Faith in Transition: A Week Inside a Gender Surgery Clinic
Islamic law does not inherently oppose non-binary gender and/or sex, and certain Muslim jurists have advanced compelling arguments for an alternative body politics.
An essay based on my visit to GAS clinic at Rush University Hospital in Chicago.
