Frontmatter -- Contents -- Preface -- Map: Muslim networks in the nineteenth century -- Introduction -- 1. Muslim Reformists and the Transition to English Rule -- 2 The Making of the "Indian Arab" and the Tale of Sayyid Fadl -- 3 Rahmatullah Kairanwi and the Muslim Cosmopolis -- 4 Haji Imdadullah Makki in Mecca -- 5 Nawab Siddiq Hasan Khan and the Muslim Cosmopolis -- 6 Maulana Jafer Thanesri and the Muslim Ecumene -- Conclusion -- Abbreviations -- Notes -- Acknowledgments -- Index
Summary: Seema Alavi challenges the idea that all pan-Islamic configurations are anti-Western or pro-Caliphate. A pan-Islamic intellectual network at the cusp of the British and Ottoman empires became the basis of a global Muslim sensibility-a political and cultural affiliation that competes with ideas of nationhood today as it did in the last century.
