Velvet Jihad: Muslim Women's Quiet Resistance to Islamic Fundamentalism
Faegheh Shirazi
There is a large disparity between a Muslim woman's role according to the Qur'an and her role as some corners of Muslim society have interpreted it. In 'Velvet Jihad' Faegheh Shirazi reveals the creative strategies Muslim women have adopted to quietly fight against those who would limit their growing rights.
