Home Truths: A Global Report on Equality in The Muslim Family

---

Home Truths: A Global Report on Equality in the Muslim Family presents a comprehensive analysis of gender inequality within Muslim family laws across various countries. Produced by Musawah, a global movement for equality and justice in the Muslim family, the report combines legal, theological, and sociological perspectives to reveal how discriminatory interpretations of Sharia and patriarchal cultural practices affect women’s rights in marriage, divorce, custody, and inheritance. It advocates for reform grounded in Islamic principles of justice (*‘adl*) and equality (*musawah*), emphasizing that family laws can evolve to reflect contemporary realities and human rights standards. By drawing on case studies, legal texts, and voices from Muslim communities worldwide, the report offers both critique and hope for achieving equality and dignity for all members of the Muslim family.
