The Charitable Crescent

More about the book

Since 9/11, Islamic charities have been in the firing line. Some portray the entire sector as a conduit for terrorist financing. This book offers a radical perspective on the issue of aid and Islamic finance. It explores the social and political history of zakat and waqf, and challenges Western assumptions about the nature of humanitarianism.
