Challenges of the Progressive Muslim

The purpose of this book is to open the eyes of the global community to the challenges faced by progressive Muslims. These individuals must overcome their inherited traditions in order to advance their faith. To be able to understand this struggle, the origins and maintenance of these beliefs will be explored. The subjects of apostasy and women's rights shall be the main focus. Following the arguments on these issues, progressive ideas of modern Muslim thinkers will be considered as a guide on how to bring human rights to a globally accepted place within all faiths.
