Abstract

The public conversation about Islam in Germany often simplifies its complexities, overlooking the vibrant and at times clashing internal discussions within Muslim communities. This recent study offers a novel comparative analysis that highlights the surprising similarities between two seemingly opposing movements: ultra-conservative Salafism and progressive, LGBTQI+-inclusive Muslim groups. What makes this research particularly insightful is its direct comparison within a European context—a juxtaposition rarely explored before.
