Overview

This article reveals how piety is negotiated and contested in the Tablighi Jamaat, highlighting locality and identity dynamics in Southeast Asia.

Key Points

  • Piety within the Tablighi Jamaat is shaped by ongoing negotiations between global and local realities, and is not fixed.
  • Key arenas of hierarchy include language, ethnicity, gender, and travel experiences (safar) within the movement.
  • The article employs theories like locality (Appadurai) and social constructs of piety (Asad & Mahmood).
  • Findings contribute to understanding transnational Islam amid cultural resistance and social transformation.
