Critical Muslim, the quarterly in-house journal of the Muslim Institute has launched its new website, to mark its 50th edition. The website is full of free articles and searchable listings of all the articles published in the journal.
Critical Muslim is a quarterly magazine of ideas and issues showcasing ground breaking thinking on Islam and what it means to be a Muslim in a rapidly changing, interconnected world. It is published by Hurst and Co., a highly respected publisher of books on Islam and the Muslim World, as a paperback book; and co-published by Oxford University Press (Pakistan), Westland Books (India), and distributed in the United States by Oxford University Press (USA).
The first issue The Arabs Are Alive was published in the winter of 2012 as a response to the Arab Spring and has been published four times a year ever since.
Each issue is devoted to a single theme, which also serves as the title of the individual book. Critical Muslim is devoted to examining issues within Islam and Muslim societies, providing a Muslim perspective on the great debates of contemporary times, and promoting dialogue, cooperation and collaboration between 'Islam' and other cultures, including 'the West'. We aim to be innovative, thought provoking and forward looking, a space for debate between Muslims, between Muslims and others, on religious, social, cultural and political issues concerning the Muslim world and Muslims in the world.
In response to the overthrow of the Bangladeshi government CM has made available a long read article by Hassan Mahamdallie on Dhaka and the politics of the country. Visit the website for this and much more.
You can also subscribe to Critical Muslim via the site. All fellows of the Muslim Institute get a free copy of each new issue of CM worth £60 a year.
