The term \"mechanics,\" as used in fields such as quantum mechanics or classical mechanics, refers to a branch of physical science that delves into the intricate workings of complex systems, machines, or even organizations and institutions. Similarly, Muslim Mechanics is the study of how Islamic policies, activities, and functions impact populations and organizations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy taking a similar approach, Muslim Mechanics goes beyond mere observation and examines the functional and technical aspects of actions to assess their impact on both an organizational and institutional level. As implied by the term \"mechanics,\" Islam is a complex system characterized by a multitude of policies, rules, and beliefs that function harmoniously, akin to a precision Swiss watch. In this regard, Dr. Brewton presents a fair and objective perspective on a religion that is often misperceived as secular.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 216 x 140 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781803410500\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Charles H.
