Dr. Ihsan Bagby, a scholar and professor of Islamic Studies, is a leading expert on the demographics and dynamics of American mosques. He is best known for his work on the U.S. Mosque Survey, which is conducted every ten years by the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding (ISPU) and other Islamic organizations.
In his research on American mosques, Bagby highlights key trends, such as the growth in the number of mosques across the U.S. and the increasing diversity of Muslim communities. His surveys reveal that many American mosques are expanding both in terms of membership and activities, with more mosques engaging in social services, interfaith outreach, and community engagement. One of Bagby's findings is that despite challenges, mosques have become vital centers for civic participation and spiritual life for American Muslims.
Bagby also examines issues faced by mosques, such as financing, space limitations, and the evolving role of women in mosque leadership and participation. His work provides insight into how mosques serve not only as places of worship but also as hubs for cultural identity and social activism.
For a deeper dive into Dr. Bagby's work, including his research on mosques, you can refer to reports like the U.S. Mosque Survey or his interviews and presentations on the topic.
