本文的重点是西方，特别是英国，以穆斯林信仰为基础的援助组织的出现和运作方式。通过对全球伊斯兰救济组织和穆斯林之手的案例研究，本书考察了这些人道主义参与者在穆斯林占多数的背景下产生的实际和潜在的附加价值，有时来自西方或与西方有关的援助参与者被一些人视为西方列强政治议程的工具，或正面临其后果。该研究分析了穆斯林基于信仰的援助组织的跨国网络，他们与当地基于信仰的非政府组织（ngo）的实施伙伴关系，以及他们在不安全环境中的安全地位和进入不安全环境的途径，并借鉴了中亚、伊拉克和巴基斯坦的实地实例和意见。因此，它认为有理由扩大穆斯林援助行动者的作用，因为在这一领域存在的社会和政治现实不能总是由占主导地位的国际发展办法有效解决。
This paper focuses on the emergence and modus operandi of Muslim faith-based aid organisations from the West, particularly those from the United Kingdom. Through case studies of Islamic Relief Worldwide and Muslim Hands, it examines the actual and potential added value generated by these humanitarian players in Muslim-majority contexts at times when aid actors from or associated with the West are being perceived by some as instrumental to the political agendas of Western powers, or are being confronted with the consequences thereof. The study analyses Muslim faith-based aid organisations' transnational networks, their implementing partnerships with local faith-based non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and their security position within and their access to insecure contexts, drawing on field examples and opinion from Central Asia, Iraq and Pakistan. It thereby argues that there is ground for an expansion of the role of Muslim aid actors, because of the existence of social and political realities in the field that cannot be always effectively tackled by the dominant international development approaches.
