America's Other Muslims: Imam W.D. Mohammed, Islamic Reform, and
the Making of American Islam explores the oldest and perhaps the
most important Muslim community in America, whose story has
received little attention in the contemporary context. Muhammad
Fraser-Rahim explores American Muslim Revivalist, Imam W.D.
Mohammed (1933-2008) and his contribution to the intellectual,
spiritual, and philosophical thought of American Muslims as well as
the contribution of Islamic thought by indigenous American Muslims.
The book details the intersection of the Africana experience and
its encounter with race, religion, and Islamic reform. Fraser-Rahim
spotlights the emergence of an American school of Islamic thought,
which created and established by the son of the leader of the
former Nation of Islam leader. Imam W.D. Mohammed rejected his
father's teachings and embraced normative Islam on his own terms
while balancing classical Islam and his lived experience of Islam
in the diaspora. Likewise his interpretations of Islam were not
only American - they were also modern and responded to global
trends in Islamic thought. His interpretations of Blackness were
not only American, but also diasporic and pan-African.
