The book offers an insightful case study on the impact of Islamic aid organizations on Muslim minorities in Eastern Europe, particularly the Pomaks in Bulgaria. Kristen Ghodsee explores the shift towards a new orthodox Islam influenced by Saudi-inspired imams and aid workers, unraveling the reasons behind this transformation in a specific town. This examination not only highlights the changes in Islamic practices but also serves as a significant contribution to understanding the dynamics of faith and identity in the region.
