Living for Allah. Pious Muslims, as stated in a verse of the Quran, are "closer to God than their own jugular vein." They dedicate themselves particularly to their religion, viewing this world only as a transitional stage to eternal life in paradise, and strive to adhere to God's commandments in their daily lives. There is almost no reliable knowledge about this conservative segment of German Islam, which is often classified as fundamentalist. Susanne Schröter has researched in Wiesbaden mosque communities for three years and provides a unique insight into the lives and thoughts of devout Muslims in this book. Furthermore, she demonstrates the programs through which a typical German city has been striving for integration for decades.
