Women lead an Islamic revival in Syria

Posted by Justin Long ⋅ September 1, 2006 ⋅ Email This Post Email This Post ⋅ Print This Post Print This Post ⋅ View comments

An Islamic revival for women in Syria could add up to a potent challenge to this determinedly secular state. Though government officials vociferously deny it, Syria is becoming increasingly religious and its national identity is weakening. If Islam replaces that identity, it may undermine the unity of a society that is ruled by a Muslim religious minority, the Alawites, and includes many religious groups (New York Times).
