| Description: | Select Guide Rating Since the Second World War, there has been a significant migration of Muslims to countries in the Western world. Muslims in non-Muslim Lands traces the process by which these migrants arrived in Western Europe-in particular Britain-and explains how the community developed its faith identity through three particular stances: assimilation, isolation and integration. The findings argue that the assumption that Islam causes Muslims to isolate from the indigenous population and form ''a state within a state'' is false, and that Islamic law actually gives Muslims confidence and the ability to integrate within the wider society. |
