'This book presents valuable insight into the lived experiences of Muslim women in Australia, highlighting the ways they organise their identities and obligations within the broader community while ‘staying true to their faith’ (2018: xiv). Most importantly, the book emphasises the fact that ‘Islam is not practised in a vacuum’ (2018: xv–xvi), along with the need to recognise that the Muslim community in Australia is not homogenous — that there are complexities that arise from the ethnic, cultural and geographic diversity present within communities (2018: 205).' (Introduction)
