SUMMARY:Contextualizing Islam and its complex history
DESCRIPTION:This lecture aims to provide an informed view of Islam underlin
 ing how any attempt to understand such religious tradition needs to accoun
 t for the complex historical context and development of Islam\, distinguis
 hing between the premodern and the modern periods. Such a nuanced approach
  shall serve to debunk rampant misconceptions about Islam\, often reducing
  its geography\, society\, and political history into one monolith static 
 perception that cannot withstand any serious scrutiny. Building up on Shah
 ab Ahmed's perspective in What is Islam? The Importance of Being Islamic\,
  I shall showcase how the broader geography\, the heterogeneous identities
 \, and the complex political system of Islam throughout history tell a dif
 ferent story.\n\nAnyone interested in participating online can email joha
