THE WOMEN IN ISLAM JOURNAL

A PLATFORM FOR LEARNING, ACTIVISM, AND CONVERSATION IN ARABIC AND ENGLISH Women in Islam is an annual journal published in both English and Arabic by SIHA Network. The journal provides a space for the narratives of women and men in Muslim societies, with a focus on East Africa, and also explores and reflects on the variety of interpretations of Islam and their interactions with understandings of feminism and gender equality. The core aim of the journal is to encourage people living in Muslim communities to exercise activism against dogmatic discourses based on militant and Salafi religious views. The journal is comprised of contributions from Muslim and non-Muslim scholars and activists from around the world.
