Two Excellent Sources For Islamic Studies

Here are two excellent sites I found while researching today's topics on Islam.

A daily blog of news from the Middle East:

Informed Comment

Thoughts on the Middle East, History, and Religion

Juan Cole is Professor of History at the University of Michigan

An Academic website:

Islam and Islamic Studies Resources

Webby nominated (2002) website of Dr. Alan Godlas, Professor, University of Georgia.
Note that the vast majority of religion sites on the Web are established by committed believers. Although this presents certain problems (one of which is the variable quality of the material), its virtue is that the discourse of believers is directly accessible to students of religion. The articles linked on this site have been written both by Muslim and non-Muslim scholars as well as informed believers. Of course, the views expressed in the links connected to this site are not necessarily the views of Dr. Godlas or the University of Georgia.
