The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) established complete equality between men and women, with both having their respective special functions. This volume draws on the features of the Muslim Woman pertaining to marriage in accordance to the Qur'an and Sunnah drawing upon specific examples of incidents as well as different prominent female figures in Islam during the Prophet's lifetime. It shows that much of what we imagine to be Islamic rules are no more than social or cultural tradition. It is short and concise and approaches wronged popular thinking in a good-natured manner all the while correcting much of what has been misinterpreted by culture and tradition. This book is well-sourced and given the topic, beneficial for all Muslims to pick up at some point in their lives.
