美国穆斯林妇女是一个不断增长的人口，其虐待的经验在很大程度上仍然没有研究。为了开始修正这一知识差距，本文探讨了美国穆斯林妇女的经验，离开虐待的合作伙伴，在一个更大的叙事研究报告。据参与者描述，离开的过程包括四个阶段：达到饱和点，获得khula（由妻子发起的伊斯兰离婚），面对家人和/或社区的反对，以及恢复自我。每一个阶段都说明了面向群体的文化价值观在塑造参与者离开施虐者的经历方面的重要性。我将研究结果与现有文献进行比较，最后为这一领域的研究和实践提供建议。
American Muslim women are a growing population whose experiences of abuse remain largely unstudied. To begin to amend this gap in knowledge, this article examines American Muslim women's experiences of leaving abusive partners as reported in a larger narrative study. The process of leaving as described by participants includes four stages: reaching the point of saturation, getting khula (an Islamic divorce initiated by wives), facing fimily and/or community disapproval, and reclaiming the self. Each of these stages illustrates the significance of group-oriented cultural values in shaping participants' experiences of leaving their abusers. I compare study findings with existing literature and conclude by offering suggestions for research and practice in this area.
