Thesis (Ph.D.)--Washington State University, 2009.

My dissertation asks if and in what capacities everyday South Asian transnational Muslim women are engaged in feminist interpretations or exegesis of the Qur'an. Furthermore, if everyday women are actively conducting interpretation, my research seeks to formulate and clarify the different paths women take in their understanding of the Qur'an. I hypothesize that transnational Muslim females in the West are located in a liminal space, and that it is this very point of dislocation that is likely to propel them to engage, interpret and ultimately be empowered to question existing masculine interpretations of the Qur'an.
