It builds upon a database of more than 600 Muslim non-profit associations, foundations and grass-roots organisations whose activities are traced through extensive use of social media. The first part of the book scrutinises the varieties of their activities and operational spaces, their campaigns and target groups, alongside their local, regional, national and international connections. The second part analyses contemporary debates on infaq, sadaqa, waqf and zakat as well as Islamic banking and micro-finance schemes for promoting social welfare among Muslim communities in Ghana"-- |cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Muslims |zGhana. 650 0 Non-governmental organizations |zGhana. 650 0 Faith-based community organizing |zGhana. 650 0 Faith-based human services |zGhana. 650 0 Social media |xReligious aspects |xIslam. 650 6 Musulmans |zGhāna. 650 6 Organisations non gouvernementales |zGhāna. 650 6 Services sociaux basés sur la foi |zGhāna. 650 6 Médias sociaux |xAspect religieux |xIslam. 776 08 |iOnline version:Weiss, Holger. |tMuslim empowerment in Ghana |dLeiden ; Boston : Brill, [2024] |z9789004699267 |w(DLC) 2024022545 902 000088300 |wcopy |120240904154943.0 914 (OCoLC)on1430654974 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240911 |eprocessed |f1430654974
