Muslim Mothering is an interdisciplinary volume, concentrating on the experiences of Muslim mothers, largely in the contemporary period.

In this memoir, Jasjit Sangha poignantly shows how the pressure to be a “good mother” and “good step-mother” left her feeling inadequate, resentful and angry as she negotiated loyalty conflicts and cultural differences in her bi-racial step-family.

As the socioeconomic and cultural expectations of what constitutes "good motherhood" grow.
