Book Synopsis The Book of Marriage by : David Blankenhorn
Download or read book The Book of Marriage written by David Blankenhorn and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2001-03 with total page 637 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Couples spend an enormous amount of time and energy planning for the perfect wedding. But what about planning for the perfect marriage? In these times of rampant divorce and "relationship" crises, it makes sense to think seriously about the many challenges of married life that loom so large today. The Book of Marriage offers a treasury of marital wisdom from across the ages. Intellectually engaging, morally rich, and ideologically balanced, this anthology gathers some of the deepest, wittiest, and most edifying perspectives on the big questions of married life: Why get married at all? Can love last a lifetime? How do we handle money? Who's the boss? What about children? Conflict? Growing old? Illness and death? There is even a chapter on divorce -- one calculated to save a few marriages. To date there has been no single comprehensive book of source readings on marriage and family life. Assembled with the aid of noted scholars from various fields, this volume treats marriage as more than just a relationship -- as an institution, a vocation, and a source of great spiritual and emotional rewards. Each chapter introduces a different quandary of marriage and then culls the best from ancient and modern writings on the theme. The compendium of cultural wisdom on marriage ranges from the Bible and Eastern wisdom to Aristotle, St. Augustine, Maimonides, and Judith Wallerstein; from Homer, Shakespeare, Milton, and Jane Austen to Edward Albee, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and Bill Cosby. An important resource for young adults, college students, engaged and married couples, educators, marriage counselors, therapists, pastors, and other family professionals, The Book of Marriage celebrates the diversity and essential humanity of the marital experience in a way that is accessible, entertaining, and eminently useful.

Book Synopsis Research in the Social Scientific Study of Religion, Volume 31 by : W. Hood, Ralph
Download or read book Research in the Social Scientific Study of Religion, Volume 31 written by W. Hood, Ralph and published by Research in the Social Scienti. This book was released on 2020-12-03 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research in the Social Scientific Study of Religion, Volume 31: A Diversity of Paradigms' showcases two approaches to the socio-scientific study of religion. It includes a special section within which authors draw on data collected about congregational life in the Australian National Church Life Surveys (from 1991 to present). These studies give voice to minority groups and children. While findings include the strengths of ethnic diversity and the positive experiences of young churchgoers, they also highlight that full inclusion in local church life is far from being realized. A second section explores the application of feminist approaches within the sociology of religion. In their struggle for equality for women, feminist scholars developed methodologies to challenge the marginality of any ?othered? group. This section showcases how use of these methods challenges hierarchies within knowledge.
Download or read book Polygyny written by Debra Majeed and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2016-10-26 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Captivating, provocative, and groundbreaking. Taking up the mandate that women's realities matter, Majeed writes with depth and analytical rigor about a topic we have scarcely begun to understand."--Amina Wadud, author of Inside The Gender Jihad "Tackles the contours and intimacies of a much practiced but seldom spoken about quasi-marriage that leaves women without legal support. A much-needed text on an extremely sensitive topic. Majeed excavates this terrain with finesse and a deft scholarly hand."--Aminah Beverly McCloud, coeditor of An Introduction to Islam in the 21st Century "Utilizes ethnographic research methods to imaginatively and constructively complexify the reality of polygyny in the lives of African American Muslim women."--Linda Elaine Thomas, author of Under the Canopy "Majeed's womanist approach is critical, yet balanced enough to include the concerns of women, men, and children, affording readers a broad and vital gaze into the lives of these unconventional households."--Zain Abdullah, author of Black Mecca "A powerful and long overdue study of polygyny in African American Muslim communities."--Shabana Mir, author of Muslim American Women on Campus Debra Majeed sheds light on families whose form and function conflict with U.S. civil law. Polygyny--multiple-wife marriage--has steadily emerged as an alternative to the low numbers of marriageable African American men and the high number of female-led households in black America. This book features the voices of women who welcome polygyny, oppose it, acquiesce to it, or even negotiate power in its practices. Majeed examines the choices available to African American Muslim women who are considering polygyny or who are living it. She calls attention to the ways in which interpretations of Islam's primary sources are authorized or legitimated to regulate the rights of Muslim women. Highlighting the legal, emotional, and communal implications of polygyny, Majeed encourages Muslim communities to develop formal measures that ensure the welfare of women and children who are otherwise not recognized by the state.

