- W4240696025 abstract "This issue goes to press as we reach the half-way mark of another monthof fasting, the blessed month of Ramadan. A month when Muslims abstainfrom food and drink between sunrise and sunset is bound to bring to the forequestions of identity, especially for Muslims living in non-Muslim societies.I marveled as two of my non-Muslim students blithely ate their fruit beforeour morning class while the Muslim students and I could only eye their foodwith envy – the pungent smell of orange peel only heightened by the fast.That the students seemed totally oblivious only increased my wonder. It is,perhaps, an odd example to mention, but as we proceeded to have a heateddiscussion of the position of women in Islam, it reminded me of the dailycomplexities of maintaining an Islamic identity in the West.This question of identity and what it means to be Muslim has, perhaps,never been so under the spotlight or so hotly debated. That is why academicanalysis, done under the constraints of the noble ideals of academia (asearch for as dispassionate and objective meaning about the human conditionas is humanly possible) is more pressing than ever.

Under a photograph of a whitemale, a caption reads: “Those who follow the Islam faith [sic] need to bekilled in the worst possible way imaginable.” These are some of the resultsof Bush’s “war on terror,” which, though meant to make the world saferfor freedom, democracy, and tolerance, is, in fact, polarizing the globe andfuelling an ethnic and racial particularism that has been growing duringthe past decade.As with this year’s other issues, the articles in this issue deal withthese perennially important questions of identity, ethnicity, the state,media, and war. Two of the three relate to the current predicament ofMuslims and the West, and the third looks at related questions in a historicaland intra-Muslim context – the role of Arab tribes in the eighth centu ry`Abbasid revolution ..." @default.
