Islam no injustice women all. perception, not reality. Islam the first religion the world, the Qur'anic pronouncements on gender issue to give those well-defined rights and even made them equal man. Then question arises why lagging behind in Islamic countries appear subordinated men? to patriarchal culture. since societies generally lagging behind economic and educational development, patriarchy in these countries remains and justification under the garb distorted interpretations and medieval texts which came that period to superiority women.
However, some known Islamic scholars reform situation and advocated reforms personal laws, especially encounter with colonialism century onwards. have also attempted Muslim personal known Sheridan laws and tried to restore Qur'anic of justice. Some the essays have been written on certain issues, and some essays have been written on reformers like Maulavi Mumtaz Ali Khan and others.
essays will dispel many misunderstandings both among Muslims as non-Muslims about gender issues Islam. If it happens this book would have served its purpose.
Of course some countries like Indonesia, Malaysia and others remained comparatively peaceful though signs of unrest are there in these countries too. In other words the countries covered by Arab Spring were mostly affected. And on this occasion a private agency in Iran once again renewed the prize offer (with increased amount of 3.3 million dollar) on Rushdie's head.
Rushdie of course reacted characteristically by saying that blasphemy should be one's right. It is difficult to say what shape this renewed offer on Rushdie's head will take. It may remain only a formal announcement. It seems difficult that it would become a raging controversy as it did when Ayatollah Khomeini had declared price on Rushdie's head. Politically it was very different context.
Ayatollah Khomeini then was a great hero for the Muslim youth as he had declared America a great Satan (Shaytan-e-buzurg) and America all over the Muslim world then was seen as an evil incarnate who had tried to stop an Islamic revolution and Rushdie was seen as a western agent who had, in the name of human rights, insulted the Prophet of Islam thus trying to weaken Islamic revolution. One cannot expect that kind of reaction from the Muslim youth anymore.
