Celene Ibrahim (Muslim Chaplain, Muslim Chaplain, Tufts University)

Women and Gender in the Qur'an

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Stories related to gendered social relations permeate the Qur'an, and nearly three hundred verses involve specific women or girls. These stories weave together theology and ethics to reinforce central Qur'anic ideas regarding submission to God and moral accountability. Women and Gender in the Qur'an outlines how women and girls - old, young, barren, fertile, chaste, profligate, reproachable, and saintly-enter Qur'anic sacred history and advance the Qur'an's overarching didactic aims.
