عن الكتاب : Chapter 11 m Why Muslim Women are Re-interpreting the Qur`an and Hadith: A Transformative Scholarship-Activism Nimat Hafez Barazangi Introduction Because the true message of Islam concerning women was rarely practiced throughout the past 14 centuries of Muslim history, women scholar-activists1 who self-identify with Islam have been taking it upon themselves to reinterpret the Qur`an to change attitudes about gender (Barazangi 2009). They have been trying to go beyond revolution to a wake-up call about gender practices in Islam. By “revolution”, I mean not only the revolutionary unrest that has been sweeping some Arab societies since December 2010, but also the silent revolution that I discussed few years back—the systematic critical analysis of one’s Muslim identity and how others contribute to shaping it (Barazangi 2005). Although Muslims are a majority in these societies, few in-depth discussions of history and religious foundations for reform, particularly in gender practices, took place prior to the recent revolutionary unrest, like the writings of Jamal al Banna (2005a) and the recent article by Rabab El Mahdi (2010). But this literature does not seem to reach those politicized Muslims who are running the post-revolution affairs in these societies. To the contrary, they are leading a counter-revolution against gender justice (al Jazeera 2011). There is a crisis in the general interpretation and representation of Islam leading Muslim women, like the majority of Muslims, to fail to embrace the Islamic concept of Tawhid. The concept of Tawhid reminds Muslims of their humanness, that is, their ability to reason; the Qur`an provides the ethical guidance for the exercise of this ability. To alleviate this general problem of interpretation and representation, each woman needs to self-identity with Islam (Barazangi 2000). The Muslim woman must realize that, as an individual Muslim, she becomes legally bound by 1 The term scholar-activists and/or scholarship-activism were adopted by some American Muslim women scholars in the edited volume Windows of Faith by Gisela Web to indicate a specific approach “because it originates in the conviction that to look at women’s issues from within the Islamic perspective must include, and indeed unite, issues of theory and practice” (2000: xi). .
