New open access book: Making Islam Work: Islamic Authority among Muslims in Western Europe

New publication by NISIS chair of the board, Prof. dr. Thijl Sunier.

The development of Islamic landscapes in Europe, is first and foremost related to Islamic authority. This study argues that Islamic authority-making among European Muslims is a social and relational practice that is much broader and versatile than theological proficiency and status.

Also including one chapter written by PhD candidate Aleeha Zahra Ali.
