 culture vs. religion August 3, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
please do ur own research and read from reliable people who have proof to what they are saying. any one can claim anything they want and can write anything they want. for instance she says that fgm is in the quran, she should have said in which chapter and what verse (its NOT there!)
im not saying that her story is not true...i know that in a lot of countries (muslim and non-muslim) there are horror stories about the treatment of women, but least try to separate culture from religion, the things that happened to her are cultural NOT religious!
Non sense May 27, 2008

This book is non sense. These lady is not Arabic and not Muslim. So, do not let her mislead you. We, Americans, are used to learn from specialists and read only peer reviewed articles by professionals. In the 21st century, you can not believe anything you read without evidence. Generally, I think nobody from any where in the world will be proud and we be bragging with his friends if his daughter lost her virginity !!! We do not need a book for that. If she is proud of her lost virginity, this is her own problem !!!
 Infidel gives a more complete picture April 25, 2008

Having read Ali's first book, I wasn't really impressed with "The Caged Virgin." I was expecting it to be a well researched documentary about women in Islam, but it turned out to be a compilation of interviews, speeches and commentary by Ali. There were many interesting points, but I found it to be choppy and difficult to keep my attention focused on the book. If you're interested in a more in-depth look at women in Islam with a first-person account, I suggest reading "Infidel" (also by Ayaan Hirsi Ali) instead.

This book is awesome and very revealing about the worldview that Muslims have. I highly recommend it for people interested in learning more about Muslims and the way they think and act.
