This book covers various aspects relating to the status of women in pre-Islamic period – customs and traditions, forms of marriage in pre-Islamic period, divorce and forms of divorce, dower, traditions regarding slave-girls, and so on. It then goes on to deal with status of women in post-Islamic period – the Quranic concept of women’s rights in marriage, divorce, inheritance, custody of children, polygamy, maintenance, properly, right to earn, etc. It quotes extensively from the Quran and Sunnah. It also deals with the Arab adaat, that is, pre-Islamic customs and traditions regarding women.

Altogether, it attempts to arm Muslim women with Islamic arguments for their empowerment. The author, a renowned scholar, has sought to set the record straight by reinterpreting women’s rights in the true Quranic spirit. He argues quite convincingly that the Holy Book gives equal rights to both the sexes, and it does not discriminate between them in respect to personal, democratic and human rights. The question whether in a secular society Muslim personal law needs any change, and, if so, in which direction reform should be undertaken is dealt with in detail. The related issues of the introduction of a common civil code, doing away with religiously discriminating laws, are also considered.
