Muslim Women in Britain

Patterns of Faith

Available for over a year

A young British woman talks about being both a career woman and a Muslim, and how they happily coincide. "There is nothing in Islam that says a woman shouldn't work. What inspires me is when I see the strong Muslim women in the early 7th Century who had high positions" she says.
