An internationally acclaimed scholar, who has dedicated more than fifty years of her life to understanding the Islamic world. Annemarie Schimmel examines a much-misunderstood feature of Islam: the role of women. Schimmel is critical of those--especially Western feminists--who take Islam to task without taking the time to comprehend the cultures, language, and traditions of the many societies in which Islam is the majority religion. Shattering stereotypes, Schimmel reconstructs an important but little-known chapter of Islamic spirituality. With copius examples, she shows the clear equality of wom.
""Le monde musulman condamnerait-il la femme à l'asservissement, au silence, à l'inexistence? Contre les clichés des médias, les préjugés de l'Occident, mais aussi les déviations des intégristes, ce livre permet de redécouvrir le vrai statut de la femme dans l'islam. Que Anne-Marie Schimmel relise d'un oeil neuf les textes originels et fondamentaux, comme le Coran, les traités philosophiques ou poétiques, qu'elle ressuscite des traditions trop longtemps occultées, comme le soufisme, qu'elle se fasse la biographe des grandes figures - Fatima la plus jeune fille du Prophète, Shawana l'ascète aux pleurs Intarissables, Laïla aimée à la folle par Madjnun -, elle révèle à chaque fois comment la femme peut être pleinement la partenaire de l'homme et de Dieu. Car, mères, sœurs ou compagnes, les femmes de l'islam auront été aussi d'authentiques mystiques, affirmant la spécificité de l'élément féminin, si Indispensable au monde d'aujourd'hui."--Back cover."

Shattering stereotypes, Schimmel reconstructs an important but little-known chapter of Islamic spirituality. With copius examples, she shows the clear equality of women and meni nthe conception of the Prophet Muhammad, the Quran, the feminine language of the mystical tradition, and the role of holy mothers and unmarried women as manifestations of God. This work is studded with luminous texts from Arabic, Turkish, Persian, and particularly Indo-Muslim cultures, which reveal how physical love can give expression to the highest forms of mysticism. -- Publisher."

"Propose la découverte d'un islam où le femme se révèle partenaire de l'homme à part entière. Il permet de découvrir des textes et des traditions trop longtemps occultés par les courants intégristes et de réaliser comment l'une des trois grandes traditions mystiques monothéistes a été dénaturée par des interprétations abusives."
