VIII. Internet Resources

There are many sites on the Web that focus on 

Islam, but they are of varying quality, and, like 

other Web sites, they are prone to disappear or 

change their URLs. Some are scholarly, many are 

devotional or seek to explain the religion from the 

point of view of Muslim believers. The following 

is a list of useful, well-organized sites that have 

been maintained and updated for several years.
