During my first months in England, I needed my husband as a translator to see my GP! My ambition then was to accomplish a PhD; it was a far-fetched dream but was achievable in my heart! 15 years later, I secured a full PhD studentship with stipend from the Uni of Nottingham! Done

I mean racism is racism but Credlin has form when it comes to how egregious her claims are. Remember when she claimed a group of Muslim male students who don’t shake hands with women ‘may become radicalised’?

We could begin by demanding racist cartoonists like Spooner are not publicly lauded. Apparently he has works in the National Gallery of Australia, VIC, VIC State Library etc. In this country, racism builds careers. Which public institutions are platforming & amplifying him?

Great informative thread on non-'Uthmanic masahif (codices) of the Qur'an.
So now we've talked about the establishment of the canon of Quranic recitation, some questions arose about pre-Uthmanic recitations and written forms of the Quran arose. What were they like, how can we know? THREAD:

I agree, I missed the comments which may have said this, but it is possible to write as an academic theologian (after all, Christians do it all the time) or academic believer, and I think it's good to build it up as an "acceptable" approach for Islam also

"As I write, I try to remember when the word racism ceased to be the term which best expressed for me exploitation of black people and other people of color in this society and when I began to understand that the most useful term was white supremacy". (hooks, 1989, p. 112)
