We're made from clay but also from a spirit that is not of this world. Negotiations between the two are always in session. Meanwhile, you may find here some reviews, commentary, translations, links to various articles, excerpted quotes, exegesis, and anything else that has a chance to edify, inspire, remind, or kindle. Thanks for dropping by.

Born and raised in Chicago and its environs, Ibrahim Abusharif, PhD, is a professor in the journalism and strategic communication program at Northwestern University in Qatar. His research interests include the intersection of media and culture; digital media and religious authority; literary journalism; media in the Arab world; and religion and media. He is also a journalist and a writer of non-fiction and fiction. His articles have appeared in numerous newspapers and magazines, both print and online. He has also worked closely on translation projects of the Quran. He has a masters in journalism and doctorate in religious and Islamic studies. And he finds it very interesting to write about himself in the third person like this. It's possible he'll revise this introduction and be more personable. But "not now!" he says.

congrats on the nomination
I'm voting for you, so that you can get one of those nifty "Brass Crescent" icon thingies for your webpage.
I could always copy and paste it here. Hmm. I think I'll do that anyway or one of the Oscars.
You deserve it, Brother :) I love your writing.
Ya Haqq!
Great writing deserves recognition.
Thanks, Umm Farouq, for your generous comment. Like I said in response to your comment below on the plagiarism thing, I enjoy reading your blog. Salams to all the Ammanites.
