ABSTRACT
Chapter Two provides an elaborate understanding of the notion of ‘post-Islamism’ by introducing a cohort of post-Islamist young women and placing them in a position between ‘religious people’ and ‘Islamists’ based on their worldviews and their activism in the public sphere. Drawing from Asef Bayat's definition of 'post-Islamism’ as reconciling a set of duals, including the sacred and the secular, traditionalism and modernity, religiosity and rights, the Chapter sheds light on the underlying conceptualizations that would help post-Islamists attain such reconciliation. The Chapter further points to the connectivity between the notion of ‘good company’ and the nature of da'wa as espoused by the women under study.
