Neo-Traditional Salafi Qur'an-Sunnah Hermeneutic and the Construction of a Normative Muslimah Image
Abstract:
The aim of this article is to outline and analyse the delineating features of the Neo-Traditional Salafi model of interpreting Qur'an and Sunnah indicants and the interpretational implications of this model in relation to constructing a "normative" concept of a Muslimah (model for a Muslim woman). The author argues that the NTS interpretational model is based on a range of epistemological and methodological assumptions pertaining to the conceptualisation and interpretation of the nature and the scope of the Qur'an and Sunnah.Document Type: Research article
