- Description
- This earliest known work in Islam devoted entirely to women's spirituality was written by the Persian Sufi Abu 'Abd ar-Rahman as-Sulami. The long-lost text provides portraits of 80 Sufi women who lived in the central Islamic lands between the 8th and 11th centuries C.E. As spiritual masters and exemplars of Islamic piety, they served as respected teachers and guides in the same way as did Muslim men, often surpassing men in their understanding of Sufi doctrine, the Qur'an, and Islamic spirituality. This bilingual edition includes pages from 10th-century manuscript.

- Description
- What did it mean to be a wife, woman, or slave in a society in which a land-owning woman was forbidden to lay with her male slave but the same slave might be allowed to take concubines? Jurists frequently compared marriage to purchase and divorce to manumission. The emerging consensus demonstrated a self-perpetuating analogy between a husband’s status as master and a wife’s as slave, even as jurists insisted on the dignity of free women and the masculine rights of enslaved husbands. This book presents an analysis of how jurists conceptualized marriage : its rights and obligations, using the same rhetoric of ownership used to describe slavery. As the jurists discussed claims spouses could make on each other: including dower, sex, obedience, and companionship, they returned repeatedly to issues of legal status: wife and concubine, slave and free, male and female.
