Women and the Qur’an

TOPIC: Women and the Qur’an

The recommended length for the paper is 7 to 8 pages, in double-spaced, 12 point font.

Some possible topics are listed below. For these suggested topics, you will be using two of the
assigned course readings in addition to two sources (either primary or secondary) you yourself
select for your research essay (in total, four sources). The required sources that you use for
this paper must be academic sources/publications.

Write a Short Research Proposal: Now that you have selected a preliminary
general issue or problem to research, start investigating the sources available on that
topic. You should not only be looking to collect information but also be thinking about
the ways in which you could frame an argument. A paper is more than a “book report.”
You will be required to make a claim, often presented in the form of a “thesis
statement” near the beginning of your paper, and attempt to defend it over the course
of your paper. An outline is a way to get you thinking at an early stage about what you
would like to say in the paper, and about what sources would be useful to you in order
to say it. Pretend that you are applying for a special scholarship or grant that would
fund your research. In just one or two typed pages, summarize what you plan to
investigate, how you plan to investigate it, what theories or methods will inform your
investigation, and (tentatively) what you think you might conclude as a result of your
investigations.
