History 151: Women In Islam
In today’s society, Muslim women are constantly being defined and redefined by popular media, cultural norms, and the Western world. Islam, however, provided us with a blueprint of what it really means to be a Muslim woman. In this course, we will explore the lives of prolific female scholars, leaders, and thinkers of the past. By examining their stories, we hope to motivate our communities today to emulate the bravery, scholarship, leadership, and entrepreneurship of these women.
Join us to be inspired by the legacy of these women, as we strive to become better Muslims ourselves.
