SHORTLISTED for the ICAS Book Prize 2013 http://www.icassecretariat.org/icasbookprize2013shortlistsMuch nuance and variability have been lost in the process of the reductivist analysis of Islam post 9/11 and, as this study amply demonstrates, we are all the poorer as a result. This exhaustive examination of the rise and spread of the Tablighi Jamat, arguably the worlds largest Islamic missionary movement, locates it in the larger perspective of global Islam and developments in the Muslim societies. Combining an overview of the history and current sociopolitical perception of the Tablighi Jama'at with a more analytical and philosophical approach to fundamental questions of identity, subjectpositioning and representation, the author creates a comprehensive resource of interest to all scholars and students of Islam. Drawing on exhaustive research and records of conversion narratives of the new members of Tablighi Jamaat, cited here at length, the author creates a unique perspective on this complex phenomenon from both an internal and external viewpoints. AhmadNoor locates the spiritual framework of the movement in the context of its perception in the eyes of the political and religious authorities of the countries where it has a following, as well as the Western securocrat approach.
