This book examines a significant part of New Zealand history through a critical analysis of the Muslim community in Christchurch, a neglected but important aspect of the past in this South Pacific nation-state.
Islam is one of the fastest growing religions in New Zealand and one of the least understood by the wider public. However, the historic reality demonstrates that the first Muslim settlers arrived within 15 years of the proclamation of the colony and many have been living quietly in this country and contributing to society ever since. Drury elucidates how New Zealand Muslims have proved it possible to integrate into an Anglo-European society whilst retaining an idiosyncratic sense of Islamic communal identity.
A useful reference for scholars and educators curious to learn more about Muslims in New Zealand and about the Christchurch Mosque communities before the 2019 shootings.
Abdullah Drury is a PhD candidate with Victoria University of Wellington and a University of Waikato MPhil graduate, researching the history of the New Zealand Muslim community. He also holds a BA in History and a Master of Arts with First Class Honours in History from the University of Waikato.
