Justice is anything but a typical southern bell. Her strong opinions and feisty temper has driven away more than one suitor. She longed for a man who would accept her for all she was and who shared her beliefs. She is convinced such a man does not exist, until she meets David.

He is a self-made man in search of a woman who will not only fit into his way of life but enhance it. Against the odds they find each other only to be torn apart. They will have to fight to preserve their love or die trying.

Known throughout baseball as a player’s manager, the legendary skipper has endeared himself to all who love the game.

From its roots in the Qur’an and the life of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) to its branches in contemporary political and social movements, Islam has always been concerned with the question of social justice. The promise of a just order on earth has motivated both the reflections of the community of scholars and the actions of Muslims who have striven to realize it within their societies. Despite the disappointments that history has often delivered, the hope for justice remains undimmed as does the struggle to achieve it today. This concise volume focuses on some of the ways that the theme of justice is explored in emerging currents of Islamic thought. Chapters discuss new theological and ethical proposals in the light of contemporary philosophical developments; ideas of gender justice that provoke a reformist challenge to the received tradition; and regional contexts, such as Turkey, Iran and Japan, in which the question of Islam’s relationship to justice is sharpened by the particularities of history and locale. The contributions to this collection raise the prospect that if justice can be imagined more perfectly as an Islamic ideal, perhaps it can be brought into reality.
