Zusammenfassung:"Everyday Shiʿism in South Asia is an introduction to the everyday lived experiences of Shiʿi women and men in South Asia. This text introduces and contextualizes ritual performances, material objects and their practices, festivals, literature and aesthetics, vow-making, and festivals of South Asian Shiʿa through primary sources, ethnographic data, and images. Everyday Shiʿism includes rituals and traditions of devotion to the Imams and Ahl-e Bait (the family of the Prophet Muhammad) among Hindus and Sufi-oriented Sunnis. By focusing on the idea of the everyday, this book considers the diverse ways that the Shiʿa are participants in and contributors to South Asian religious culture and history, as well as to a broader Islamic humanistic tradition"
