This Eight volume series is the author’s abridged version of his longer work with the same Arabic title, Tahrir al-Mar’ah fi ‘Asr al-Risalah spanning a twenty-five year study comprising fourteen great anthologies of ahadith, but in his book he only rarely includes hadiths from any anthology other than the two most authentic ones of al-Bukhari and Muslim. Abd al-Haleem Abu Shuqqah (d.1995) was a great teacher and scholar. He had a real passion to revive the true Islamic spirit in the ummah and dedicated his life to learning and teaching. He taught in Egypt, Syria, Qatar and Kuwait. His particular focus was on Hadith studies.

THE CHARACTER OF THE MUSLIM WOMAN Abd al-Halim Abu Shuqqah
The Prophet established complete equality between men and women as he said, “Women are full sisters of men”. Yet both have their respective special functions. This volume draws out the features of the Muslim woman’s character as outlined in the Qur’an and Sunnah. It shows that much of what we imagine to be Islamic rulings are no more than social traditions.
