Linking the group's \u003cbr\u003e\nnarratives to the process of Islamisation in Pakistan and divergent \u003cbr\u003e\nviews on the country's Islamic identity, it is the first systematic \u003cbr\u003e\nanalysis of how the organisation, globally reviled as the perpetrator of\u003cbr\u003e\n the 2008 Mumbai Bombings, has developed its conception of da'wah \u003cbr\u003e\n(proselytising) and jihad in response to regional and global \u003cbr\u003e\ndevelopments. Samina Yasmeen makes extensive use of Urdu materials \u003cbr\u003e\n(pamphlets, books, ephemera) by Markaz Da'wah wal Irshad, the parent \u003cbr\u003e\norganisation of LeT, to examine the 'insider's vision' of the dominant \u003cbr\u003e\nthreats to Pakistan and the Muslim ummah, as well as strategies for \u003cbr\u003e\ncountering these threats. She argues that while adopting an oppositional\u003cbr\u003e\n narrative vis-à-vis India and the West, LeT has increasingly turned its\u003cbr\u003e\n attention to da'wah narratives within Pakistan engaging with broader \u003cbr\u003e\nspectrums of society. Women have increasingly been assigned significant \u003cbr\u003e\nagency in this narrative, and JuD's activism in education and social \u003cbr\u003e\nwelfare has helped it acquire social capital. This, in turn, prompts a \u003cbr\u003e\nre-imagining of the movement's relationship with the Pakistani military.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Samina Yasmeen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44214274785340,"sku":"9781849047104","price":8996.25,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/7706\/7836\/files\/Jihad-and-Dawah-Evolving-Narratives-of-Lashkar-e-Taiba-and-Jamat-ud-Dawah.jpg?v=1776722374","url":"https:\/\/libertybooksstore.myshopify.com\/products\/jihad-and-dawah-evolving-narratives-of-lashkar-e-taiba-and-jamat-ud-dawah","provider":"LibertyBooksStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
