Islam is the religion of the majority of Arab citizens in Israel
and since the late 1970s has become an important factor in their
political and socio-cultural identity. This leads to an increasing
number of Muslims in Israel who define their identity first and
foremost in relation to their religious affiliation. By examining
this evolving religious identity during the past four decades and
its impact on the religious and socio-cultural aspects of Muslim
life in Israel, Muhammad Al-Atawneh and Nohad Ali explore the local
nature of Islam. They find that Muslims in Israel seem to rely
heavily on the prominent Islamic authorities in the region, perhaps
more so than minority Muslims elsewhere. This stems, inter alia,
from the fact that Muslims in Israel are the only minority that
lives in a land they consider to be holy and see themselves as a
natural.
