METHODOLOGY USED IN ASSESSING FEMINIST LITERATURE: AN ANALYSIS OF REVIEWS PERTAINING TO QUR’AN AND WOMAN (1992) BY AMINA WADUD

Abstract:

The article discusses methodological approaches demonstrated in evaluating feminist literature, particularly Qur’an and Woman (1992), by juxtaposing a suggested individualized, multi-dimensional interpretative model (cf. Bothwell Mheta 2017) with seven other reviews, namely those of Nimat Hafez Barazangi (1995), Haifaa Jawad (2003), Rachel M. Scott (2009), Abdulkader Tayob (2009), Aysha A. Hidayatullah (2014) and Adis Duderija (2015). A detail discussion is given of the suggested interpretative model, which is Qur’an and Woman (1992) specific, as well as main features of approaches found in the other chosen reviews.