Book Synopsis Woman in Islam by : Muhammad Zafrulla Khan
Download or read book Woman in Islam written by Muhammad Zafrulla Khan and published by Islam International Publications Ltd. This book was released on 1988-06-01 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many societies, a woman is still regarded as a second-class citizen and deprived of various basic rights enjoyed by the male population. Deeply resenting this discrimination, they have championed a fight to obtain for themselves an equal status which unfortunately to date eludes them in the more modern Western states. Whereas the pendulum has swung to the extremes and has opened the way to licentiousness in the modern society, the West has often regarded Islamic women as being backward in a male-dominated world. On the contrary, Islam was the first religion formally to grant the women a status never known before. The Holy Quran, the sacred scripture of Islam, contains hundreds of teachings, which apply both to men and women alike. The moral, spiritual and economic equality of men and women as propagated by Islam is unquestionable. The specific verses of the Holy Quran, which address themselves to men or women, deal with either their physical differences or the role they each have to play in safeguarding the moral fibre of the society Islam envisages. This short booklet, largely based on the original Quranic teachings, deals with the rights enjoyed by Muslim women, the diversity of their functions as Islam sees it, the concepts of marriage, divorce and polygamy and how social and moral values are preserved in Islam. I am particularly grateful to Muhammad Zafrulla Khan for writing a treatise on a subject so misunderstood by the West.
Book Synopsis The Rights of Women in Islam by : H. Jawad
Download or read book The Rights of Women in Islam written by H. Jawad and published by Springer. This book was released on 1998-06-30 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been argued that Islam liberated Muslim women by granting them full rights as citizens. Yet in reality we see that women have long been subjected to both cultural and political oppression. Instances such as forced marriages are sadly common in the Muslim World, as are restrictions on education and on their role in the labour force.
Book Synopsis Queer Muslim Marriage by : Ludovic-Mohamed Zahed
Download or read book Queer Muslim Marriage written by Ludovic-Mohamed Zahed and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-03-30 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between an autobiography and an essay on religion, this book relies on a Muslim gay couple's real life events to stress the facts that homosexuality, despite what some conservatives might say, is not a choice; and that it would be crazy to choose to be homosexual when one comes from the sociocultural milieu where Ludovic-Mohamed Zahed and his husband Qiyaam Jantjies Zahed come from. The author recalls his ardent youth, spiritual asceticism and burning desire. Neither passion nor rigor but both at the same time, a very singular path emerges in the text. It is a history of his contracting HIV-AIDS, before his pilgrimage to Mecca, Umm Al-Qura, the mother of all cities. In a moving scene at the ancient house of God, Ludovic-Mohamed understands that it is possible to conceive of "faith without dogma." For it is said in the Qur'an: "No constraints in religion." Can you be gay and Muslim? This book's message: Of course yes!The author is also the founder of the association HM2F (Homosexual Muslims of France), to sustain Gay Muslims in France. Mr. and Mr. Zahed they are the first gay Muslim couple to have been married publicly in front of an imam. He is now the Founder-Imam of the first European Inclusive Mosque.“What arguments can be put forward to someone who thinks that homosexuality is a sin, something against nature, which should be prosecuted and convicted? What can we say to address the plight of our Muslim gay brothers and lesbian sisters? What can we say to such obvious lack of the most basic feelings and values of Islam, such as compassion, respect for others and a sense of right and wrong? It's time to say that this issue is not a matter of divergent interpretations: it is a basic issue for the survival of Islam as a way of life based on transcendent values, rooted in the depths of the human heart. In this sense, (this book) goes beyond the foregoing issues, to address the issue from the very heart of Islamic spirituality” (Abdennur Prado, Green Book 2012 - http://www.calem.eu/GREEN-BOOKS_against-homophobia-lesbophobia-biphobia-transphobia.html). “Faith without change would be a dead faith, not a living, breathing one, for any living thing that fails to change and grow will die. The challenge facing Islam in the 21st century is whether it will continue to grow and mature and be in the spiritual vanguard as it was when it was first revealed to our beloved Prophet Muhammad ASWS, or whether it will stagnate and become degraded? Will it adapt to changing circumstances and respond to new problems, becoming more egalitarian and more just; or will it continue to be monopolized by often oppressive, homophobic and misogynistic interpretations of what it means to be a Muslim?” (Matthew Simonds, MPV-USA - http://mpvusa.org/).“The Arab Spring was a watershed in the fight against the barrier of silence and repression, which was supported by the Arab peoples, since it is now enjoying a much greater freedom of expression about our claims in all areas that relate to our society. These revolutions have worn slogans of freedom and rejection of repression, oppression and marginalization, and they have fulfilled their goals by breaking this cycle of tyranny that lasted for years... And as long as homosexuals will be an integral part of this society, things will change and we will continue to strive for recognition, justice and peace” (Marwan Bensaid, ASWAT-Morocco - http://aswatmagazine.blogspot.fr/).“I had a retreat with queer Muslims and their allies. Really the sisters and brothers there put more heart and soul into our worship together, I thought, this is what community is all about” (Amina Wadud, 2012 Tawheed Umrah pilgrimage - http://www.calem.eu/Tawheed-Umrah_islamic-pilgrimage-Mecca-Madinah-June2012-Radjab1433_with-Amina-Wadud-&-inclusive-progressive-secular-Muslims.html).
