One of the delights of working Islam UK Centre is meeting Jameel PhD scholars developing as academics and carrying out new social research on Muslims in Britain. We have 3 scholarships to award for the coming autumn: please apply and share. Deadline 3 July cardiff.ac.uk/centre-for-the…
Please @RobinMillarMP as my MP, intervene with Michael Gove to prevent the closure of the Inter Faith Network. In a violent world we need orgs actively building communication & consensus. The govt’s position is wholly unjustifiable & deeply questionable. interfaith.org.uk/news/inter-fai…
I caught Nigel Farage MP interviewed by Mishal Husain on #R4Today He had plenty to say about Muslims in Britain that I and my colleagues at Islam UK Centre could address with our research. But I want to pick up the point about Muslims serving in the world wars of last century. 1/7
Who are we? As our director and new The British Academy fellow Professor Sophie Gilliat-Ray notes, through our partnerships our research is not only about, but also for, #MuslimsinBritain. Cardiff Uni History, Archaeology and Religion
For example, collaborative research by Sophie Gilliat-Ray, Mansur Ali and Professor Stephen Pattison on #MuslimChaplaincy helped British Muslim women, in particular, to think about the possibility of taking up professional religious work in new ways.
"This anthology re-centres women as authors of their own stories — writers, travellers, and activists who were transformative figures in their time." Dr Sadek Hamid The New Arab newarab.com/features/musli…
