Description
"Over two million people die each year as a result of an AIDS-related illness, While religious communities are often at the centre of the struggle against the pandemic, especially in the developing world, there has been a troubling lack of material written about how to address it from an Islamic perspective. This pioneering work fills this vacuum and features contributions from a number of internationally known activists and scholars of Islam, including: Malik Badri, Abdulaziz Sachedina, Scott Sirajal-Haqq Kugle, Marina Mahathir, Mohammad Hashim Kamali and Kecia Ali." "Examining specific issues linked with the spread of AIDS such as gender, masculinity, sexuality and drug use, Islam and AIDS provides a vital insight into possible Islamic approaches, in both law and ethics, to one of the most urgent crises facing humankind today."--Jacket.
