This book offers a new direction for the study of contemporary Islam by focusing on what being Muslim means in peoples everyday lives. It complements existing studies by focusing not on mosque-going, activist and devout Muslims, but on those who are nominal believers, or who put their religion to work in unorthodox ways. As well as offering fresh empirical studies of everyday lived Islam, the book offers a new approach which calls for the study of high religion and everyday popular religion in relation to one another.
This book offers a new direction for the study of contemporary Islam by focusing on what being Muslim means in peoples everyday lives. It complements existing studies by focusing not on mosque-going, activist Muslims, but on how people live out their faith in schools, workplaces and homes, and in dealing with problems of health, wellbeing and relationships. As well as offering fresh empirical studies of everyday lived Islam, the book offers a new approach which calls for the study of official religion and everyday tactical religion in relation to one another. It discusses what this involves, the methods it requires, and how it relates to existing work in Islamic Studies.
