The book examines the complex portrayal of Muslim women in European society, highlighting their central role in political and gender debates. It critiques the reductionist views that depict them as passive and submissive, often tied to stereotypes surrounding their religious attire, such as the headscarf. These perceptions contribute to their "invisibility" and reinforce a harmful "us" versus "them" narrative. The text challenges these stereotypes and calls for a deeper understanding of Muslim women's agency and contributions, countering the simplistic and prejudiced interpretations prevalent in Western discourse.
