What does Islam really say about women? This work is a collection of major references to women in the Quran and Hadiths, the two central Pillars of Islam on which Islamic legislation and social practice are based.

Topics covered include hygiene, divorce, marriage, sex and chastity, inheritance, and status and rights.
