Purdah and the Status of Woman in Islam

📖 The Scoop

"Maulana Maududi is the founder of one of the largest political parties in Pakistan and India, the Jamaat-e-Islami, a religious party. His teachings are read and believed in by millions of devoted followers in Pakistan, India and Afghanistan. Unfortunately, his teachings have been taken to their logical extreme and have been adopted by the Taliban who are fighting against the US Army in Afghanistan and against the military in Pakistan. Nevertheless, the group he founded, Jamaat-e-Islami, has continued to flourish and grow. During his lifetime, his ideas were recognized as radical and dangerous, even more-so because of his strong power of the pen and his writing ability. Maulana Maududi was imprisoned many times and even sentenced to death, but his death sentence was commuted and he got out of jail and continued to write. It is important to study this book to find out what they really think. What you will find is everything said by Maulana Maududi is perfectly logical, rational and reasonable."--
