Praxis Islamicus

This will be a weekly or fortnightly blog on my ideas, thoughts and musings.

Covering US foreign policy, economic realities, and civil liberties in American society.

Islamic governance x modern policy. Developing and sharing the Minaret Method for ethical decision making in policy and leadership.

Writing on the study and practice of Islām for the individual Muslim as well as Muslims and society.

Abdullah bin Hamid Ali is an associate professor of Islamic law and Prophetic Tradition at Zaytuna College in Berkeley, California (2007-present).

'Khawatir' is the plural form of the Arabic word 'khaatir' (thought or reflection). This blog is intended to be a collection of my edited thoughts, typically on Islamic spirituality and pastoral theology.

Discussions on far-ranging topics, often from the lens of the cumulative weight of nearly 1500 years of the Islamic intellectual tradition.
