Book Synopsis American Muslim Women, Religious Authority, and Activism by : Juliane Hammer
Download or read book American Muslim Women, Religious Authority, and Activism written by Juliane Hammer and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2012-04-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hammer looks at the work of significant female American Muslim writers, scholars, and activists since 1990, using their writings as a lens for a larger discussion of Muslim intellectual production in America and beyond. Centered on the controversial women-led Friday prayer in March 2005, Hammer uses this event and its aftermath to address themes of faith, community, and public opinion. While gender is the catalyst for Hammer's study, her examination of these women's intellectual output touches on themes central to contemporary Islam: authority, tradition, Islamic law, justice, and authenticity.
Book Synopsis Muslim Cool by : Su'ad Abdul Khabeer
Download or read book Muslim Cool written by Su'ad Abdul Khabeer and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interviews with young Muslims in Chicago explore the complexity of identities formed at the crossroads of Islam and hip hop This groundbreaking study of race, religion and popular culture in the 21st century United States focuses on a new concept, “Muslim Cool.” Muslim Cool is a way of being an American Muslim—displayed in ideas, dress, social activism in the ’hood, and in complex relationships to state power. Constructed through hip hop and the performance of Blackness, Muslim Cool is a way of engaging with the Black American experience by both Black and non-Black young Muslims that challenges racist norms in the U.S. as well as dominant ethnic and religious structures within American Muslim communities. Drawing on over two years of ethnographic research, Su'ad Abdul Khabeer illuminates the ways in which young and multiethnic US Muslims draw on Blackness to construct their identities as Muslims. This is a form of critical Muslim self-making that builds on interconnections and intersections, rather than divisions between “Black” and “Muslim.” Thus, by countering the notion that Blackness and the Muslim experience are fundamentally different, Muslim Cool poses a critical challenge to dominant ideas that Muslims are “foreign” to the United States and puts Blackness at the center of the study of American Islam. Yet Muslim Cool also demonstrates that connections to Blackness made through hip hop are critical and contested—critical because they push back against the pervasive phenomenon of anti-Blackness and contested because questions of race, class, gender, and nationality continue to complicate self-making in the United States.

Download or read book Living Islam written by Mirza Yawar Baig and published by Standard Bearers Academy. This book was released on with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not what we know but what we do with it, which makes the difference. This is the foundational principle in Islam where Allah combined Imaan (Faith) with A'amaal us Saalih (good deeds). If we claim to have Imaan (faith) we have to prove that claim by practicing that faith. That is not restricted to outward appearance and formal worship alone but goes far beyond to permeate every aspect of the life of a Muslim. That is the purpose of the coming of Rasoolullah(s)who demonstrated how to live this life such that every action is converted to an act of worship. That is the power of the Sunnah - the practice of Islam. As long as Muslims lived by this code and ensured that Islam was reflected in every aspect of their lives, Islam spread in the world. When Muslims left the way of their own Prophet and started following the false messengers of commercialism, Islam became the target of the world. What we need to realize is that Allah sent us to show the world how to live - not to learn from them. Allah sent us to stand out as beacons of goodness, justice and compassion for all those who live on this planet - not for Muslims alone. Allah sent us to live as benchmarks for others to follow not as chickens scratching in the dirt competing for worms. Allah sent us to win hearts - not to win arguments. This book is an attempt to help us to do that once again by concentrating on practicing Islam in every aspect of our lives - not restrict ourselves to simply talking about it and lecturing others. I ask Allah for His Pleasure and acceptance for that is the only thing that matters. Mirza Yawar Baig
Book Synopsis The Bad Muslim Discount by : Syed M. Masood
Download or read book The Bad Muslim Discount written by Syed M. Masood and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following two families from Pakistan and Iraq in the 1990s to San Francisco in 2016, The Bad Muslim Discount is an inclusive, comic novel about Muslim immigrants finding their way in modern America. “Masood’s novel presents a stereoscopic, three-dimensional view of contemporary Muslim America: the way historical conflict in the Middle East lingers in individual lives, the way gossip travels in a close-knit immigrant community.” —The New York Times Book Review It is 1995, and Anvar Faris is a restless, rebellious, and sharp-tongued boy doing his best to grow up in Karachi, Pakistan. As fundamentalism takes root within the social order and the zealots next door attempt to make Islam great again, his family decides, not quite unanimously, to start life over in California. Ironically, Anvar's deeply devout mother and his model-Muslim brother adjust easily to life in America, while his fun-loving father can't find anyone he relates to. For his part, Anvar fully commits to being a bad Muslim. At the same time, thousands of miles away, Safwa, a young girl living in war-torn Baghdad with her grief-stricken, conservative father will find a very different and far more dangerous path to America. When Anvar and Safwa's worlds collide as two remarkable, strong-willed adults, their contradictory, intertwined fates will rock their community, and families, to their core. The Bad Muslim Discount is an irreverent, poignant, and often hysterically funny debut novel by an amazing new voice. With deep insight, warmth, and an irreverent sense of humor, Syed M. Masood examines universal questions of identity, faith (or lack thereof), and belonging through the lens of Muslim Americans.
