Hearty congratulations to @m_khalayleh! A brilliant student who was a pleasure to supervise from start to finish. An outstanding thesis which sits at the interface of theology, philosophy & science (abstract below) & should attract a wide readership. Can't wait to see it in print

Really glad I learned (on here) about @RiyazTimol's recent article on Tariq Jameel. Thanks for the tag! I was able to add a last minute citation to this important article into a piece I have forthcoming on Muslim televangelists and Islamic Reform in modernity.
Low pay and high demands: the UK is facing a shortage of full-time imams reports @onlinehyphen

MUST READ: This important article shines a spotlight on the poor pay and working conditions of many British imams👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
It draws upon data from our major four-year Cardiff University @IslamUKCentre research project due to be published later this year: https://t.co/8x9KgBO7jc
Often working below the UK's minimum wage and sometimes without contracts, many British #imams are forced to take on side hustles to make ends meet.
👇🏼@Indlieb on the pay crisis among Muslim clergy.

@tuvefloden@MatthewJKuiper Thanks Tuve, I benefited from your dissertation on popular Arab preachers (Amr Khaled, Ahmad al-Shugairi and Tariq al-Suwaidan) which I cite and which helped me construct a contextual framework for the emergence of MTJ in the Pakistani public sphere...
