| Summary: | This article is a reflection on my field observations and interactions with Egyptians students and scholars, both at the IDEO (Dominican Institute for Oriental Studies) and in our partner institutions in Cairo (two faculties in the University of al-Azhar, the Bureau of the Grand Imam, the World Association of al-Azhar Graduates, the Manuscript Institute of the Arab League and the American University). In the aftermath of the atrocities perpetrated by Daesh1 the self-called Islamic State established in late 2006, young educated Muslims students in Cairo who do not want to quit Islam altogether are now reaching out to religious minorities and turn to contemporary human sciences as a means to re-appropriate Islam. This double-sided tendency is clearly observable in Cairo since 2014. |
