In the house of the law: Judith E Tucker Publisher: English View all editions and formats Summary: It was a time during which Muslim legal thinkers gave a great deal of attention to women's roles in society.

Challenging prevailing views on Islam and gender as well as contemporary Islamist interpretations of the tradition, Judith Tucker shows that Islamic law was more fluid and flexible than previously thought. By examining court cases on marriage, divorce, childrearing, and sexuality, Tucker sheds light on the relations between men and women, parents and children in the societies of those times.
