What Is Attributed to Shahrur
The witness attributes to Shahrur a distinction between three pairs: father/parent, mother/female parent, and the two parents/parents. This establishes that the distinction appears in his presentation, not the specific content of the difference within each pair.
“Shahrur continues his sharp distinction between the terms: father/parent, mother/female parent, the two parents/parents.”
Atlas Explanation
This atom records a limited reading rule: when following Shahrur’s reading, the family terms mentioned should not automatically be treated as synonyms. Available entry points include Muhammad Shahrur, Islam and Faith and Women, Family, and Dress. It may also be situated in the context of father and the book mother.
Conclusion
The witness supports maintaining the distinction between these terms in reading, but it is insufficient to derive an independent definition of father, parent, mother, or female parent, or to judge that the meaning of each has been set out in this passage.
Open Question
What specific semantic differences does Shahrur posit between each pair of these terms? This requires a passage from the book that presents his definitions or detailed reasoning, which is not available in the evidence provided for this atom.
