For Neville Hoad

Contents

I have been thinking about the modern intellectual and semantic history of the term Islam for a few years and began my work on the Genealogies of Islam in 2008, soon after my last book, Desiring Arabs, had come out. As soon as I began to research the book, however, I realized that I needed to explain my point of departure for this endeavor, namely the uses to which the term Islam has been put by European and Euro-American liberalism (and increasingly by Arab and Muslim liberals) since the eighteenth century. I initially decided to do so in a long introduction to the project but quickly realized that an introduction would not suffice as the issues multiplied and needed a more extensive scholarly treatment. This is when I decided that I had to write a book on the topic to contextualize my forthcoming project. This is how Islam in Liberalism was born.

The book was written over a protracted period of time. The first drafts of the summer of 2013 in Amman when the book was finalized.

and comments, providing me with important suggestions, critiques, and recommendations. I am grateful for their efforts and exemplary friendship and collegiality. Talal Asad and Anne Norton provided meticulously detailed critiques, insights, and suggestions that have improved the book immeasurably. I cannot begin to express my appreciation and gratitude for their serious engagement with my work.

At Columbia, my students in my seminars Psychoanalysis, Identity, and Culture and Universalizing Sexuality also provided important suggestions for and provided important suggestions. I am grateful to all of them.

Neville Hoad read the manuscript since its early infancy and in several of its metamorphoses and reread its final form at least twice. I am indebted to him forever! The book, like all my previous books, bears the mark of his numerous suggestions and insights. Neville has been my main intellectual interlocutor since we met in 1991 at a party at the apartment of our common friend Aamir Mufti, a few weeks after we had both started graduate school at Columbia University. Ever since then our intellectual and political concerns have defined our friendship and scholarly and political alliance. His support and love have sustained me ever since. I dedicate this book to him as a token of my friendship and appreciation.
