Dear colleagues,

This book, which is a printed edition of the Special Issue "Understanding Muslim Mobilities and Gender" that was published in Social Sciences, explores the intersections between Islam and Im/mobilities through a critical lens of Gender. The articles focus on the multifaceted aspects of space and place, migration, pilgrimage, gender and intersectionality within and across an array of international contexts.
