Description
As Critical Muslim celebrates ten years of insight and thought, the theme of biography fittingly challenges its readers: to reflect on our past, our memories and our stories, and to look ahead towards what we may leave behind for the stories yet to be told. Stories have always been an
essential aspect of human societyâ from the cave paintings in Sulawesi, dating back over 43,000 years, and oral tales conveyed from bard to audience, to the written word, and now the projected image, on screens large and small. As memory and history become increasingly important for a deeper
understanding of the present and our emerging futures, this issue explores how biography allows for something more personalâ for the myths and fables of childhood to come to lifeâ and offers snapshots of history to be opened up. We explore a rich historical tradition of biography in Islamic
societies, and explore the ways biographies have influenced Muslim thought and culture. Through biography, we can learn much about ourselves, by stepping out of our own worlds and taking on the lives of others.
