Thanks Rhys!

Well that was quick work @abdulazim.bsky.social!

Huge congrats, and can't wait to read this.

Thanks

I'm excited to reveal the cover of a new book on the history of Muslims in Wales.

The culmination of years of research that shows how long Islam has been a Welsh religion.

I think it's partly that the only way to deal with the obviously bad faith engagement that would follow is witty comebacks, playing dumb, or playing straight. Not really worth it in grand scheme.

Over on Twitter the DogeWales account has tweeted a video of Mark Drakeford speaking about the need to reflect the Muslim history of Wales in museums, which is a perfect segue for me to speak about my research on that very topic, but genuinely can't muster the energy.

When referring to Yr Eryri in English, should it be "the Yr Eryri" or "the Eryri". With Arabic, I probably would double-up in some cases (i.e. the al-Bukhari collection), but not every time and I'm not sure why.
