This analyzes Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari's chronicle (d. 923) History of Prophets and Kings using a gender perspective. It focuses on al-Tabari's representation of women during the Madina period, arguing that through such a representation al-Tabari projects his Abbasid gender norms on the women of this period. The thesis focuses on four main subjects in relation to al-Tabari's text: the image of rebellious non-Muslim women, 'A'isha's involvement in the Battle of the Camel, and women as rational and emotional players in the Madina period.
