The spread of Islam and the process of Islamisation has attracted the attention of scholars working on many diverse parts of the Islamic world. However, such research has often been carried out in isolation, and our understanding of these major historical phenomena remains quite rudimentary. This volume aims to address this lacuna by providing a comparative perspective through studies of Islamisation that address both its historical trajectory and the methodological problems in its study from across the Islamic world, from Africa to China, from the 7th century until c. 1800.
