This book directs a harsh criticism of the legislative and political system of the countries of the Arab Levant, which violates international human rights instruments, which affects - in particular - the rights of women, especially non-Muslim women who are subject to discrimination on the basis of gender and religion.
Through a detailed legal study, Dr. Nael Girgis, the Christian influence of the social and legal system on the rights of Christian women, and the Islamic influence on their rights as well, sheds light on many of the issues that detract from those rights, including: depriving her of inheritance, custody of her children, granting her citizenship to them, and obligating her to obey and submit to men. Who has priority in guardianship over the children. The study is also distinguished by its comparison of the legal situation of Christian women in several Levantine countries, highlighting the contradiction with the International Bill of Human Rights.
Thus, the book in our hands is an in-depth legal research that reveals the injustices that befall Eastern women in general, and women who profess or follow Christianity in particular, which guides us to aspects of legislative reform to contribute to building states of law and citizenship that treat their citizens on an equal footing.
