Please describe in 175-200 words, each chapter assigned for this week’s class. Then, in 175-200 words, discuss why you think I titled this week's theme "practicing Islam." What do you think it means to "practice" Islam in this context -- in other words, what seems to be the common thread that runs through each of these chapters? How does "lived" Islam as it emerges in these readings, differ from our expectations of what "religion" is supposed to be?
