From Monologue to Dialogue: Wahhabi Daʿwa and Reassessment of the Other after 9/11

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

This chapter examines the official Wahhabi discourse on the dissemination of Islam (daʿwa) after 9/11, with special emphasis on the doctrinal developments and changes in approaching the “Other” (Muslim and non-​Muslim), in general, and on the preaching of Islam, in particular. Note that over the past four decades, and as oil prices skyrocketed, Wahhabi daʿwa has expanded to become globalized. Islamic centers, Muslim charities, mosques, schools, social-​ welfare projects, and prep schools for imams were all established to bolster this trend.
