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. . 606 $aReligion and sociology 606 $aIslam$xDoctrines 606 $aSex 606 $aLaw and the social sciences 606 $aIdentity politics 606 $aFeminism 606 $aFeminist theory 606 $aSociology of Religion 606 $aIslamic Theology 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aSocio-Legal Studies 606 $aPolitics and Gender 606 $aFeminism and Feminist Theory 615 0$aReligion and sociology. 615 0$aIslam$xDoctrines. 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aLaw and the social sciences. 615 0$aIdentity politics. 615 0$aFeminism. 615 0$aFeminist theory. 615 14$aSociology of Religion. 615 24$aIslamic Theology. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aSocio-Legal Studies. 615 24$aPolitics and Gender. 615 24$aFeminism and Feminist Theory. 676 $a201.7081 700 $aLamrabet$b Asma$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0974402 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910392753003321 996 $aWomen and Men in the Qur??n$92218355 997 $aUNINA
