Abstract

This article continues to reassess Islam’s place within American religious history by examining Muslim leaders and communitieIslamic History in America has generally been associated with African Americans and 20. century immigration population. Recent studies by scholars such as Yvonne Yazbeck Haddad, Sulayman Nyang, Allan Austin, Aminah McCloud, Richard Turner, Jane I. Smith, Umar F. Abd-Allah and Kathleen M. Moore have begun to contest this notion. Therefore, there is a real dearth of scholarly work on Islam in general in this country, not to mention the study of the history of Islam in the United StateWhen compared to critical studies of the history of Islam in China or Islam in Western Europe, very little work has been done here. It were almost as though the history of Islam in this country did not merit serious examination. Actually this paper is part of a much larger work in progress in which writer intends to approach this study using the analytical tools of cultural geography, cultural studies and diaspora studies, looking at the roles that notions of gender, race, nationhood, heresy, borders, fluidities, etc., and their intersections play in the shaping of this history and its historiography.

Özet

Günümüzde ABD’de yapılan pek çok akademik çalışmalar dahil ABD’de İslam’ın tarihiyle alakalı yazılanların ekseriyeti Afro-Amerikan müslümanlar üzerinedir. Zira bu insanların ABD’deki tarihi geçmişleri Kolomb’un Amerika’yı keşfetmesinden önceki yüzyıllara kadar uzanmaktadır. Genellikle Afrika kıtasından köle olarak getirilen bu insanlardan İslam kimliklerini muhafaza ederek hayatlarını devam ettirenler az sayıda olmasına rağmen XX. yüzyıldan önce ABD’de İslam üzerine yapılan araştırmaların çoğunluğu onlar üzerinedir. Bundan dolayı ABD'de İslâm’ın tarihi ve tarih yazımı araştırmasının parçası olması ümidiyle hazırlanan bu makale rapor niteliğinde bir çalışmadır. Bu rapor kültürel coğrafyanın, kültürel araştırmaların ve diaspora araştırmalarının analitik araçlarını kullanarak cinsiyet, ırk, milliyetçilik, aykırı düşünceler, sınırlar, değişkenlikler gibi vb. kavramların rollerine ve onların kesiştikleri noktaların bu tarih ve onun yazıcılığının şekillenmesinde oynadıkları rollere değinilmektedir
