Tackling a host of issues, such as terrorism and fanaticism, human rights post 9/11, Islamic law, women's rights, sharia, and the meaning of hijab, she explains Islam to the greater public while calling for mutual understanding and tolerance. She tells us "Why Muslims are angry," and protests, "You can't pigeonhole 1.6 billion Muslims," while calling on Muslims to "acknowledge the rise of fanaticism." She explains the plausibility of Islamic financing and applies the Charter of Rights to Canada. "Can there be Islamic democracy?" she asks, and then, "Will Quebec adopt France's peculiar brand of liberty?" Provocative and original, even-handed and conciliatory, these essays are an important contribution to an urgent modern debate."--Jacket. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Islam.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85068390 650 0 Women in Islam|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85147581|zCanada.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n79007233-781 650 7 Islam.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/979776 650 7 Women in Islam.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1177797 651 7 Canada.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204310 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aKhan, Sheema.|tOf hockey and hijab. |dToronto : TSAR, ©2009|z9781894770569|w(DLC) 2010413170 |w(OCoLC)406118901 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=444169|zOnline eBook.
