I am a scholar of religion and capitalism, and my work interrogates “Islamic” and “ethical” financial technologies, while exploring socialities based on care and solidarity. My current book project, “Relational Economies: Islam and Capitalism in the United States,” examines the innovation of philanthropy and financial capitalism among Muslim communities in the United States. Bringing religion and capital into conversation with epistemologies of relationality, my monograph aims to contribute to not only scholarly work at the intersection of religion, economy, and technology but also the search to imagine and implement alternative communal and cosmological relationalities amidst widely criticized products and systems within and beyond Muslim communities. My research has been supported by grants and awards from the Social Science Research Council and Lake Institute on Faith and Giving, among others.
