Half in Islam Whole in Jesus: A Woman's Worth

By Mona Sabah

Book Overview

What is the status of Women in Islam? What about the claims that Women are worth half of a Man? Are there differences in the way men and women are treated in Islam? The answer is a resounding "Yes." Author Mona Sabah delves into the mystery and history of Islam, regarding the status of women over the centuries. From infant rituals to the evidence of 2 women for 1 man's testimony in court point to women having lesser value in Islam. Muslim women are not even free to marry outside the faith and the cost of breaking the rules may result in paying with their lives. The book contrasts the way Muhammad related to women with Jesus, who broke tradition and cultural norms to empower women and give them equal value. Mona Sabah was born and raised in the Middle East, went to school in Pakistan and then moved to the United States. She has worked in the Human Resources field and teaches Management, Leadership and Cultural Diversity. Mona became a follower of Jesus Christ at the age of 35. She is the author of "From Isa to Christ: A Muslim Woman's Search for the Hand of God" and "Reaching Muslims."
