Reviews

'This is a brilliant, erudite and welcome addition to the growing body of work on Islamic liberation theology and decoloniality. -- Farid Esack, Professor in the Study of Islam, University of Johannesburg


'Faith and Resistance is a brilliant, erudite and welcome addition to the growing body of work on Islamic Liberation Theology and Decoloniality. Marusek compels the reader to transcend the limitations and pretension of a 'universalistic' Western secular modernity to explore counter-hegemonic modes of resistance that center their values around Islam, faith and a commitment to justice' -- Farid Esack, Professor in the Study of Islam, University of Johannesburg
