The role of Al-Azhar, Al-Medina, and Al-Mustafa are examined through case studies of academic institutions to explore how ideas and Islamic discourses are transmitted within Muslim communities. The study challenges assumptions about the hegemonic power of certain Islamic movements to penetrate all societies and highlights the complexity of how different communities receive and interpret these ideas. It emphasizes that the interaction between global and local Islam, as well as the outcomes of these exchanges, depend on both the strategies of those promoting these ideologies and the characteristics of the recipient communities. The volume details how graduates from these institutions carry ideas back to their countries, sometimes with a desire to reform their societies.
