PHYSICAL &SOCIAL SCIENCES
Edited by A. M. Elmessiri

£13.95, €20, $25
(ISBN: 1-56564-417-4)
PB: £9.95,
€15, $17.95
(ISBN: 1-56564-416-6)
This collection of papers
emphasises the danger of making the West the ultimate point of reference and
then trying to con-tinuously play “catch up” with it. The book aims
to uncover some of the biases latent in our terminology, methodologies,research
tools and conceptual principles and proposes alternative ones marked by a
greater degree of independence andneutrality; i.e. when Western scholarship
says “development psychology” why do Muslims hurry to use the same
term? |

(ISBN: 1-56564-428-X)
Under the extraordinary pressures of the
economic and political challenges of the modern world, it comes as no surprise
that manyof our young Muslims have reacted by treading the path of intolerance
and rigid interpretation. In this thoughtful and timely bookthe author examines
the worldwide revival of interest in Islam and articulates the wisdom of
understanding both the letter and thespirit of the Qur’an and the Sunnah.

The Sunnah provides the stable
moral framework enabling Muslims by formal rules and an inward sense to know
right fromwrong. This book addresses the danger of simplistically viewed,

Stereotypes by Katherine Bullock

the Western notion that the hijab, the veil, is a symbol of Muslim women's

awaited contribution to an area of fiqh that has become essential for the well
being and development of Muslim communities living in the West. The author

MARITAL DISCORD: Recapturing the Full Islamic Spirit of Human Dignity
by Abdulhamid A. AbuSulayman
This paper examines the issue of marital
discord with a deep sensitivity to the perspective of women. Criticising an
approach to the Quran that is misogynistic rather than emancipatory the paper
moves the debate forward by introducing an alternative interpretation of the
Quranic text. The explanation is fresh, firmly on the side of women's human
rights and recaptures the full Islamic spirit of human dignity.

that action.
