  Home to approximately one-fifth of the world's Muslim population, Indonesia and Malaysia are often overlooked or misrepresented in media discourses about Islam. This book dispels the notion that Islam is monolithic, militaristic, and primarily Middle Eastern and emphasizes upon its performative nature in contemporary Indonesia and Malaysia.
