The topic that I was asked to discuss here at McGill University is the
elevation of the status of women in Islam. Many, upon hearing the title
of this lecture, might assume it to be an oxymoron because the prevalent
idea – at least in the West – is that Islam does not elevate the status
of women, but that Islam oppresses and suppresses women. So people
might find the title in itself to be shocking or a curiosity at least.
In discussing this topic – since it appears to me that this is a mixed
audience of Muslims and non-Muslims – I’d like to make my remarks and
comments brief. I will take no more than thirty to forty five minutes,
and then allow you an opportunity to ask your questions. Perhaps the
question and answer session might be more fruitful in addressing
specific accusations, understandings or misunderstandings regarding the
status of women in Islam.
