As a minority religion in a predominantly Christian country,
America's Muslims face many difficulties - lack of understanding of
their cultural traditions by the majority of their fellow citizens,
threats to their civil liberties based on their beliefs and
ethnicity, and challenges to retaining a Muslim identity within
their community. Muslims in the United States clarifies this
complex situation by explaining for a non-Muslim audience the basic
teachings and practices of Islam, the history of Islam in the
United States, and a discussion of how and where Muslims live in
this country. The volume concludes with a discussion of the
problems that Muslims have adjusting to American culture, and a
description from the Muslim perspective of 9/11 and its aftermath.
Muslims in the United States provides an objective overview of what
it's like to live as a Muslim in the United States: BLIncludes a
history of Islam in America and a summary of what is known about
the diversity of the Muslim population BLExamines the centrality of
faith for the Muslims of the United States BLAnalyzes the
importance of women and the family BLProbes the troubles that
