In light of this vast body of research, we believe it is essential to pause and critically reflect on mosque research itself. How is research on mosques influenced by political, societal, and disciplinary contexts? Who studies mosques and for what reasons? What theoretical and methodological approaches are used? And how is research on mosques complicit in constructing an image of Muslims and Islam in Europe? The contributions in this volume interrogate the epistemic foundations of a field long shaped by suspicion, security politics, and integration debates. They show how positionality, methodological choices, and infrastructural lenses (from architecture to governmental dispositifs) shape knowledge production about mosques, and trace transnational flows of religious education, governance, and identity. By conceptualizing mosques as relational spaces and researchers as active participants in the production of knowledge, this volume opens up new opportunities for reflexive mosque research.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: DE;\"\u003eRauf Ceylan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: DE;\"\u003e is Professor of Contemporary Islamic Studies at Osnabrück University.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: DE;\"\u003eSimon Freise\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: DE;\"\u003e, M.A., is research assistant and Ph.D. candidate in Contemporary Islamic Studies at Osnabrück University.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: DE; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMarvin Mücke-Choudhury\u003c\/strong\u003e, M.A., is research assistant and Ph.D. candidate in Contemporary Islamic Studies at Osnabrück University.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23 November 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Fachmedien Wiesbaden\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer VS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783658524258\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback \/ softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50547402113164,"sku":"9783658524258","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783658524258","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
