new and revised edition includes the full version of the Hadith of the Lie as well as an extensive bibliography of major works dealing with Islam and women and gender studies.
