Transforming Faith: The Story Of Alhuda And Islamic Revivalism Among Urban Pakistani Women (Gender And Globalization),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Over the last decade, there has been an increasing number of middle and upperclass urban Pakistani women actively turning toward Islam via AlHuda, an Islamic school for women aiming to transform the women who absorb its message into pious subjects. Established in the early 1990s, AlHuda is unique in its ability to attract a following among these women, a feat other religious groups have been unsuccessful in accomplishing. In Transforming Faith, Sadaf Ahmad deftly explores how AlHuda is fostering a new generation of educated, urban, middleclass women to become veiled conservatives. She offers an engrossing and sensitive account of how the schools aggressive recruiting methods through informal religious study groups and a oneyear degree program combined with the schools techniques of persuasive teaching methods have turned AlHuda into a social movement. As a woman of Pakistani origin, Ahmad offers an indepth look at the students and members of AlHuda in ways that a cultural outsider would be excluded from doing. She reveals that although Pakistani women are better educated than ever before they still face social barriers that limit them from working or pursuing further education. Ahmads groundbreaking work demonstrates AlHudas everwidening teachings and influence in Pakistan and in its recent global extensions. More broadly, this book illuminates how AlHuda uses the trappings of modernity to engage educated women in a kind of religious study that transforms their ideology, behavior, and lifestyle within a particular Islamic framework. Because of AlHudas teachings, Pakistani society is changing, as is the rest of the Muslim world.
