Amid increasing political turmoil and economic precarity, Muslim men around the world are enacting nurturing roles as husbands, sons, fathers, and community members, thereby challenging broader systems of patriarchy and oppression. By focusing on the ways in which Muslim men care for those they love, this volume challenges stereotypes and showcases Muslim men’s humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“\u003c\/em\u003eReconceiving Muslim Men \u003cem\u003emakes a welcome addition to the growing body of literature on Muslim men, an excellent companion volume to the more theoretical discussions of masculinity, which largely focus on Western contexts, and a useful reminder of the need to differentiate between discourse and practice in exploring gender issues more broadly.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• JRAI (Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“…a significant, highly interesting, and at times heartbreaking book… One of this book’s many strengths is that it foregrounds the ways in which Muslim men are normal.
