Description

'Confusing Islam with violence is now commonplace. No book to my knowledge has thus far tackled this problem head on. In fact, on the contrary, many students of Islam as well as media commentators have succumbed to treating Islam uncritically, i.e. as a 'label' ' for violence, practically and theoretically. Here lies the significance of A Divine Duty: it bucks this trend coherently, convincingly, and clearly. At a moment when many self-anointed experts are flooding the world's libraries with books that take Islam's link with violence as a given, A Divine Duty stands out as a strong critique of this discourse. Its arguments are serious and executed in a scholarly manner. It is a piece of work that must be read by all those interested in the relationship between Islam and violence... contextualises violence in a way that shows what Muslims do in the name of Islam is not always Islamic. Thus she challenges our surrender to stereotypes about Islam's relationship with violence as facts that require no defence or corroboration.' (Dr. Larbi Sadiki, University of Exeter) 'The questions raised in A Divine Duty - Is Islam intrinsically violent? Why have Muslim embraced violence and terrorism in the modern age? What motivates Muslims who engage in terrorism? - need urgent attention, and the author has provided us with a timely and much-needed analysis. There are several original aspects to this book: the string of interviews with relevant actors in Palestine and Lebanon; the discussion of state violence against women; and the provision of a wider context for religious violence.' (Ziauddin Sardar author of Why do People Hate American)
