{"product_id":"ninety-nine","title":"Ninety-Nine","description":"According to Islamic tradition, God has at least ninety-nine names. In Ninety-Nine, Amira Mittermaier presents ninety-nine short chapters based on her fieldwork and interviews with over one hundred Egyptians about who God is to them. In Egypt's turbulent twenty-first century-the Egyptian uprising, a military coup, a pandemic, a climate crisis, wars across the region-God is talked about endlessly yet remains elusive. Ninety-Nine follows Allah into different spaces and conversations without ever claiming to get the full picture. We meet a Cairo beggar, an enigmatic dervish, a queer agnostic, and a Salafi housewife. We meet a depressed God, a cute God, a God who has stopped caring, a loving God, and a God who is a bully. We learn about divine interventions, big and small, and about daily struggles, even fights, with God. An intimate mosaic of Allah, Ninety-Nine celebrates the multiplicity inherent to the Islamic tradition and offers insight into how present-day Muslims grapple with big theological questions amidst their busy lives.","brand":"Duke University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57563893956934,"sku":"9781478039068","price":38.19,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0852\/3081\/3510\/files\/5958beb5cc0d15403f6e3b83dd6ad52f8551c45130e3da39ea97c3e8d1bab23c.jpg?v=1791624226","url":"https:\/\/www.averdo.com\/products\/ninety-nine","provider":"Averdo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
