Description

Explore the real stories of British Muslim women in this essential volume from the Routledge Islamic Studies Series. Sariya Contractor challenges long-standing perceptions shaped by colonialism, patriarchy, and Orientalism by reinstating the Muslimah as a primary storyteller of her own life. This book provides a deep look into the lives of women living in the UK, examining how they navigate issues of femininity, Britishness, and social cohesion. Through incisive narratives, the text addresses common topics such as the hijab, the representation of Muslim women in the media, and ongoing feminist debates in Western society. Ideal for students and readers interested in anthropology and sociology, this work moves beyond stereotypes to offer a direct perspective on inter-communal relations and identity. It serves as a significant resource for understanding the social and historical conditions that influence the lived experiences of Muslim women in Britain today.
