Chinese Muslims and the Global Ummah

- Islamic Revival and Ethnic Identity Among the Hui of Qinghai Province

Bag om Chinese Muslims and the Global Ummah

This book explores how Muslim revivalists in Chinäs Qinghai Province employ individual agency to reconcile transnational notions of religious orthodoxy with the materialist rationalism of atheist China. Based on a year immersed in one of Chinäs most concentrated and conservative urban Muslim communities in Xining, the book puts individuals¿ struggles to navigate theological controversies in the contexts of global Islamic revival and Chinese modernization. By doing so, it reveals how attempts to revive the original essence of Islam can empower individuals to form peaceful and productive articulations with secular societies.
