dc.description.notesProvides an overview of the nature of research conducted into Muslim and Arab women's experiences of domestic violence thus far before presenting the methodology and results of the study. The study essentially aimed to explore American Muslim women's experiences of leaving their abusive partners and the various phases through which they progress before becoming free from violence. Generally, these phases consisted firstly of the 'point of saturation', where a choice to leave is made despite anticipated social/cultural ramifications. Secondly, Khula, or an Islamic divorce, is sought. Thirdly, the woman faces disapproval from both family and the community in many cases. Lastly, a rediscovery of the self following the trauma was common.en
