Kommentar
Even as a discourse of Muslim 'backwardness' emerged in South Asia by the late 19th century gradually gaining much currency, several Muslim thinkers endeavoured to engage with issues of social reforms and community development, often leading to reconceptualization(s) of the role of religion and religious sensibilities in social reconstruction. A conjunction of multiple and shifting self-perceptions of the individual and community, and of socio-religious reforms, social activism and social service defined this process.
This course will enquire into this historical process in 19th and 20th century South Asia, with focus on some key thinkers and social reform and revivalist movements with contested claims of Islamicity, some of which reflected in part wider transnational and global trends of the times. Schließen
