Muslims in India Since 1947: Islamic Perspectives on Inter-Faith Relations (Royal Asiatic Society Books) 1st Edition, Kindle Edition
by Yoginder Sikand (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
Muslims in India today are responding to the challenge of religious pluralism in a variety of ways. This book explores the attempts being made by scholar-activists and Muslim organisations to develop new understandings of Islam to relate to people of other faiths and to the modern nation-state, and to deal with issues such as democracy and secularism. It examines how a common predicament, characterised by a sense of siege and the perception of being an oppressed minority, is producing new expressions of Islam, some of which seek to relate to non-Muslims in terms of confrontation, and others which call for dialogue, reconciliation and inter-faith harmony.
