Abstract:
In this pivotal, courageous, and timely analysis, which works diligently and minutely to separate truth from falsehood, right from wrong, the moral from the immoral, and the ethical from the unethical, John Andrew Morrow provides an exhaustive study of the second part of the Quranic text 4:34, dispelling the belief that Islam allows domestic violence.
