      abstract = {In this comprehensive open access book, written for  readers from any or no religious background, Leena El-Ali  does something remarkable. Never before has anyone taken on  every last claim relating to Islam and women and countered  it not just with Quranic evidence to the contrary, but with  easy-to-use tools available to all. How can a womans  testimony be worth half of a mans? How can men divorce  their wives unilaterally by uttering three words? And whats  with the obsession with virgins in Paradise? Find the  chapter on any of the seventeen topics in this book, and  you will quickly learn a) where the myth came from and b)  how to bust it. The methodology pursued is simple. First,  the Quran is given priority over all other literary or  scriptural sources. Second, the meaning of its verses in  the original Arabic is highlighted, in contrast to English  translations and/or widespread misunderstanding or  misinterpretation.},
