This book provides the first indepth, widescope treatment of dawa. A term difficult to translate, dawa covers a semantic field ranging from the call or invitation to Islam, to religious preaching and proselytizing, to the mission and message of Islam. Historically dawa has been directed outward to nonbelievers, but in modern times it has turned increasingly inward to straying Muslims. While the media and many scholars have focused on extremism and militant groups that have raised the banner of jihad, this volume argues that dawa, not jihad, forms the backbone of modern Islamic politics and religiosity, and that the study of dawa is essential for understanding contemporary Islamic politics as well as jihadist activity. Contributors represent a variety of approaches and come from a range of academic, religious, and national backgrounds. In these essays, they analyze the major discourses of dawa, their embodiment in the major Islamic movements of the twentieth century, and their transformation into new forms of activism through the media, the state, and jihadi groupsincluding alQaeda and ISISin the twentyfirst century.
