Rebellious Wives, Neglectful Husbands explores significant shifts in modern Qur'anic commentaries on the subject of women against the backdrop of broader historical, intellectual, and political developments in early twentieth-century North Africa. Hadia Mubarak argues that the historicalcontext of colonialism, nationalism, and modernization in the modern Muslim world set into motion new ways of engaging with the subject of women in the Qur'an. Focusing on Qur'anic commentaries as a literary genre, Mubarak offers a critical and comparative analysis of three influential, modern, Sunni Qur'anic commentaries - authored by an Islamic modernist, an Islamist, and a neo-traditionalist respectively - with medieval commentaries spanning the ninthto fourteenth centuries on polygyny, divorce, sexual neglect, and marital hierarchy. In contrast to assessments of the exegetical tradition as monolithically patriarchal, Rebellious Wives, Neglectful Husbands identifies critical shifts in modern Qur'anic commentaries on gender, illustrating the waysin which modern commentators challenge patriarchal interpretations of the Qur'an while entrenching others. Rather than pit a seemingly egalitarian Qur'an against an allegedly patriarchal exegetical tradition, Mubarak captures a tafsir tradition with pluralistic, complex, and evolving interpretationsof women and gender in the Qur'an. Mubarak argues that the capacity to bring new meanings to bear on the Qur'an is not only intellectually viable but inherent to the exegetical tradition. | Rebellious Wives Neglectful Husbands by Hadia Mubarak, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
