What rights and power have been accorded to Muslim women, and how have they used the legal system to enhance their social and economic position? In an analysis of Islamic law through the prism of gender, Judith Tucker tackles these complex questions relating to the position of women in Islamic society, and to the ways in which the legal system impacted on the family, property rights, space and sexuality, from classical and medieval times to the present. Working with concepts drawn from feminist legal theory and by using particular cases to illustrate her arguments, the author systematically addresses questions of discrimination and expectation - what did men expect of their womenfolk - and of how the language of the law contributed to that discrimination, infecting the system and all those who participated in it. 410 0$aThemes in Islamic law ;$v3. 517 3 $aWomen, Family, & Gender in Islamic Law 606 $aWomen (Islamic law) 606 $aMarried women (Islamic law) 606 $aDivorce (Islamic law) 606 $aDomestic relations (Islamic law) 615 0$aWomen (Islamic law) 615 0$aMarried women (Islamic law) 615 0$aDivorce (Islamic law) 615 0$aDomestic relations (Islamic law) 676 $a340.5/9 700 $aTucker$b Judith E.$0510582 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453079303321 996 $aWomen, family, and gender in islamic law$9766752 997 $aUNINA
