520 |a Julie Macfarlane explores how North American Muslim communities manage marriage and divorce processes. She draws from interviews with 212 Muslims in the United States and Canada, including imams, religious scholars, community leaders, social workers, and divorced men and women. Macfarlane uncovers a dedication to Islamic marriage and divorce practices across ethnic origins, class, and educational backgrounds and focuses on individual interpretations and applications of shari'a law shaped by encounters with Western culture. Her interviews provide detailed accounts of the complexity of ethnic religious identity, specifically for Muslims in a post-9/11 society shaped by fear of Islamic beliefs and practices. The book is important in several ways.
