This bold and original study centres of the female voice of Aisha in the very heart of Islamic sacred texts; the Prophetic tradition, seeking to wrest Islam from patriarchal orthodoxy and reclaim its egalitarian impulse. Aisha's example legitimises Muslim women's agency and right to question male authority to reach their full self-actualisation.
