28. Perilous Intimacies : Debating Hindu Muslim Friendship
<p>Introduction:</p> <p> <strong>Welcome to another immersive episode of Dariyaa, your go-to podcast for deep dives into the captivating world of politics, culture, society, and policy.</strong></p> <p><strong>In this episode, Srushti and Omer, Hosts of Dariyaa are in conversation with, Dr. SherAli Tareen, Associate Professor of Religious Studies at Franklin and Marshall College, discussing his groundbreaking new book on the complex intra-Muslim debates surrounding Hindu-Muslim friendship and political theology in South Asia during the 18th to 20th centuries.</strong></p> <p><strong>Dr. Tareen argues that the loss of Muslim political sovereignty under colonialism led to a heightened emphasis on embodied practices and "markers of distinction" as a means of asserting Muslim identity and supremacy. He explores how Muslim scholars of diverse ideological persuasions engaged with the Islamic legal tradition and colonial modernity to articulate competing visions of Islam and inter-religious relations.</strong></p> <p><strong>Through a close reading of fascinating historical figures and texts, Dr. Tareen reveals the nuanced logics and internal contestations that shaped Muslim thought during this transformative period. He challenges simplistic binaries of "good" and "bad" Muslims, calling for a deeper, more empathetic engagement with voices that defy modern liberal categories.</strong></p> <p><strong>At a time of rising Islamophobia and Hindu nationalism in South Asia, Dr. Tareen shows how these historical debates over the boundaries of friendship and cultural exchange continue to resonate powerfully with contemporary controversies, from cow vigilantism to the Citizenship Amendment Act.</strong></p> <p><strong>For anyone seeking a more nuanced understanding of the role of Islam in South Asian history and politics, this podcast offers a wealth of insights and provocations. Join us for a stimulating exploration of sovereignty, translation, tradition, and the unexpected afterlives of colonial-era Muslim thought.</strong></p> <p>Engage with Us: We invite you to engage with us on social media, share your thoughts and experiences, and join the conversation.

27. Rebellious Wives and Neglectful Husbands - Dr. Hadia Mubarak
<p>Introduction: Welcome to another immersive episode of Dariyaa, your go-to podcast for deep dives into the captivating world of politics, culture, society, and policy. I</p> <p>In this episode with Dr. Hadia Mubarak, we discuss her book, 'Rebellious Wives, Neglectful Husbands: Controversies in Modern Quranic Commentaries'. In this book, she examines how colonialism, nationalism, and modernization catalyzed new perspectives on women in the Qur'an. Dr. Mubarak focuses on Tafsīr al-Manār, Fī Zilāl al-Qur'an, and al-Tahrīr wa'l-Tanwīr, placing them in dialogue with medieval commentaries spanning from the ninth to the fourteenth centuries. This comparative analysis encompasses verses addressing neglectful husbands (4:128), rebellious wives (4:34), polygyny (4:3), and divorce (2:228).</p> <p>Contrary to viewing the exegetical tradition as uniformly patriarchal, Dr. Mubarak's work reveals a nuanced and evolving tradition with diverse interpretations of women and gender in the Qur'an. Rather than dichotomizing the Qur'an as egalitarian and the exegetical tradition as patriarchal, she advocates for a critical engagement with tafsīr studies in understanding women and gender in Islam.</p> <p>Dr. Hadia Mubarak is an Assistant Professor of Religion at Queens University of Charlotte, where she teaches courses on Islam, comparative scriptures, women and gender in the Muslim world, the history of Islam in America, and religious representation in popular culture. Some of her other publications include, “Gender and Qurʾanic Exegesis” in The Routledge Handbook of Islam and Gender, ed. Justine Howe (Brill, 2020); “Change Through Continuity: A Case Study of Q. 4:34 in Ibn ʿĀshūr’s Al-Taḥrīr wa-l-Tanwīr” (Journal of Qurʾanic Studies 20.1 February 2018); and “Breaking the Interpretive Monopoly: A Re-Examination of Verse 4:34” (Hawwa 2.3).</p> <p>Engage with Us: We invite you to engage with us on social media, share your thoughts and experiences, and join the conversation.

26. Is there "too much Islam in the anthropology of Islam"?
<p>Introduction: Welcome to another immersive episode of Dariyaa, your go-to podcast for deep dives into the captivating world of politics, culture, society, and policy. </p> <p>The anthropologist Samuli Schielke suggests that scholarship on the anthropology of Islam has put too much emphasis on Islam itself. He warns against the risk of essentialism, where one aspect of a Muslim's life, such as moments of piety, are portrayed as representative of their entire experience. Schielke argues that for most individuals, moral subjectivities are marked by ambiguity and a range of reference points rather than being neatly coherent.</p> <p>He argues that while the ‘piety turn’ has guided numerous innovative studies, it seems to overlook crucial inquiries concerning everyday religious and moral practices, particularly the ambiguity, inconsistencies, and fluidity inherent in people's lives that do not neatly fit into a single tradition.</p> <p>In this conversation, we speak to Dr. Sertac Sehlikoglu to understand as to where her scholarship is situated within this debate and the contribution it makes to the existing arguments. Dr. Sehlikoglu is Principal Research Fellow at the Institute for Global Prosperity at University College London. She is a social anthropologist specialising in subjectivity, gender, and sexuality in the Middle East. Her work often focuses on the intangible aspects of human subjectivity that enable humans to change and transform social life.</p> <p>Engage with Us: We invite you to engage with us on social media, share your thoughts and experiences, and join the conversation.
