Abstract
This chapter discusses the multifaceted projects of Muslim advocates to educate Muslim communities about domestic violence (DV) and offer Islam as a resource for ending abuse. Such awareness work forms one point of a triangle in Muslim DV efforts, combined with offering services and resources as the second point, and educating mainstream providers and the larger public about Muslim needs and perspectives as the third. For many American Muslims, domestic violence awareness competes with other issues, among them increasing anti-Muslim public sentiment and hate crimes, foreign policy issues, and government surveillance as part of the “War on Terror,” not to mention concerns about practicing their religion, living life, and just generally being human. The chapter then presents moments of profound insight and analysis from domestic violence awareness events held in Muslim community settings. It also considers several examples of how male Muslim scholars and leaders have developed religious arguments against domestic violence in public speeches and online lectures.
