Virtually Islamic: computer-mediated communication and cyber Islamic environments

Abstract

Virtually Islamic explores the role of the Internet in shaping perceptions and expressions of Islam in the digital age. Authored by Gary R. Bunt, this book investigates how Islamic content is represented online and its impact on both Muslim and non-Muslim audiences. It addresses the diversity of Islamic expressions in cyberspace, the political implications of online Islamic discourse, and the concept of a 'digital minbar' where Islamic authority and obligations are discussed. The book targets students, scholars, and individuals interested in contemporary religious studies, offering insights into the intersection of religion, technology, and society
