Roundtable Session In-person November Annual Meeting 2025

Envisioning the Future of Constructive Muslim Work

Abstract for Online Program Book (maximum 150 words)

For the fifth and final year of the Constructive Muslim Thought and Engaged Scholarship Seminar, this roundtable session invites voices from across this burgeoning field to weight in on what the future of constructive Muslim scholarship might look like. The task at hand is one of envisioning. Drawing upon their respective areas of expertise as well as experiences in community and the Academy, each discussant has been asked to respond to the following prompts in order to foster a broader conversation with seminar attendees: Taking into account what has come before and what is unfolding presently, where do you believe constructive Muslim work ought to go and grown next? What questions or challenges still need answering? What do we need to develop? What needs overcoming or transforming? What might this field look like in ten or twenty years?
