Description

Jihad Beyond Islam by Gabriele Marranci offers a nuanced and sophisticated anthropological understanding of Muslims' lives. This timely book explores how jihad manifests itself in everyday Muslim experiences, and the impact of recent events on its meaning.

By examining the current crisis of identity among ordinary Muslims, Marranci sheds light on why some speak of jihad, and what circumstances lead to this concept being used. A thought-provoking exploration of a complex topic, this book provides a fresh perspective on a highly charged word.

Through its insightful analysis, Jihad Beyond Islam challenges common misconceptions about jihad and its relationship with terrorism. This is a valuable contribution to our understanding of Muslim experiences and the complexities of modern identity.
