This highly thought-provoking book, packed with incisive observations and analyses on a wide range of issues facing British Muslims, offers concise yet extensive commentary on the cultural and intellectual contentions in contextualising Islam in the UK. As of 2018, roughly 50% of the UKs Muslim population was born in the UK. With this shift comes, on one hand, the loss of old-ways of experiencing the world and navigating ones place within it, and on the other hand it comes with the excitement and opportunity to make new culture. The questions now facing British Muslims are: From where can British Muslims get their inspiration? and What should be the nature of this new culture? These questions are becoming ever more important as the UKs Muslim population is expected to grow from 5% to 10% by 2050. Thus, the authors clearly presented analysis provides critical and constructive insights for readers wanting to understand how to make faith more meaningful and relevant, going from a largely immigrant ethnocentric religion and identity politics to one formed on intelligent and confident theocentric understanding. Essential reading for anyone interested in Islam and British Muslims, including policymakers, community leaders, philanthropists and activists as well as scholars and students of Islamic studies, sociology, cultural studies, politics, philosophy and identity. This is a most refreshing and indispensable overview for anyone interested in the area.CommendationsDr Khan rejects the shallow identity politics which assume that British Muslims must either assimilate to western secular norms or react fanatically against them.
