Re: Islamic Feminism - more questions

Salam, 
there is one link where you can find a bunch of
articles (some more some less feminist), it's:

<frawthttp://www.crescentlife.com/thisthat/feminist_muslims.htm
There are articles from Riffat Hassan, Asma Barlas and
so on. You can also find a link there to get to read
the first chapter of the book of Asma Barlas:
Believing Women. Unreading patriarchal interpretations
which I highly recommand. 
Some other stuff on:
http://www.maryams.net/articles.shtml

Good luck, 
Jeanette
