Description
The internet and Islam: how technology is shaping Muslim experiences. This book explores the intersection of Islam and the internet, examining how information technology is influencing Muslims' approaches to their faith. It also considers how non-Muslims perceive Islam through online sources. The author looks at various aspects of digital communication, including multimedia applications, global networking, and the use of the Qur'an in its digital form. The book delves into how these digital platforms are being used to present diverse dialogues about Islam, often reaching wider audiences than traditional forms of communication. By examining these issues, the author sheds light on the complex ways in which technology is impacting our understanding of Islam and Muslim identities. Paperback, 189 pages.
