Description:	My interest in the research questions that I address in this book, about identity and upbringing in South Asian British Muslim1 families, emerged from a combination of personal life experiences and intellectual curiosities. I have been asked many times since the start of this project why I decided to research the experiences of Muslim parents bringing up their children in Britain, and those of young Muslims growing up in a Western non-Muslim society. I normally have more than one answer to this question: these are topical and relevant issues; the project provides an understanding of diversity in contemporary societies; and it produces new knowledge about communities that are often stereotyped. Moreover, this research does not exist in a void and another strong motivation for me to undertake this work was to try and understand how it is to be a British Muslim today
