Produktbeschreibung
In Prisoners of Traditions, Sadia Azma confronts the harsh reality many Muslim women face: caught between cultural traditions and the true teachings of Islam. Despite Islam's progressive stance on women's rights, outdated pre-Islamic customs, local cultural traditions - especially prevalent in South Asia- continue to oppress women, stripping them of the freedoms and dignity that Islam genuinely upholds. Sadia sheds light on how these practices, often mistaken for religious obligations, have permeated Muslim communities and led to widespread inequality. This oppression impacts women in all aspects of life-from their education and financial independence to their emotional well-being and social status. As these customs spread across borders, Muslim women globally endure similar struggles, all under the false pretense of faith. Through a rich mix of personal stories, thought-provoking insights, and religious analysis, Sadia uncovers the stark differences between these cultural practices and Islam's true principles. She makes a compelling case for reclaiming the real values of Islam to empower women and create lasting change. Prisoners of Traditions is a must-read for anyone exploring the intersection of religion, culture, and women's rights. It calls for a re-examination of outdated traditions and a future where women's rights are fully recognized.
