Synopsis Among the Islamic themes which have occupied the attention of the learned circles and have been the subject of debate and discussion, that of woman's rights have acquired great importance from various angles. The modern educated generation has levelled certain objections to it. In the present work to begin with, the rights granted to a Muslim woman have been briefly touched upon, and later on, the main objections raised against them have been examined. The issues dealt with here, have all been exhaustively discussed from all angles. In dealing with all the issues polemic style has been avoided since it closes the doors on receptivity and appreciative understanding. Since the objections relating to the rights of a Muslim woman have been levelled under the influence of Western thought, a brief examination of the Western concept of woman's liberation has also been under-taken which will bring to light glaring facts. This book is a valuable addition to the authentic and objective books available on the subject.
