This has led to misrepresentations of pre-colonial Muslim norms and undue emphasis on colonial reforms alone when charting the course to post-coloniality. This book presents and challenges staple perspectives with a comprehensive reinterpretation of doctrinal sources, literary expressions and colonial records spanning the period from the reign of the 'Great Mughals' to end of the 'British Raj' (1526-1947). The result is an alternative vision of this transformative period in South Asian history, and an original paradigm of Islamic doctrine and Muslim practice applicable more broadly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgements                                                                                                      Translation and Transliteration Note\t\t Maps                                                                                                                           Chronology                                                                                                                 Introduction\t\t\t\t  Part I—Foundations: Islam and the Mughals  Chapter One: The Categories of Doctrinal Islam Chapter Two: Indicism, Intoxication and Sobriety among the ‘Great Mughals’\t\t\t \t Part II—Transformations: Islam and Colonialism  Chapter Three: Codification and a ‘New’ Sober Path\t\t\t\t Chapter Four: Anglicisation and the ‘Old Islam’\t Chapter Five: Objectification and a ‘New’ Intoxicated Way\t\t\t Chapter Six: Nationalism and the ‘New Islam’\t  Bibliography\t\t\t\t Glossary\t\t\t\t\t Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210615185751,"sku":"9789004177581","price":150.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/reconsidering-islam-in-a-south-asian-context-9789004177581","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
