Apparently, a conservative British think tank called “The Policy Report” issued a purportedly comprehensive study of British Masajid entitled “The Hijacking of British Islam” that argued that extremism […]

Within every single discussion on the democratization of the Muslim world is the assumed premise that the Muslim world has “failed” or is “failing” due to its ideological state. The concept of failure, underdevelopment, or whatever pejorative term one chooses to use, is a relative term that is contrasted with the “success” of the West […]
