Muslims for hundreds of years have been involved in philanthropic
activities targeting poor and needy people through varied types of
'third sector' organizations (TSOs). Nonetheless, many people in
Muslim majority countries (MMCs), not having freedom from hunger,
face human security crises. Not much is known about the TSOs or
their human security provisions in MMCs. To fill this knowledge
gap, this Volume documents and analyses philanthropy and all types
of third sector organizations including the awqaf (Muslim
endowments) vis-a-vis human security in MMCs. The study is
comprehensive in treating the subject matter (analyzing the legal
environment, characteristics, extent and functioning of all forms
of the third sector and their human security performances) and in
geographic coverage (incorporating all forty-seven Muslim majority
countries in Africa and Asia). It is also innovative expounding TSO
density analysis, state support score (SSS) and a third-sector
capability measure (TCM) to study their interrelationships. It is
an essential unique reference book for students and scholars of the
third sector and human security, international organizations,
development agencies, donor governments, security experts and in
particular anybody with interests in Islam and MMCs.
