Drawing on research conducted with Iraqi refugees in Damascus and Syrian refugees on the Turkish-Syrian border, Dr. Zaman considers how displaced people re-imagine understandings of religious traditions to produce a distinctive geography of belonging. In so doing, a window opens for us to reflect on what decolonial readings of refuge and the sacred can offer.
