Book Synopsis – Muslim women and their ‘emancipation’ remains a key project of liberal universalists. The Muslim woman and her role in society has unwittingly become a front line in this cacophony of voices to embrace liberal ‘modernity’. From politicians to pundits, the obsession with the Muslim woman’s dress, habits, roles, motivations, and place in a Muslim family seems to have become a political project driven by a wider desire to engender an “Islamic reformation”. We plan, through this edited book (each chapter will be written by a different writer), to bring together genuine voices of Muslim women, intelligently tracing the historical and present-day political project to embrace feminism and undermine Islamic social values. We are looking for a broad range of Muslim writers to contribute and would like to request your submissions. How do I contribute? – In the first instance please contact us giving a quick summary of the chapter you wish to tackle, your background, and how you hope (InshaAllah) to approach the topic. All submissions will be proofread and will undergo a process of peer-review. Do I need to be an academic? The short answer is no. We would like well-researched pieces.
