I Speak for the Muslim Woman: Holy Deceits, Ambivalence and Ambiguity of Paradise
Price 15.78 - 23.65 USD
I Speak for the Muslim Woman is a down to earth, no holds barred discussion on the ultimate fate of the Muslim woman. Is there really a paradise for the Muslim woman? For 1400 years the Muslim woman has been tethered by the promises of fruitful gardens flowing with rivers where its inhabitants would be treated like royalties to fresh fruits and all kinds of delights. I Speak for the Muslim Woman challenges Muslim scholars and clerics to search their scriptures and from them produce concrete, unequivocal proofs that the life of the Muslim woman in these Gardens of paradise would be better than her present life here on earth. By fanning off the smoke screen of religious euphoria to examine the core of assertions that Islamic scholars make about paradise, I Speak for the Muslim Woman squeezes out meaning from benign texts which Muslim men have celebrated for years as irrevocable proofs of rewards for the Muslim woman and calls Islamic teachers and their disciples to take responsibility for the tenebrous implications of doctrines that have been taught for centuries to the Muslim woman.
