Abstract
This conceptual pair, Public Islam and Muslim Publics, forms the cornerstones of this collection of case studies in Islam in Africa. Public Islam refers … to the highly diverse invocations of Islam as ideas and practices that religious scholars, self-ascribed religious authorities, secular intellectuals, Sufi orders, mothers, students, workers, engineers, and many others make to civic debate and public life. In this “public” capacity, “Islam” makes a difference in configuring the politics and social life of large parts of the globe, and not just for self-ascribed religious authorities.
