This volume investigates the diverse range of female religious leadership present in contemporary Muslim communities in South, East and Central Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and North America, with chapters discussing its emergence, the limitations placed upon it, and its wider impact, as well as the physical and virtual spaces used by women to establish and consolidate their authority. It will be invaluable as a reference text, as it is the first to bring together analysis of female Islamic leadership in geographically and ideologically-diverse Muslim communities worldwide. 410 0$aWomen and gender, the Middle East and the Islamic world ;$vv. 11. 606 $aMuslim women$y21st century 606 $aMuslim women$xConduct of life 606 $aMuslim women$xReligious life 606 $aSex role$xReligious aspects$xIslam 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMuslim women 615 0$aMuslim women$xConduct of life. 615 0$aMuslim women$xReligious life. 615 0$aSex role$xReligious aspects$xIslam. 676 $a305.48/697 701 $aBano$b Masooda$f1973-$0922556 701 $aKalmbach$b Hilary$0993109 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458153503321 996 $aWomen, leadership and mosques$92274068 997 $aUNINA
