“This collection of articles is a fitting tribute to a scholar who has set the standard and ‘defined the field’ of research on Muslim communities in Europe. For those who have studied under, worked with, or benefited from, Jørgen S. Nielsen’s personal commitment to and academic pursuits of accurate descriptions and understandings of the various Muslim communities in Europe, this volume will not disappoint. It demonstrates how indebted many of us are to the work of Jørgen S. Nielsen.”David D. Grafton, Hartford Seminary, The Duncan Black Macdonald Center for the Study of Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations“Jørgen S. Nielsen is rightfully acknowledged as a pioneer of the Muslims in Europe research, continuously authoring prolific texts. Whilst celebrating Nielsen’s research legacy, this collection of articles from some of the leading scholars in the field also contributes with vital and intriguing perspectives on Muslims in Europe.”Jonas Otterbeck, professor of Islamic Studies, Lund University
