The Muslim Idea of Feminism (Part 3)

So when the woman is placed in such a disadvantageous position, she can strike back but with severe legal consequences. The only way to change things is through the law itself, which the lower class-while numerous-do not have the political connections to do so. Activists of the higher class have shown to be quite effective at publishing articles and works capable of showing the female life. While some are more feminist than others, like Harem Years like Huda Shaarawi or Dreams of Trespass by Fatima Mernissi, the fact that woman can speak out without censorship preventing these books from being seen is very important; releasing to the Global community exposes that community to their own faults and misgivings.
