Water bodies vanish, political bodies teeter on the precipice of suppression, and human bodies endure the threat of annihilation at the hands of hateful and xenophobic fascism. The biological body, once mere vessel for the intellect, has emerged as a vital component of identity. The black body and female body, bound by historical narratives, have become focal points of the BLM and #MeToo movements, demanding justice and equality. Moreover, posthumanism, evolving sexuality, and identity politics challenge our preconceived notions and boundaries regarding bodies. The once-revered monolithic human body, once perceived as divine perfection, has been swiftly discarded in favor of the next, more advanced model.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this edition, we delve into the realm of the bodily familiar, celestial bodies, metaphorical invisibilities, and those under the microscope—all possessing the potential to wield immense power and bring our fragile world to a standstill. As we venture into the future, this issue beckons readers to prepare for a new physique, one capable of thriving in a world surpassing our current predicaments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout Critical Muslim: A quarterly publication dedicated to showcasing groundbreaking ideas and issues related to Islam and its significance in a rapidly evolving, interconnected world.
