The last decades have seen a significant increase in queer Muslim groups active in the United Kingdom. While separating themselves from mainstream Muslim and queer communities, these groups align themselves with the BIPOC queer community by expressing how queer Muslims are experiencing similar oppression due to islamophobic and queerphobic structures. These queer Muslim groups has variating focus, with some focusing on communal support, others on cultural-religious activities and others on political activism. Simultaneously as these groups have emerged, the field of research regarding LGBTQIA+ and Islam has grown immensely. Empirical research on the subject has tended to focus either on the, so-called, identity reconciliation for queer Muslim individuals or the social positionality of queer Muslim groups. However, as previous research has shown, the identity making of queer Muslim actors do not occur in a vacuum, but it is influenced by the surrounding context. Hence, to fully understand the identity making of queer Muslim actors, this PhD project in Sociology of Religion will through interviews, participant observations and digital material from social media to examine how queer Muslim identities are shaped in relation to queer Muslim groups in the United Kingdom.
