World-Making from the 'Margins': Muslim Global Actors from South Asia
Dietrich Reetz
Comments
In the times of Globalization, translocal and transnational Muslim networks and institutions play an increasingly independent role that goes much beyond diaspora religious activism by giving meaning to their acts of global interventions through 'world-making'. From an international perspective, the roots of global Islam are assumed to lie primarily in the Arabian Peninsula. Yet more than 80 percent of Muslims live in Asia. Outside the Arabian Peninsula Muslim groups from South Asia are unique in their ability to create spheres and networks of influence outside their home region and across the globe. This relates to groups of all doctrines and persuasions, from the Deobandis, to Barelwis, to Ahl-i Hadith, Jamaat-i Islami and the dissenting sects of the Ahmadiyya, or the Ismailis and even to secularizing Muslim discourses from the region. close
