Beschreibung
Muslim women are among the most fetishisedand objectified groups in society today. Much isassumed and imagined about their lives, and it isall too easy to succumb to orientalist myths. Fortoo long, Muslim women have been reduced totwo-dimensional stereotypes: empowered heroinesrejecting patriarchal religious teachings, or victims of a misogyny believed to run deep within Islam.But why is this neatly packaged view so pervasive?Are oppression and subjugation actually so centralto Muslim womens lives? How is this misogynyinfluenced by white supremacy and Islamophobia?And where do the biggest threats to Muslimwomens freedom and safety really come from?In this bold new book, Samia Rahman exploresthe relationships between misogyny and Muslimwomens experiences in Britain today, untanglingcomplex issues such as Muslim feminism,representation, toxic masculinity, marriage andsexuality. Based on extensive interviews withboth women and men from Islamic communities,she offers a powerful, much-needed response tothe misappropriation of female Muslim voices,revealing the many faces of Muslim womanhoodwithin the UK.
