Reconsidering verses on women in the 蚕耻谤鈥檃苍

The Centre of Islamic Studies is delighted to invite you to Reconsidering Verses on Women in the Qur’an: A Conversation with Karen Bauer and Feras Hamza. This event will be held at the Kamran Djam Lecture Theatre (DLT) in the SOAS Main Building on 10 April at 17:30 BST.

Dr Karen Bauer and Dr Feras Hamza have co-authored several publications, beginning with An Anthology of Qur示anic Commentaries, Vol II: On Women. This anthology, following Volume I: On the Nature of the Divine, offers annotated translations of 蚕耻谤鈥檃苍ic commentaries spanning twelve centuries as well as interviews with contemporary Muslim scholars.听

The Anthology led them to re-examine the place of women in the 蚕耻谤鈥檃苍 itself, and in 2023 they published their monograph, Women, Households and the Hereafter in the Qur示an: A Patronage of Piety, which comprises a comprehensive analysis of the female subject in the 蚕耻谤鈥檃苍. This book offers a fresh perspective by undertaking the first historical-critical study of all the verses on women in the 蚕耻谤鈥檃苍 and by offering an initial overview of households and patronage in late antique social structures that took the place of formal state structures in the 蚕耻谤鈥檃苍鈥檚 tribal milieu.
