Master of Arts in Contemporary Muslim Societies

The power of the growing interest in the Study of Contemporary Muslim Societies can hardly be exaggerated.  The need for new approaches that fuse a strong base of knowledge of (the often insufficiently studied) textual foundations, and contemporary manifestations of Muslim thought and practice are needed. In a post-Oriental world it is important to bridge the gap between classical approaches to the study of the Islamic world and the work that today's anthropologists, sociologists, economists, and political scientists, are undertaking on contemporary Muslim societies.  This program represents a genuine step in this direction.

 

From the Teachings of the Prophet

Of the good Islamic traits of a person is to leave what does not concern him.
