The Diversity of Muslim Women: Afghanistan and Beyond

Morya Dale. Muslim women today number almost a billion, 12 percent of the world’s population, spread across the globe. When we meet a Muslim woman, who are we meeting? What has been her experience of daily life and faith? Our role is not to make generalizations about those women we encounter and their backgrounds, history, or education, but rather to listen well and to ask questions about them or the communities from which they come. Wherever we encounter them, we seek to understand their unique situation, and point them to the God who fully sees and loves them.
