ABSTRACT:
This dissertation is the first to examine the various Muslim communities of Toronto. Toronto has a Muslim population of some 200,000 of the over 500,000 Muslims in Canada. This dissertation provides a description of many of the Muslim organizations in Toronto. The description and analysis of those organizations are based on reading texts, conducting interviews, participation and long-term participant observation. Muslims in Toronto struggle with being members of a minority tradition in a city that is the most cosmopolitan in the world. They are also forced to deal with the issues that arise from living in the modern North American world. It is the interplay of these factors, being a minority, being multicultural, being North American, speaking English, having internal diversity and being modern that creates Canadian ways of being Muslim. Canadian Islam offers an important window through which to view a future role for Islam to play in the world. Muslims in Toronto are engaged in creating distinct religious lives for themselves. This thesis argues that Islam in Toronto is not simply a collection of diaspora Islams, but instead is its own local manifestation of Canadian Islam.
