Paperback. Condition: New. Homosexuality is anathema to Islam - or so the majority of both believers and non-believers suppose. Throughout the Muslim world, it is met with hostility, where state punishments range from hefty fines to the death penalty. Likewise, numerous scholars and commentators maintain that the Qur'an and Hadith rule unambiguously against same-sex relations.This pioneering study argues that there is far more nuance to the matter than most believe. In its narrative of Lot, the Qur'an could be interpreted as condemning lust rather homosexuality. While some Hadith are fiercely critical of homosexuality, some are far more equivocal. This is the first book length treatment to offer a detailed analysis of how Islamic scripture, jurisprudence, and Hadith, can not only accommodate a sexually sensitive Islam, but actively endorse it.…

Islam is often described as abstract ascetic and uniquely disengaged from the human body. The author refutes this assertion in the first full study of Islamic mysticism as it relates to the human body. Examining Sufi conceptions of the body in religious writings from the late fifteenth through the nineteenth centuries AD the author demonstrates that literature from this era often treated saints physical bodies as sites of sacred power. Sufis and Saints Bodies focuses on six important saints from Sufi communities in North Africa and South Asia. The author singles out a specific part of the body to which each saint is frequently associated in religious literature. The saints bodies the author argues are treated as symbolic resources for generating religious meaning communal solidarity and the experience of sacred power. In each chapter the author features a particular theoretical problem drawing methodologically from religious studies anthropology studies of gender and sexuality theology feminism and philosophy. Bringing a new perspective to Islamic studies the author shows how an important Islamic tradition integrated myriad understandings of the body in its nurturing role in the material social and spiritual realms. 346 pp.…
