Cosmopolitan Identities in Mosques

Abstract

This chapter addresses some of the diverse ways in which British Muslim women engage with religious spheres. It becomes significant to examine the ways in which women make connection with sacred spaces as it can lend insights not only to women’s religious positioning but also the ways in which these spaces facilitate the formation of cosmopolitan attitudes and practices. Additionally, such a study enables us to understand how and to what extent these women may transform these spaces.
