Sino-Muslims, Networking, and Identity in Late Imperial China

This book explores the everyday life of Muslims in late imperial China proper (“Sino-Muslims”), revealing how they integrated themselves into Chinese society, while also maintaining distinct Islamic features. Deeming “identity” as practical, interactive, and processual, it focuses on Sino-Muslims’ daily networking practices which embodied their numerous processes of identification with people around them. Through an evaluation of such practices, it displays how, since the early seventeenth century, Sino-Muslims vigorously formed and participated in popular religious and secular networks at local, translocal, and China-wide scales, including mosques, merchant associations, gentry gr...

"This book documents an Islamic–Confucian school of scholarship that flourished, mostly in the Yangzi Delta, in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Drawing on previously unstudied materials, it reconstructs the network of Muslim scholars responsible for the creation and circulation of a large corpus of Chinese Islamic written material—the so-called Han Kitab. Against the backdrop of the rise of the Manchu Qing dynasty, The Dao of Muhammad shows how the creation of this corpus, and of the scholarly network that supported it, arose in a context of intense dialogue between Muslim scholars, their Confucian social context, and China’s imperial rulers. Overturning the idea that partici...

Halal Matters

In today’s globalized world, halal (meaning ‘permissible’ or ‘lawful’) is about more than food. Politics, power and ethics all play a role in the halal industry in setting new standards for production, trade, consumption and regulation. The question of how modern halal markets are constituted is increasingly important and complex. Written from a unique interdisciplinary global perspective, this book demonstrates that as the market for halal products and services is expanding and standardizing, it is also fraught with political, social and economic contestation and difference. The discussion is illustrated by rich ethnographic case studies from a range of contexts, and consideration is given to both Muslim majority and minority societies. Halal Matters will be of interest to students and scholars working across the humanities and social sciences, including anthropology, sociology and religious studies.

"Husband by blood, what do you think should be done if his novels don't have a hit rate?" The next day, everyone in the company stopped working. They were all reading novels on their cell phones. "My dear husband, what do you think we should do if no one is willing to act out the script that they wrote?" "My dear husband, I'm lonely and cold. Why don't you go and raise a little fresh meat for me to play with?" What? This was intolerable! A certain man pressed a certain girl down on the bed and said with an evil grin on his face, "My wife is obedient, what little fresh meat? All of it is fleeting. If I have a husband, I'll take a hundred little pieces of fresh meat myself, why don't I try it?" As far as Lu Qing was concerned, the most important thing in this lifetime, besides being a pet, was to be a pet .... Deep as the sea, only foam loved; foam deep, silent deep love.
