This book explores how young Muslims in the Anglophone West navigate faith, identity, and belonging through digital media. Drawing on 122 in-depth interviews across Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States, it shows how online spaces shape religious, social, and political life. Muslim youth use social platforms to share modest fashion practices, build friendships, join virtual Qur an circles, and engage in hashtag activism while also confronting Islamophobia, surveillance, disinformation, and algorithmic bias. Blending insights from digital religion, media studies, political communication, and sociology, the book applies concepts such as networked publics, participatory culture, and third space to examine authority, visibility, and resistance. It reveals how young Muslims create hybrid identities, practice digital citizenship, and foster resilience, offering a fresh perspective on how technology, culture, and religion intersect. This timely study speaks to readersinterested in youth culture, religion, digital politics, and twenty-first-century social change.
