Focusing on the experiences of Somali refugee women, the book challenges prevailing debates about the impact of accommodating Islam on women's rights in Europe and North America. It critiques discussions surrounding issues like the headscarf and religious arbitration, arguing for a nuanced understanding of women's roles as active participants in democratic society. By moving beyond binary arguments, it emphasizes the complexity of women's lives and the importance of considering their perspectives in discussions about culture and religion.
