Muslim Political Discourse in Postcolonial India
The book examines the postcolonial Muslim political discourse through monuments. It establishes a link between the process by which historic buildings become monuments and the gradual transformation of these historic/legal entities into political objects. The author studies the multiple interpretations of Indo-Islamic historical buildings as ‘political sites’ as well as emerging Muslim religiosities and the internal configurations of Muslim politics in India. He also looks at the modes by which a memory of a royal Muslim past is articulated for political mobilisation. Raising critical questions such as whether Muslim responses to political questions are homogenous, the book will greatly interest researchers and students of political science, modern Indian history, sociology, as well as the general reader interested in contemporary India.

The Monologic Imagination
The pioneering and hugely influential work of Mikhail Bakhtin has led scholars in recent decades to see all discourse and social life as inherently "dialogical." No speaker speaks alone, because our words are always partly shaped by our interactions with others, past and future. Moreover, we never fashion ourselves entirely by ourselves, but always do so in concert with others. Bakhtin thus decisively reshaped modern understandings of language and subjectivity. And yet, the contributors to this volume argue that something is potentially overlooked with too close a focus on dialogism: many speakers, especially in charged political and religious contexts, work energetically at crafting monologues, single-voiced statements to which the only expected response is agreement or faithful replication. Drawing on ethnographic case studies from the United States, Iran, Cuba, Indonesia, Algeria, and Papua New Guinea, the authors argue that a focus on "the monologic imagination" gives us new insights into languages' political design and religious force, and deepens our understandings of the necessary interplay between monological and dialogical tendencies.

A Thinking Person’s Guide to Islam
The world is at a crossroads today. A tiny minority of Muslims seems to be bent on hijacking the religion of Islam and bringing it into perpetual conflict with the rest of the world. Because of their actions, very few non-Muslims understand the real difference between Islam as it has always been, and the distorted perversions of Islam today. This book is an attempt to positively say what Islam actually is—and always was—as well as what it is not. “Lucid in its explanations, unassailable in its logic; a book of the moment; simply spot on.” – H.E. Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, The Sultan of Sokoto, Nigeria “Easy to read, easy to understand and easy to swallow and digest. It very beaut...
Buku Pintar Hadits Edisi Revisi
Hadits adalah sumber ajaran Islam kedua sesudah Al-Qur’an. Karenanya, hadits lantas menjadi Al-masdaru Tasyri’ al-Islamy alTsany (sumber syariat Islam kedua). Terkadang, hadits atau sunnah ini juga disebut sebagai atsar atau akhbar, yang sesungguhnya berfungsi sebagai penjelas isi Al-Qur’an. Ketika membagi ilmu-ilmu keislaman yang sudah matang, Imam Badruddin Az-Zarkasyi (1334-1391) mengatakan bahwa hadits sebagai sumber penting ajaran Islam dikategorikan sebagai ilmu yang sudah matang karena sudah “terbakar” (nadhaja waqad ikhtaraqa). Sudah “terbakar” berarti sudah banyak didiskusikan oleh para ulama mutaqaddimin (terdahulu) yang otoritatif—karena sudah memiliki kaidah-kaidah dan metodologi yang teruji dan telah disepakati. Selain hadits, ilmu bahasa (nahwu dan shorof) serta iqih dan ushul iqih juga termasuk dalam kategori sudah “terbakar”. Sementara itu, ilmu tafsir masih belum diterima sebagai “ilmu yang inal” lantaran masih belum memiliki kaidah-kaidah yang bisa dikompromi dan disepakati oleh para pembesar ulama otoritatif.
Early Childhood Education in the 21st Century
Providing a selection of papers presented at ICECE 2018, a biennial conference organised by the Early Childhood Education Program, Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia. The conference’s general theme was "Finding Alternative Approaches, Theories, Frameworks, and Practices of Early Childhood Education in the 21th Century." Distinct from other periods of time, the 21st century is characterised by so much knowledge -easy to access but hard to grasp, borderless and hyper-connected society mediated by the internet, high competitiveness -not only within a country but across countries, high mobility, and widening economic discrepancy as neoliberalism has strengthened its influence on every sector of ...

This book is a social anthropological analysis (based on ethnographic fieldwork) of the discourse and social practice of an Islamic-mystic community in London, namely, the branch of Naqshbandi Sufi order led by Sheikh Nazim of Cyprus. The Naqshbandi order is a well-known mystical institution having a widespread historical and contemporary influence on the life of many Muslims all over the world, including the West. The book focuses particularly on the definitions and reflections of the members of this branch upon themselves and the wider modern ('western') society outside their close-knit community. It reveals that the Islamic discourse of the community encompasses a multitude of expressions...
Religious Literacy in Secular Religious Education
In this volume, questions are addressed revolving around religious literacy and education. The term religious literacy is explored as the ability to discern and analyze intersections of religion with social, political, and cultural life in pluralistic societies. Questions about what types of religious literacies are possible in a non-confessional, and even secular, educational context are in focus. It delves into the intricate relationship between religious literacy, religious education in the Nordic countries, and the development of subject knowledge and generic abilities. The Nordic countries, as modern secular welfare states with shared characteristics, provide an intriguing framework for...
