The Debate On The Rule Of Cause & Prevention & Its Strict Implementation: Volume 6 of Women's Emancipation During the Time of the Prophet SAW

by: Abd Al- Halim Abu Shuqqah 

In this volume the author devotes this volume to a debate concerning the application of the rule of cause prevention. He shows that a strict and extremist application has been the reason for many restrictions that social tradition in many Muslim countries have imposed on women, depriving them of much that is permissible in Islam. He cites clear evidence confirming that women’s full participation in social life was part of the Prophet’s guidance. His approach is always balanced between the freedom Islam gives to women’s participation in life’s activities and the need to adhere to Islamic regulations and values concerning attire and behavior.
