An understanding of the social and cultural background to current conflicts is a step towards resolving them and this project is a significant contribution to Australia's understanding of the world and of Muslims. It will explain how and why many non-Arab Muslims are drawn towards the Arab world, by virtue of what it can offer them and of what the alternatives are increasingly failing to offer, both on a personal level and in a political sense. This is a study of African Muslims, but as a comparative study it has a direct relevance to Australia's relationship with the Islamic world, Arab, African or Asian. Ultimately, it will help to explain why contemporary events seem to have led to the clash of two civilisations, the West and Islam.

了解当前冲突的社会和文化背景是解决冲突的一个步骤，该项目对澳大利亚了解世界和穆斯林作出了重大贡献。它将解释许多非阿拉伯穆斯林是如何以及为什么被吸引到阿拉伯世界的，凭借它可以提供给他们什么，以及其他选择越来越无法提供什么，无论是在个人层面还是在政治意义上。这是一项关于非洲穆斯林的研究，但作为一项比较研究，它与澳大利亚与伊斯兰世界、阿拉伯、非洲或亚洲的关系有直接关系。最终，它将有助于解释为什么当代事件似乎导致了西方和伊斯兰两种文明的冲突。
