This is the first book to demonstrate that the root cause of honor killing is not culture but the Islamic doctrine of amr bil maruf. In the book a real, qualified Islamic scholar meticulously analyzes how sharia law and the Islamic religious concept of ghayra provide the motive and amr bil maruf provides the detailed script that results in honor violence and killing.

There is perhaps no greater constant in religious intuition and experience than the presence of light. In spiritual traditions East and West, light is not only ubiquitous but something that assumes strikingly similar forms in altogether different historical and cultural settings.

An esteemed group of cont...
