The Noble Woman

The Author Aliya Butt works as a Senior Crown Prosecutor in the Midlands. Ms Butt was first inspired to write this book whilst she was training as a barrister. She took special interest in the status of women in Islam and learnt that the idea that Islam is oppressive towards women is a myth. On the contrary, women are highly respected and enjoy a dignified role in Islamic culture. This led her to explore why there is a gap between the reality and the popular concept of Islam. Her search to find the answer led to the compilation of The Noble Woman.
