Musa Usman Abubakar Gender Justice Book sku-411145306

Gender Justice in Islamic Law: Homicide and Bodily Injuries is a hardcover by Musa Usman Abubakar, listed under Criminal Law Books (SKU sku-411145306). Focusing on Nigeria and Pakistan, it examines classical fiqh formulations on gender and homicide, asking whether the alleged gender injustice stems from human interpretation or the Qur'an and Sunnah.

In response to criticism of Islamic criminal law as gender discriminatory, it argues that critiques based on traditional Western human rights ideals would meet resistance from most Muslims. It proposes examining the question within the Islamic legal tradition, drawing on classical and contemporary literature, legislation and relevant case law.
