Focusing on the complex issue of honor killings in Indian and Jordanian societies, the book challenges the simplistic attribution of these crimes solely to Islam, emphasizing the need for a broader socio-cultural and legal analysis. It highlights the intersection of various identities that contribute to these acts and critiques the narrow interpretations that demonize religions. Additionally, the book conducts a comparative study of legal frameworks in India and Jordan regarding honor crimes, while also calling attention to the overlooked male victims of such violence.
