Female Missionaries and Women's Participation in Southern Thailand's Chapter of the Tablighi Jama'at
Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Book chapter › Research › peer-review
I discuss the participation in, and support for, what is the largest global Islamic missionary movement in the world today, the Tablighi Jama'at. I argue that the Tablighi Jama'at not only provides opportunities for men, but also for women who join the Mastura Jama'at.
