    Prisms of Palestine: Palestinian Muslim Narratives beyond Reductive Caricatures and Conflict Dichotomies
    (Rabbi Myer and Dorothy Kripke Center, Creighton University, 2024) Hajj, Nadya; Lybarger, Loren D.
    Narrative simplification of Islam has accompanied the on-going Nakba, or “Catastrophe,” of Palestinian occupation and dispossession. Narrative comprises a closed coherent structure that internally refracts external events thereby illuminating the world and creating a shared identity that motivates action. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork examples, this article challenges the narrative reduction of Islam by showing how Islamic liturgical practices and conceptions of identity generate diverse Palestinian self-understandings amidst a fragmented geography. In so doing, it provides insight into how Islamic practices can generate diverse narratives that may or may not track with dominant discourses about Palestinians. It also shows how these practices (and narratives) can sustain cohesion across political, religious/secular, geographic, and even ethnic/national differences within and beyond conditions of dispersion, occupation, and dispossession.

    Consequences of Islamophobia: A Systematic Review
    (Rabbi Myer and Dorothy Kripke Center, Creighton University, 2024) De Nolf, Ans; d’Haenens, Leen
    Far too often, the subtle yet pervasive effects of Islamophobia on Muslims remain largely overlooked within the realm of academic research. The objective of this systematic review is to bridge this significant gap by scrutinizing peer-reviewed studies published from 1990 to 2022. Through a thorough screening process, we assessed 2,402 titles, ultimately including thirty-seven articles in our comprehensive analysis. Guided by the 2020 PRISMA framework, our investigation delves into the multifaceted consequences of Islamophobia on various dimensions of well-being, encompassing mental health issues, such as anxiety and depression, as well as tangible and behavioral outcomes. Our analysis reveals that existing literature primarily focuses on the individual consequences of Islamophobia, including mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, and social and economic outcomes. Additionally, we identify significant communal impacts on Muslim communities as a whole, such as reduced social belonging and cohesion.
