Extract

The 11 September 2001 attacks and subsequent events brought not only almost daily coverage of Islam in newspapers and magazines throughout the world but also a continuous flow of scholarly books and articles about Islam in the world. One of the main issues, not surprisingly, is the position of Muslims in the United States and Europe. Muslims in the West, by Aldeed Abu-Sahlieh, fits within this category. Aldeed Abu-Sahlieh, a scholar of Islamic law based at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland, analyzes the position of Muslims in Swiss society (numbering a little more than 150,000 in a total Swiss population of almost 7 million).
