In Islamic Revival in British India , Metcalf explains the response of ulama to the colonial dominance and the collapse of Muslim political power. The Bengal Muslims studies the creation of the Bengali Muslim identity through an examination of the religious literature known as puthis and raises
doubts about the validity of any simple explanation. Legacy of a Divided Nation examines the origins of Muslim separatism under the British, the role of AMU and Jamia, and the state of Muslims in India after the Babri Masjid period
Taken together, these three volumes create a comprehensive picture of the evolution of identities of Muslims in the Indian subcontinent. With these varied approaches to the subject brought together in the form of the Omnibus, the readers will benefit from the range of perspectives it offers.
