AVACGIS at Fall for the Book

Over the years, the AbuSulayman Center has regularly partnered with the Fall for the Book Festival—Northern Virginia’s premier annual celebration of books, literature, and storytelling. Through this collaboration we have enabled the work of numerous Islamic Studies scholars to reach a broader readership beyond traditional academic audiences. 

Hisham Aidi (Columbia University) - "Rebel Music: Race, Empire, and the New Muslim Youth Culture"

Omid Safi (Duke University) - "Memories of Muhammad"

John Kiser - "Commander of the Faithful: The Life and Times of Emir Abd El-Kader"

Faisal Devji (Oxford University) - "The Terrorist in Search of Humanity"

Mehdi Aminrazavi (University of Mary Washington) - "The Wine of Wisdom: The Life, Poetry, and Philosophy of Omar al-Khayyam"
