Paperback. Zustand: Good. In a 1960s convent. Kristen, a first-year nun, and her teacher, Sister Inez, stumble over a dead body in the basement of the motherhouse late one night. The woman is dressed like a nun, but no one knows her. The police are called and begin their investigation, but Sister Inez, ever the busybody, insists that she and Kristen will solve the murder. Complicating everything is Kristen's attraction to the young detective assigned to the case. Their investigation is harmless enough until Kristen gets a threatening letter from the murderer telling her to stop and she begins to worry for her life. Was it another nun in the motherhouse who committed the crime? Will they solve the murder? Will her infatuation for the detective ruin her vocation? Kristen will solve three cases in this first book of the Who Nun It? Mystery Series.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. In this ground-breaking study, sherali tareen offers the most comprehensive account of the longest running dispute in modern Islam: the barelvī deobandī polemic. The barely and deobandī groups are two normative orientations with beginnings in colonial South Asia two hundred years ago, yet their differences haunt the religious sensibilities of South Asian Muslims today. Tareen challenges those who see intra-muslim contest through the prism of liberal-secular binaries like legal/mystical, moderate/extremist, and reformist/traditionalist. He argues that the barelvī deobandī polemic was animated by competing political theologies contrasting visions of the normative relationship between divine sovereignty, prophetic charisma, and the practice of everyday life. Based on a close reading of unexplored print and manuscript sources in Arabic, Persian, and Urdu, his book intervenes in Islamic studies, South Asian studies, and political theology. . Beautifully written in a language accessible for students and colleagues. If you can only read three books on Islam in South Asia, defending muḥammad in modernity needs to be one of them. margrit pernau, Max Planck Institute no book offers a richer, more illuminating guide to the origins and the complex theological relationship of the barely and the deobandi orientations.
