<b>Islam the Choice of Thinking Women</b>
<i>Author: Ismail Adam Patel</i>
From the back cover:
'...the status of women in Islam has been answered in a clear, sober, captivating and intellectual fashion. The appeal and merit of the book is in the rich references to the original sources. It is prudent to make an informed choice about the way of life one adopts. This book will assist individuals in their choice, insha Allah... A highly commendable book to thinking men and women from all walks of life.'

I found this to be one of the best books I have found yet to clearly explain the role women play in every society in today's world. How the hijab liberates rather than opresses the woman, and how the woman in Islam is elevated above all other women in dignity and honor.
