{"product_id":"of-hockey-and-hijab-sheema-khan-9781894770569","title":"Of Hockey and Hijab: Reflections of a Canadian Muslim Woman","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn these thoughtful essays, Sheema Khan--Canadian hockey mom and Harvard PhD--gives us her pointed insights on being a modern and liberal, yet practising, Muslim, especially in Canada. Tackling a host of issues, such as terrorism and fanaticism, human rights post 9\/11, Islamic law, women's rights, sharia, and the meaning of hijab, she explains Islam to the greater public while calling for mutual understanding and tolerance. She tells us \"Why Muslims are angry,\" and protests, \"You can't pigeonhole 1.6 billion Muslims,\" while calling on Muslims to \"acknowledge the rise of fanaticism.\" She explains the plausibility of Islamic financing and applies the Charter of Rights to Canada . \"Can there be Islamic democracy?\" she asks, and then, \"Will Quebec adopt France 's peculiar brand of liberty?\" Provocative and original, even-handed and conciliatory, these essays are an important contribution to an urgent modern debate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sheema Khan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1894770560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781894770569\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tsar Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.20w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eQuill \u0026amp; Quire\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2010 pg. 43","brand":"Sheema Khan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48453946474751,"sku":"9781894770569","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6281e3c2-abd6-4201-8ce6-3ed5432fc894.jpg?v=1777303202","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/of-hockey-and-hijab-sheema-khan-9781894770569","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
