This ethnographic study is the first in depth study of the literacy practices associated with the religion of Islam as they are shaped, lived and experienced within a typical Muslim community in the United Kingdom. It seeks to counterbalance prevailing views on such practices which have often been misrepresented and misunderstood.

This book examines the wide range of multilingual devotional performances engaged in by young Muslims in the UK today. It evaluates the contemporary mosque school in the UK and contrasts this with practices from the past and with prevailing discourses (both political and other) which suggest that such institutions are problematic.
