Abstract

Faith plays an important role in the lives of many Muslim women in Australia. This chapter builds upon earlier research that interrogates how faith impacts the decision-making processes of Muslim women in the context of domestic and family violence. Further, this chapter reflects on the role of faith in the design and provision of domestic and family violence services to support Muslim victim-survivors.
