This timely book offers incisive and comprehensive analysis of faith as a cornerstone of identity.
With the rapid transformation within the Muslim community over the last few decades, many young people are now finding it difficult to navigate between the demands of their religion on one side and social pressure on the other. Working with them and addressing the issues pertinent to their daily life is challenging, to say the least.
This book is the outcome of Dr Bari's long-term involvement with the young Muslims of London through his voluntary and professional work. This has put him on a continuous learning curve in assessing his personal situation as well. The foremost issue facing a young Muslim is, of course, one of "identity", which the author has tried to address through the lens of Islamic principles.
Muhammad Abdul Bari is a Bangladeshi-born British physicist, writer, teacher, community leader and the current secretary of Muslim Aid. He is a former chairman of the East London Mosque and former secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain.
