Bedevilled World

Islam has been accused for every evil, every incident of terrorism, every action of some splinter groups in remote corners of the world. Islam has been portrayed as a savage religion, bent upon destroying world. This unjust portrayal of Islam is in sharp contrast to Christian groups responsible for atrocities or terrorist attacks throughout the century up to the present time. For these Christianity is hardly named or blamed in world media. Basque separatists, IRA, Ku Klux Klan, other terrorists groups of individuals including Oklahoma city bomber 24-year old Timothy James McVeigh (168 were killed on 19 April, 1995) in countries like Britain, Germany, Lebanon, North or South America or elsewhere in the world are never called Christian terrorists and Christianity is never blamed for their actions.

Recolonisation Of Africa Today

Africa is still one of those areas of the world where promise and opportunity sit side by side with disease, war, and desperate poverty. But, in terms of natural resources, Africa is the world's richest continent. Despite its wealth of natural resources, Africa is home to the world's most impoverished people. Several decades after formal independence for Europe's colonies in Africa, the masses are worse than at any time in the continent's history. In Africa, multinational capital has perfected a system for sucking out the resources of the continent at the expense of its inhabitants. The present crisis in Africa is the legacy of centuries of pillage, beginning with the slave trade and continuing through the colonial conquest and partition carried out by British, French, Belgian, Italian and German imperialism. Today, the methods for recolonising Africa have changed. But the goals remain the same-atomization, exploitation and domination. From a critical perspective there is concentrated ownership of the means of hegemony or call it technological apartheid within the post-industrial global system. This time around recolonisation of Africa is going on "With Neither Guns Nor Bullets."

Muslim Minorities And The Law In Europe

In Europe, millions of Muslims are living in secular democratic states by their own choice, contributing to the societies they are living in and forming now a new part of European identity. European secular legal orders grant them religious freedom and equal rights. However, the legal integration of Islam, being much less institutionalised than Christianity or Judaism, has become a challenge for European legal orders. They have to find ways for granting the full range of rights to Muslim individuals and groups by re-reading the existing rules without touching their validity as such. This book discusses the above issues and tries to find out answers for questions like does Shari'a contain intrinsic instruments to develop rules in consistence with this binding legal framework? Are Muslims defining themselves as being a minority living in the Diaspora? Are there perspectives for them to actively participate in societal institutions, based on a self-understanding of simply being an integral part of the societies they are living in?

Muslims In The Deccan

Muslims of South Asiarepresent a major chunk of the billion and a half strong Islamic ummah. Within the South Asian subcontinent, Muslims of the Deccan represent a highly visible, upwardly mobile, culturally productive segment of the ummah. However, systematic work on the history of the growth and evolution of the Deccani Muslims based on primary sources is lacking. To date no work exists on the history of the Deccani Muslims. Based on thorough research using primary sources, field observations, and personal interviews, Omar Khalidi’s work Muslims in the Deccan: A Historical Survey, fills a major gap in the history of Islam in South Asia.

Inter-Religious Marriages Among Muslims

This book presents interdisciplinary studies of inter-religious marriage between Muslims and non-Muslims (as well as between members of different Muslim communities) in locations in three societies: Bombay, India; Dakar, Thies, and Ziguinchor in Senegal; and Istanbul, Turkey. The country studies are united by a distinct theoretical approach, detailed in the Introduction. This approach proposes that the phenomenon of inter-religious marriage is a unique prism through which we can understand the complex processes and dynamics by which religious, cultural, and social identities are negotiated at the level of individuals, families, and communities. The country studies combine an emphasis on the contextual nature and understanding of identities with the narratives of the agents and actors in inter-religious marriages. Each study locates the phenomenon of inter-religious marriage with respect to law, sociocultural practices and norms, history of community relations, and other factors such as political events, that provide the broad context within which inter- religious marriages take place in that society. At the heart of each study is an analysis of interviews conducted with spouses in an inter-religious marriage.
