- Summary:
- "Wales is a vibrant multicultural and multireligious nation, home to one of the oldest Muslim communities in Britain, but the depth of the historic connections between Islam and Wales is less well known. In Muslim Wales Abdul-Azim Ahmed explores the stories of nine places which trace this shared history across centuries. The people, artefacts and buildings associated with each site, tell a story of cross-cultural and -linguistic influence, shared journeys and a history impacted by empire and colonialism. Fascinating, vital and beautifully illustrated, Muslim Wales furthers our understanding of this evolving story and how it informs our sense of identity and belonging. It will appeal to casual readers and those interested in learning about this topic in more depth."-- back cover.
