Communalizing Covid-19: Scapegoating Muslims through Tablighi Jamaat
This study critically examines the enduring mistrust and skepticism directed at minority communities through the lens of nation-state theory. It posits that nation-states routinely construct discourses that attribute blame to minority groups, thereby diverting attention from their own administrative responsibilities and shortcomings. The investigation employs a content analysis methodology, drawing on secondary sources including daily newspapers,…
Exploring Cultural Embeddedness of Kashmiri Muslims: The Influence of the Rishi Movement
This article explores three conversion theories regarding Islam's spread in Kashmir, with two focusing on the state's role. It argues that while state support for Islam is acknowledged, it alone does not explain mass conversions. It delves into the social liberation theory's impact, suggesting that Islam's appeal in Kashmir lies in its lack of ritual inequality, transforming various inequalities in the region. The study investigates the role of t…
Trust and Social Capital in the Old City of Hyderabad: A Study of Self-Help Groups of Women, India
Why do people trust each other? Do people form groups through mutual trust or self-interest?

Indian nationalists considered the Khilafat Movement of 1919–1924 in India as an anti-colonial movement by the Indian Muslims. Most studies on the Khilafat movement perceive it as a pan-Islamic supranational phenomenon against the British hostility toward the Sultan of Turkey. This movement provided a platform for Indian Muslim leaders, such as Abul Kalam Azad, who represented Muslim politics in post-independence India. This paper aims to unravel…

The research seeks to identify to what extent this kind of historical memory translates into…
In Search of Reasons for the Comparatively Higher Fertility among Muslim Women in Delhi, India: Postulating a Cultural Hypothesis
Three hypotheses dominate the literature on fertility and religion, viz., “particular theological hypothesis” which argues that religious doctrines and ideologies influence contraceptive use and fertility behaviour of different religious groups; “characteristics hypothesis” which argues that differentials in fertility and contraceptive use between majority and minority religious groups are due to socio-economic and demographic factors; and “minor…
