Young Muslims, Pedagogy and Islam

For most young people religion and religiosity is something latent or private activated by private events or the passing of years. For Muslim young people it can be activated by an incessant Islamaphobic discourse that requires fundamental questions of relationships and belonging to be addressed in the public gaze whilst being positioned as representatives and 'explainers' of their religion and their communities. Written by a leading practitioner and academic in the field of youth and community work this multidisciplinary book reflects the way theoretical, the social and the religious impacts on the lives of Muslim young people.

Muhammad Khan established the Muslim Youth Work Foundation (www.mywf.org.uk) and is a Tutor in Youth and Community Work, Ruskin College Oxford.
