Review
'By systematically combining a religious studies approach with social science knowledge Sophie Gilliat-Ray has produced a comprehensive introduction to Islam and Muslims in Britain which will be particularly useful for undergraduate teaching.' Tariq Modood, University of Bristol 'This is a brilliant synthesis which will become a standard text for both scholars and students alike. Dr Gilliat-Ray has put us all in her debt.' Ian Richard Netton, University of Exeter 'Muslims in Britain will be invaluable to anybody looking seriously to understand the history, social make-up, institutions, and politics of the Muslim communities in Britain. This book brings us closer to defining and understanding the richness of the British Muslim legacy, and is a vital step in helping us move away from the discourse of 'counter-terrorism' and 'preventing violent extremism'.' Saleem Kidwai, Muslim Council of Wales ' ... this ambitious work will prove an invaluable point of entry and textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses on various aspects of Islam and Muslims in Britain. Specialists and students alike will quarry from its exhaustive and up-to-date bibliography and excellent appendix ...' Philip Lewis, Bradford University 'Muslims in Britain is a welcome addition to the growing literature on the community in Britain ... the book will be beneficial to a specialist audience in addition to the general public, especially those whose work involves dealing with issues relevant to community and society in Britain.' Madawi Al-Rasheed

Format:Paperback
I bought this book along with a DVD. The book helped me undertand more about issues for British Muslims.
I am from Scotland, and this book is mostly based arond English experiances, so it should really of been called Muslims in England, which is why I have given it 4 stars, as a lot of the references described are different in a Scotish context
Has chapters on-
The roots of Islam
The devlopment of Muslim comunities
Middle Eastern Religious reform movements
South Asian religious reform movements
Profliling British Muslim Communuities
Reliious nurture and education
Religous leadershp
Mosques
Gender, religious dientity and youth
Engagement and enterprise
