Descrizione
Riepilogo:This paper presents a hermeneutic re-reading of the Qurʾanic Verses 43: 15–19 in the Chapter of Ornament (Surah al-Zukhruf), aiming to excavate the original interrogative nature of the Qurʾanic approach to woman’s positioning, and to expose the accumulative narratives that collapse the ontological into the cultural, reflecting negatively on the community. The paper argues against the assumption that the verses’ telos is to describe and prescribe; evidencing instead their critical and reproving tone.
