Journal of the Contemporary Study of Islam was launched in 2019 to promote and disseminate research related to Islam and Muslims in the contemporary world.
During my first months in England, I needed my husband as a translator to see my GP! My ambition then was to accomplish a PhD; it was a far-fetched dream but was achievable in my heart! 15 years later, I secured a full PhD studentship with stipend from the Uni of Nottingham! Done
