Does Islam Oppress Women? Adnan Khan

As a reaction to many misconceptions in the Muslim world and the west about Women in Islam, some women have turned to the West and have taken on the decades long struggle of becoming man's equal. The aim of this booklet is to as assess the struggle Western women undertook to achieve their rights as this continues to be held as the benchmark for women and societies across the world. The Islamic social system will then be looked at to assess what Islam actually says about women, how it regulates male-female relations and its suitability as a model for women and society.
