Abstract A number of black Muslims have joined the Barelwi, locally called “Sunni”, networks in South Africa and it is their experiences of race that we wish to examine in this essay. We shall analyze experiences relating to race among three Black “Sunni” (Barelwi) Muslims in South Africa. Given South Africa's tumultuous apartheid past, race continues to play a determinative role in personal, social and political relationships in the country. In exploring the question of race in the Sunni environment, we are guided by the work of Talal Asad. For Asad, following Wittgenstein, it is important to appreciate a particular form of life (Sunniyat in South Africa in this case) and then structure one's questions of race in the light of that appreciation. Hence, we find that the answers proposed by our interviewees to combat racism proceed not so much from the well-known “political” solutions, but from a deeper existential and spiritual understanding of reality.

Abstract Despite developments of equal legislation and institutional interventions, Muslims remain disadvantaged in employment outcomes in developed countries’ labour markets. Most studies report high unemployment and low participation rates of Muslims, particularly Muslim women in Western countries, due to their ethnic and religious backgrounds. However, their disadvantage in employment income is still underexplored. Based on intersectionality theory and using the 2011 Canadian National Household Survey (NHS), this study examines how gender, religious affiliation, and visible minority status are associated with employment income. Specifically, this paper tests the gender income gap among employees with different religious and visible minority background in the Canadian labour market. The findings reveal significant income inequalities across gender, religious affiliation, and visible minority status, even after controlling for a variety of individual characteristics and human capital. Overall, women, non-whites, and Muslims earn significantly less than men, whites, and Non-Muslim employees, respectively. Interaction analyses show that the employment gender income gap is lower among Muslim and non-white employees than non-Muslim and white groups.

Abstract Malaysia has been described as a country which successfully implements a “moderate” Islam. However, sentiments amongst Malaysians, particularly on social media reveal tensions regarding racial and religious matters which has intensified amidst the changing political landscape of the nation. Islamization remains a controversial issue as reflected in the public’s mixed reaction to the government’s unofficial Islamization policy. This paper discusses the representation of Islamization by Malaysia’s popular alternative media via in-depth interviews with experts in related fields. The findings indicate that most informants perceived that media reporting of Islamization is framed negatively. This is aggravated by the media’s usage of strong language, negative generalizations, inappropriate pictures and general lack of sensitivity to racial and religious issues. Implications of these findings are discussed.

Abstract After the 9/11 attacks, Muslim Americans have witnessed an unprecedented civil rights’ crisis. This crisis has been fueled by many anti-Muslim activists, organizations, politicians, media and financial institutions, all of them appeared or grew particularly during the Obama administration to form an Islamophobia network. The network’s mission was to keep anti-Muslim sentiment alive in the American society. Yet, how was Islamophobia network structured? And what were its strategies and objectives? In order to answer these questions, this article follows a combination of descriptive and analytical approaches. While the descriptive approach is useful in presenting facts about the Islamophobia network during the Obama presidency, the analytical approach is valuable for exploring the network’s strategies and investigating its objectives. The findings demonstrate that the Islamophobia network has succeeded to make hostility against Muslims an omnipresent theme in the American society.

Abstract Australian and other Western survey research on intergroup contact, commonly referred to as “social distance”, has generally focused on negative attitudes and emotions as measures of prejudice. The current research, by contrast, investigates the level of social contact mainstream (non-Muslim) students in six Australian universities favor towards Muslims, as compared with other ethnicities. Three measures were used to test this proposition: intermarriage, friendship, and neighborhood. The findings revealed that acceptance of other ethnicities/religions as opposed to Muslims was higher than that of their parents. However, the gap narrows significantly between participants and their parents on the following two measures: “going out with” and “marrying” Muslims. Secondly, on the measures of “going out”, “being friends” with, and “marrying” someone from other ethnicities/religions, participants responses were more favorable than those conveyed towards Muslim groups. We suggest that future research is extended to measure other variables, namely gender, children of Muslim–Christian intermarriage, and the post effects of the shooting incidents in Christchurch on 15 March 2019.
