Abstract: This introduction to the special ‘Muslim Futures’ in the Journal of Muslims in Europe expounds the new development of Muslims imagining their future in Europe. This special has selected a number of themes: AI and transhumanism, children’s literature, environment and sustainability, pedagogy and education, charity, urban spaces, sufism, and art, beauty, and ethics. These contributions are not meant to provide a conclusive insight on Muslim futures but are merely steppingstones in exploring new avenues of study and knowledge production. ‘Muslim futures’ is a new trend with global implications, and this Introduction provides background to this trend and argues that the study of this trend will constitute a much-needed academic alternative in Muslim and Islam Studies in Europe.
