I will discuss my work on Muslim and Arab women's education, identity development and belief system as well as feminist and gender issues, focusing on my recent book, Woman’s Identity and Rethinking the Hadith (2015). This book is a first step in a comprehensive attempt to contrast Hadith with the Qur'an to uncover unjust practices concerning women and gender issues. The book received strong support from the first reviewers http://www.routledge.com/products/9781472446787: “This is an important work on a timely issue that has been the subject of several scholarly works on Hadith studies and women and gender studies in Islam. I wish to stress that Nimat Hafez Barazangi has situated the subject in its historical context and provided important analysis and details relevant to the subject of Hadith and Women’s identities;” “I feel that this work provides ample evidence of wide reading in the field of Hadith, and an important thesis that is based on the Qur’anic assertion that Islamic “Shari’ah” is a guided path and not a law”
